Vancouver, B.C., September 14, 2018 - Solution Financial Inc. (TSX-V: SFI.H) (the "Company") is pleased to announce a non-brokered financing up to $2,000,000 principal amount convertible debentures ("Debentures"). The Debentures will mature on the second anniversary of the date of issuance and bear interest at a rate of 3.99% per annum, calculated and paid semi-annually. The principal amount and any accrued and unpaid interest on the Debenture may be convertible into Common shares, in whole or in part, at any time following the Issue Date but on or before the Maturity Date at a conversion price of $0.40 per Share. The debentures and the shares issuable upon the conversion of the debentures will be subject to a statutory resale restriction for four months and one day from the date of closing.
The Company plans to use the proceeds of the financing to expand the Company's portfolio of in-house leases. Having completed the going public transaction in June 2018, Solution is now well positioned to expand its financial resources to support it's auto and marine dealer networks.
"July saw record volume for our in-house leasing group," said Bryan Pang, CEO. The bank prime lending rates increased to 3.70% on July 12, 2018 and brokered lease rates were accordingly higher. As a result, we elected to finance many of our deals with the funds we raised in June to maintain our competitiveness," he continued. "We are actively searching for affordable lending partners to work with, but we see these types of convertible debentures as a very good fit for our growth model which should generate good leveraged returns to our equity investors."
The offering of the Debentures is subject to the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
The Debentures will not be listed or posted for trading on any exchange.
