OLATHE, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 02, 2016--
Hooper Holmes, Inc. (NYSE MKT:HH) announced that it has entered into a new $7 million credit facility agreement with SCM Specialty Finance Opportunities Fund, L.P., an affiliate of CNH Finance, L.P.
This agreement replaces the Company's previous credit facility with ACF FinCo I LP, as assignee of Keltic Financial Partners II, LP, thereby eliminating the requirement of the Company to issue an additional warrant for the purchase of common stock valued at $1.25 million to SWK Funding LLC, the holder of the Company's ongoing April 2015 term loan. Borrowings under the new agreement with SCM Specialty Finance will bear interest at a fluctuating rate that is equal to the Prime Rate plus 5.5%, with an effective rate which is economically equal to the prior agreement with ACF, inclusive of fees and other charges. The new credit facility will be available for general corporate purposes and growth initiatives.
Henry Dubois, President and CEO of Hooper Holmes commented, "As we have discussed, one of our key initiatives has been to improve our capital structure. We have made great strides in doing that since the beginning of the year by raising new equity through our successful Rights Offering, bringing in new capital from an affiliate of Kanon Ventures, repaying principal under our term loan, and establishing this new financing relationship. This new credit facility with SCM, which has the same total cost of funds as our prior agreement with ACF, eliminates the need to issue warrants that would have represented an estimated 7% dilution to our shareholders. We look forward to working with SCM as we execute against our growth-oriented business plan."
