Input Capital Corp. Announces $25 Million Revolving Credit Facility
REGINA, June 22, 2016 /CNW/ - Input Capital Corp. ("Input") (TSX Venture: INP) (US: INPCF), the world's first agriculture streaming company, is pleased to announce that it has secured a $25 million revolving credit facility with HSBC Bank Canada (the "Credit Agreement"). This revolving credit facility bolsters Input's ability to provide working capital solutions to western Canadian canola farmers and is available to fund upfront payments to farmers as well as Input's own working capital requirements, if necessary.
"Input Capital has grown rapidly over the past four years by creating a new way for farmers to fund their working capital needs, which are not met by traditional funding sources," said President & CEO Doug Emsley. "This new revolving credit facility will enable us to help even more farmers address their ongoing working capital requirements and take advantage of opportunities on their farms by efficiently expanding the amount of capital available to Input for deployment into streaming contracts.
"Input has always maintained a conservative approach to funding its balance sheet, and we plan to continue that way. But having access to a $25 million revolving credit facility will help bridge any short-term needs for capital in an efficient and cost effective manner."
The terms of the Credit Agreement are consistent with market standards for the industry and include customary security agreements, conditions, covenants and representations and warranties. A copy of the Credit Agreement will be filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) and describes additional terms and conditions of the agreement.
NEITHER TSX VENTURE EXCHANGE NOR ITS REGULATION SERVICES PROVIDER (AS THAT TERM IS DEFINED IN POLICIES OF THE TSX VENTURE EXCHANGE) ACCEPTS RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS RELEASE.
