Vancouver, B.C., September 19th, 2016 — TIMIA Capital Corp. (“TIMIA” or the “Company”) (TSXV:TCA) is pleased to announce the continuance of its Revenue Finance investment program into high growth private software companies with a follow-on investment into iCompass Technologies Inc. (“iCompass”).
This additional investment of $250,000 brings the total amount of Revenue Financing advanced to iCompass to $1,000,000. In exchange for this follow-on financing, TIMIA will receive an increase to its current monthly royalty on revenue until a defined maximum amount has been reached.
iCompass Technologies Inc. is a privately held corporation located in Kamloops, British Columbia. The company is an industry leader in providing paperless meetings, records and citizen engagement solutions for small and medium sized local governments.
The Company’s cloud-based software is ideal for small and medium sized local governments as it constantly upgrades to suit the customers’ needs. Local governments save thousands annually as this software drastically reduces the amount of time it takes to create an agenda and execute an appropriate follow-up.
Revenue Financing is attractive to companies that are not yet qualified for traditional bank debt but do not want to suffer the dilution and control issues associated with equity issuances. Revenue growth and high gross margins are key attributes required by applicants in order for the successful application of Revenue Financing.
Mike Walkinshaw, CEO of TIMIA, said “We are excited to continue our support of the iCompass team. They have shown significant customer traction since the commencement of our formal investment relationship”. Mike added “We look forward to continuing our momentum with more exciting technology company financings through the remainder of the year and into 2017.”
