Positive
  • None.
Negative
  • Extension of payment deadline indicates potential financing difficulties
  • Uncertainty in securing $12.8 million funding by November 29, 2024
  • Non-binding nature of MOU creates additional uncertainty for debt retirement plan

Insights

The amended MOU for RYVYL's debt restructuring reveals concerning financial challenges. The extension of the $12.8 million first tranche payment to November 29 suggests potential difficulties in securing necessary funding. The company's market cap of just $9 million compared to the payment size raises red flags about their ability to meet this obligation.

The non-binding nature of the MOU adds another layer of uncertainty, as there's no guarantee of reaching definitive agreements even if funding is secured. This development could significantly impact the company's capital structure and financial stability. The combination of convertible notes and preferred stock retirement would typically be positive for reducing debt burden, but the execution risk here is substantial given the company's current market value.

SAN DIEGO, CA, Nov. 20, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RYVYL Inc. (NASDAQ: RVYL) ("RYVYL" or the "Company"), a leading innovator of payment transaction solutions leveraging proprietary blockchain ledger and electronic payment technology for diverse international markets, amended the previously announced non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (the “MOU”) for the full repayment and termination of an 8% Senior Convertible Note (the “Note) and the redemption of all shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”). The MOU has been amended to extend the first tranche payment of $12.8 million to November 29, 2024.

The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to raise the financing required, but there is no assurance that it will be able to do so by November 29, 2024. Even if the Company does raise sufficient funds, since the MOU is not binding, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to enter into the Definitive Agreements with the Investor.

These forward-looking statements are based on the Company's current beliefs, assumptions, and expectations regarding future events, which in turn are based on information currently available to the Company. Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding the timing and expectation of revenues from the license described herein and are charactered by future or conditional words such as "may," "will," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate" and "continue" or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss future expectations and plans, which contain projections of future results of operations or financial condition or state other forward-looking information.

A variety of factors could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those expressed in or contemplated by the forward-looking statements, including the risk that the licensee understands and complies with various banking laws and regulations that may impact the licensee's ability to process transactions. For example, federal money laundering statutes and Bank Secrecy Act regulations discourage financial institutions from working with operators of certain industries - particularly industries with heightened cash reporting obligations and restrictions - as a result of which, banks may refuse to process certain payments and/or require onerous reporting obligations by payment processors to avoid compliance risk. These and other risk factors affecting the Company are discussed in detail in the Company's periodic filings with the SEC.
