Analysis · CHGA · Technology
Change Agents Corporation has taken on a high-cost $825,000 loan from Agile Lending, but after repaying a prior loan and covering fees, it nets only $254,350. The total repayment of $1,188,000 over 30 weeks implies an effective annualized interest rate well into triple digits, signaling severe cash constraints. As part of the deal, the company issued 360,000 shares to the lender as a forbearance fee, adding dilution at a time when the stock is trading near its 52-week low. The loan includes a confessed judgment provision, allowing the lender to obtain a judgment without notice upon default, which heightens risk for equity holders.
