Analysis · KPLT · Trade & Services
Katapult Holdings has obtained its eighth limited waiver from lenders, addressing a failure to maintain Minimum Trailing Three-Month Net Originations as of January 31, 2026. This follows the seventh waiver issued just over a month ago on January 15, 2026. The recurring need for waivers, now eight times since June 2025, signals deep-seated operational challenges and persistent financial distress. While the waiver prevents an immediate default, it underscores the company's ongoing inability to meet its loan covenants, placing it in a precarious financial position and raising significant concerns about its long-term viability and ability to operate without continuous lender concessions.
