Analysis · VRM · Trade & Services
Vroom's subprime auto lending subsidiary completed a $234.2 million securitization backed by $292.1 million of receivables, a critical funding channel for its lending operations. Separately, controlling holder Mudrick Capital and board chair Robert Mylod's Annox Capital increased the company's convertible note commitments from $50 million to $60 million. Both moves shore up liquidity for a company that has carried a going concern warning, though the ABS notes are non-recourse to Vroom and the convertible notes add future dilution potential.
