(TheNewswire)
Red Deer, Alberta / TheNewswire / Nov 6, 2017 - Rifco Inc. (TSXV: RFC) is pleased to
announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Rifco National Auto Finance (“Rifco”), has completed its renewal with a Canadian
Schedule 1 Chartered Bank (“Bank”) for $30M.
The Company has been receiving funding from this Bank since July 2012.
The renewed facility limit will accommodate new loan origination growth. Previously securitized loans are not
included in the utilization calculation for the new facility. The terms, conditions and structure of the renewed facility are
substantially similar to the expiring facility. Rifco has four funding facilities that total $230M with over $93M in unused
availability.
Rifco’s loan performance within the funding facility continues to generate scheduled cash holdback releases in
accordance with the facility parameters. The Company must continue to meet certain financial covenants under the renewal. The
Company met all financial covenants in the prior period.
Rifco employs a balanced approach for loan portfolio funding of equity, bank borrowing, subordinated debt and
loan securitization funders. Management remains confident that access to additional funding for future growth will continue to be
available as required.
