CARY, N.C., Sept. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Fathom Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: FTHM) ("Fathom" or the "Company"), a national, technology-driven, end-to-end real estate services platform integrating residential brokerage, mortgage, title, and SaaS offerings for brokerages and agents, has entered into a securities purchase agreement, under which the Company sold and issued senior secured convertible promissory notes in aggregate principal amount of $5 million (the "Notes") to an existing shareholder, who owns more than 5% of Fathom's common stock, and the chairman of the Company's Board of Directors.
Interest on the Notes will be paid quarterly commencing on October 1, 2025, in cash on the principal amount at a rate which fluctuates every calendar month and is equal to (i) the monthly average Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus (ii) 4% per annum, subject to certain adjustments and a minimum rate of 8%. The Notes have a conversion price of $4.25 per share of common stock, representing an initial conversion premium of approximately 85% above the last reported sale price of Fathom's common stock on September 26th, 2024. The Notes will mature on October 1st, 2026, unless repurchased or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date.
Fathom intends to use the net proceeds from the private placement to accelerate agent and transaction growth.
"This capital allows us to fast-track our plans for agent and transaction growth, focusing on targeted walkovers and acquisitions," said Fathom CEO Marco Fregenal. "The demand for our revenue share model across both agent fee plans highlights our momentum, and this investment affirms our shareholders' belief in our direction."
