Company Brings in New Investor to Consolidate the Majority of Its Outstanding Debt and Reduce Its Obligation to $3.5 Million
NEW YORK, NY- New York, Oct. 15, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DirectView Holdings, Inc. (DIRV), a company focused on ownership and management of leading video and security technology companies, today announced that the Company’s CEO, Roger Ralston, has successfully entered into a large debt restructuring initiative with a new high net worth investor that will eliminate approximately $5.5 million of convertible debt exposure and consolidate that remaining debt to approximately $3.5 million.
The Company has been working with this new investor over the past several months to complete this important milestone for DirectView and its stockholders. The agreement between the Company, its two largest debt holders, and the new investor will result in a significant reduction in penalties and interest. In addition to the reduction in debt, the new investor can potentially provide additional capital and financial flexibility to grow its security and surveillance sales and services business.
Roger Ralston, CEO and Chairman of DirectView stated, “I could not be happier with the outcome of these negotiations to reduce our debt coverage and consolidate our largest outstanding convertible notes. We anticipate this substantial reduction in debt, including over $30,000 in monthly interest payment exposure, will allow us to better utilize our financial resources to expand DirectView’s business for the benefit of our stockholders.”
