(OTCQB: BTIM), a data-driven global online marketplace for buying and selling boats and yachts, converted $1,060,000 of its debt into equity last Friday. The board agreed to requests of several holders to convert their notes prior to their due dates. By converting, these noteholders have expressed their continued trust in Boatim's business plan and execution, and rewarded the management's 2020 delivery on milestones.
"This is an important step for the company in terms of liquidity, enabling us to deploy financial resources into scaling the business and our next round of new product features." confirms Boatim's CFO, Ben Salter.
"I am certain that Ben's recent appointment as CFO was one of the reassuring events for those noteholders," adds Wolfgang Tippner, CEO.
