“The Avidbank line of credit is another important milestone in USAT’s
growth story,” stated Stephen P. Herbert, USA Technologies Chairman and
CEO. “This financing option not only provides flexibility to fund
important growth initiatives like our JumpStart program, but it is an
important marker in terms of our progress. It points to our ability to
access capital in a way USAT has not been able to do in the past and,
looking forward, it is part of our plan to continue to grow the company
while maintaining a healthy balance sheet. We are extremely pleased that
Avidbank has chosen to provide this financial facility commitment and we
look forward to a strong relationship as USAT becomes a much larger
company.”
“I am pleased we were able to put this facility in place for USA
Technologies,” stated Avidbank Corporate Finance Executive Vice
President, Mike Hansen. “They are a good example of companies we like to
work with as they are a leader in an expanding market place and continue
to demonstrate impressive growth. We look forward to a long relationship
with them.”
