(Nasdaq: FTHM) (“Fathom” or the “Company”), a national, technology-driven, end-to-end real estate services platform integrating residential brokerage, mortgage, title, insurance, and SaaS offerings for brokerages and agents, has entered into a securities purchase agreement, under which the Company had sold and issued a senior secured convertible promissory note in a principal amount of $3.5 million (the “Note”) to an existing longstanding institutional investor.

 

Interest on the Note will be paid quarterly 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) 5% per annum, subject to certain adjustments and a minimum rate of 8%.

We are confident in reiterating our guidance for the next two quarters and remain optimistic about our business,” said Fathom CEO Josh Harley.
