"We are pleased to have closed on our debt financing with Pinnacle, which is consistent with our historically disciplined approach to maintain a strong balance sheet and create value for our shareholders," said Brian R. Balbirnie, Issuer Direct's Founder and Chief Executive Officer. "With the drastic changes in the debt market in the last 6 months, we are particularly pleased to have closed this $20 million term loan with Pinnacle, at an interest rate of 6.217% payable over 69 months, which is fixed after hedging the variable rate with an interest rate swap. Additionally, as a result of fully repaying the short-term note relating to the Newswire transaction early, we were able to negotiate $440,000 in interest savings as part of the repayment. Lastly, with the potential Newswire transactional synergies and our recent cost savings initiatives, as well as continued efforts to invest in our sales and marketing teams, we believe we are positioned well for both this year and our long-term ability to execute our strategic plan."

Additional information on the Pinnacle debt financing can be found in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed March 22, 2023 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which may be viewed at the Company's Investor Relations section of its website, located at https://www.issuerdirect.com/company/sec-filings.
