Commenting on the announcement, Trevor Elbourne, interim CEO, said: “Atomos is pleased to secure an increase in debt funding which offers more flexibility in respect of working capital management. This is necessary given the current global supply chain environment. This was highlighted to us as sales slowed at the start of the calendar year, whilst at the same time we built inventory levels.

Sales have since improved with the reintroduction of the promotional activity in April and the inventory build is planned to unwind early in the next financial year. However, given the global supply chain environment we consider it appropriate to have a long term increased and more flexible facility in place.

It is pleasing that, as a profitable business, Atomos has been able to attract increased debt funding to ensure we have a strong balance sheet. The facility is available for 2.5 years and gives us the funding to execute our growth plans which we believe will reflect in shareholder value over the coming year.”
