VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 17, 2018 / TIMIA Capital Corporation (“TIMIA” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:TCA) announced that it has entered into a US$2.5 million investment facility for Austin, Texas-based software company, Real Savvy, Inc. ("RealSavvy"). The financing facility includes an initial disbursement of US$1,000,000, which was advanced today, and a further US$1,500,000 to be disbursed upon certain milestones being met over the term of the agreement.

"This is an important first step for TIMIA, as the U.S. SaaS market represents a significant opportunity," said Greg Smith, CIO of TIMIA. "Moreover, this is a great opportunity to finance a private software company, outside the volatility of public markets. RealSavvy’s management understands their market, are efficient with their capital, and the Company’s demonstrable growth is a great match for our revenue-based financing."

"We found that TIMIA’s revenue-based financing was aligned with our sales growth and objective to maintain our ownership position," said Rick Orr, CEO & Co-Founder, RealSavvy Inc. "The overall value proposition for us was a great fit as we have a proven business model that is ideally suited for non-dilutive capital from TIMIA."

TIMIA is continuously seeking new and exciting investments in the software as a service or SaaS industry.Under TIMIA’s revenue-based financing model, TIMIA advances capital to a SaaS business with a recurring revenue stream that allows the portfolio company to make monthly payments to TIMIA that are a combination of principal and interest with a repayment schedule sculpted to the portfolio company's revenue streams. The amounts advanced are secured and may be repaid early, triggering a bonus payment to TIMIA.The Company expects to make further investments in the coming months, in the pursuit of its business model, which is to earn a combination of monthly payments and periodic gains on investments.
