Safe Harbor secures debt modification with credit union

GOLDEN, Colo. - Safe Harbor Financial (NASDAQ:SHFS), a fintech company serving the regulated cannabis industry with a market capitalization of $17.82 million, has renegotiated its debt terms with Partner Colorado Credit Union (PCCU). The revised agreement, which includes a two-year interest-only period for February and March 2025, is expected to free up over $6 million in cash flow for Safe Harbor by deferring principal payments. According to InvestingPro analysis, the company currently trades at an attractive P/E ratio of 4.18, suggesting potential undervaluation compared to peers.

The note’s interest rate will remain at 4.25% for the rest of its term, now extended to October 2030. This move is seen as a strategic effort by Safe Harbor to strengthen its financial position and provide room for new growth opportunities. With a current ratio of 0.85 and annual revenue of $15.66 million, the debt restructuring appears timely. Terry Mendez, CEO of Safe Harbor, expressed confidence that the modification offers substantial flexibility for the company’s future endeavors.

PCCU’s President and CEO, Doug Fagan, highlighted the mutual benefit of the agreement, noting that Safe Harbor’s success is directly linked to the welfare of PCCU’s members. Both parties view the debt restructuring as a commitment to Safe Harbor’s long-term success and stability. The company maintains an impressive 100% gross profit margin, and InvestingPro analysts expect net income growth this year, suggesting potential for improved financial performance.

Safe Harbor has been a pioneer in providing traditional banking services to businesses in the cannabis sector, including compliance and monitoring services that adhere to the Bank Secrecy Act and FinCEN guidelines. The company has processed over $25 billion in deposit transactions, covering operations in more than 41 states and U.S. territories with regulated cannabis markets.
