Venus Concept secures amended loan terms with Madryn Health Partners

Venus Concept Inc. (NASDAQ:VERO), a medical technology company with annual revenue of $67.2 million and facing an 18.55% year-over-year decline, has entered into agreements with Madryn Health Partners to amend existing loan conditions, according to a recent SEC filing. According to InvestingPro analysis, the company is currently operating with a significant debt burden while quickly burning through cash. On Monday, the company disclosed a Consent Agreement and a Thirteenth Bridge Loan Amendment with the lenders, offering temporary financial relief and extending the maturity date of its bridge loan.

Under the Consent Agreement, dated March 27, 2025, Venus Concept and its subsidiaries, Venus Concept USA, Venus Concept Canada, and Venus Concept Ltd. (collectively, the "Loan Parties"), received a waiver for certain minimum liquidity requirements through April 30, 2025. With total debt of $38.35 million and a current ratio of 1.86, the company’s financial flexibility remains constrained.

Additionally, it permits Venus Concept USA to redirect the April 8, 2025, cash interest payment from each note to the outstanding principal balance, providing some cash flow flexibility.

The Thirteenth Bridge Loan Amendment also dated March 27, modifies the initial Loan and Security Agreement from April 23, 2024. Notably, the amendment extends the bridge loan’s maturity date from March 31, 2025, to April 30, 2025. It also increases the Delayed Draw Commitment from $11 million to $21 million, giving Venus Concept additional borrowing power.

These adjustments come as the company navigates its financial obligations amidst ongoing operational activities. The bridge loan’s maturity extension and the increased borrowing limit offer Venus Concept a buffer to manage its financial position in the near term.

The full text of both the Consent Agreement and the Thirteenth Bridge Loan Amendment are included in the exhibits of the SEC filing. This filing provides investors and stakeholders with transparency regarding Venus Concept’s financial arrangements and the company’s efforts to maintain liquidity and financial stability. With a market capitalization of just $2.41 million and trading at a low revenue valuation multiple, Venus Concept appears undervalued according to InvestingPro’s Fair Value analysis.
