180 Degree Capital Corp. Notes Opportunistic and Discounted Retirement of Preferred Stock and Repurchase of Notes by its Portfolio Company Synchronoss Technologies, Inc. (SNCR)

MONTCLAIR, N.J., July 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 180 Degree Capital Corp. (NASDAQ: TURN) (“180 Degree Capital”) noted today the announcement by its portfolio company, Synchronoss Technologies, Inc. (SNCR), that SNCR has opportunistically retired at discounted prices its outstanding Series B Preferred Stock and $19.7 million of its outstanding 8.375% Senior Notes due 2026 (“Senior Notes”) funded by a new $75.0 million term loan with alternative credit manager, AS Birch Grove. SNCR reported that the combined transactions are expected to result in a $7.3 million improvement to its capital structure plus approximately $10.6 million in pre-tax cost savings. The announcement can be viewed at .

“We would like to congratulate the team at SNCR for taking advantage of a timely opportunity to eliminate its outstanding preferred stock while also reducing its outstanding debt at advantageous prices,” said Kevin M. Rendino, Chief Executive Officer of 180 Degree Capital. “We have always lived by the adage that the best time to do something is when you do not have to do anything. SNCR’s transformation into a cloud-only business, and its strong financial performance, allowed the company to attract the interest of a new lending partner, AS Birch Grove, thus enabling SNCR to take advantage of this unique opportunity to both deleverage and materially reduce expenses. This transaction is additive to SNCR’s ability to generate free cash flow in 2024 and beyond. We are proud to have had the opportunity to work directly with SNCR’s management team and board of directors to help achieve this important milestone.”

“This transaction is a great example of what 180 Degree Capital means by constructive activism,” added Daniel B. Wolfe, President of 180 Degree Capital. “Since our original investment in 2021, we developed a strong relationship with the impressive management team of SNCR. We welcomed the opportunity to join SNCR’s Board of Directors in December 2023 when SNCR’s common stock was trading at $4.66 because we believed that our complementary skill sets could help unlock value for all stakeholders of SNCR. We also believed that there were multiple catalysts that could drive material appreciation in value should they occur. This transaction is just one of these catalysts, and we believe its successful completion sets SNCR up well for the potential to achieve additional ones in 2024 and beyond. We could not be more excited about the potential for SNCR to be a material driver of value appreciation for 180 Degree Capital in the future as well.”
