Round
Alongside
Sam Chaney’s induction, NAGA announces the successful close of an $8.2 million
convertible bond financing round with an existing NAGA investor. The financial
round was first introduced a few months ago, in April 2023.
“This
strategic move further solidifies ambitious growth plans and confirms the
shareholder’s faith in the company’s trajectory,” NAGA concluded.
NAGA’s funding
plans came three months after the Hamburg-based fintech firm said it was
discussing a possible merger with an unnamed ‘multi-country brokerage firm’. Despite
initial profitability reports for the early weeks of 2023, NAGA saw a year-over-year dip of 36% in its revenue by the close of the first quarter in March,
plummeting to EUR 11.6 million. Nevertheless, the company managed to amass
total trades worth EUR 37 billion during this timeframe.
