Rezolve Ai Secures $30 Million Loan to Drive Growth and Accelerate Momentum

NEW YORK, Jan. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rezolve Ai (NASDAQ: RZLV), a global leader in AI-driven retail and eCommerce solutions, announces the successful arrangement of a $30 million unsecured loan facility with Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG (“Berenberg”). The Company believes that this strategic funding underscores the considerable momentum in Rezolve Ai’s business and reinforces the confidence of blue-chip financial partners in the company’s vision and execution.

In a deliberate decision to preserve shareholder value, Rezolve Ai’s Board of Directors opted for this loan facility over convertible debt or equity financing. With current equity prices perceived as undervalued, the board anticipates a re-rating of the Company’s stock later this year on the back of its growing momentum and operational success. As a result, the Board believes this loan is an attractive solution to support the Company’s growth demands without diluting existing shareholders and should further reinforce confidence in the company’s long-term outlook.

“This $30 million facility is a resounding vote of confidence in Rezolve Ai’s business model and momentum,” said Daniel M. Wagner, Rezolve Ai CEO. “Securing this funding from a blue-chip institution like Berenberg demonstrates our financial strength and significant opportunities ahead. By choosing a non-dilutive solution, we are prioritizing shareholder interests while ensuring we have the resources to capitalize on our hyper-growth trajectory.”

Highlights of the Facility:

  • Blue-Chip Backing: The loan facility is provided by Berenberg, one of Europe’s oldest and most respected financial institutions, known for its conservative and diligent approach to lending.
  • Non-Dilutive Financing: Structured as a straightforward, non-convertible loan, this facility preserves shareholder value by avoiding dilution at current perceived low equity prices.
  • Strategic Growth: The funds will be deployed to capitalize on the considerable momentum in Rezolve AI’s business, supporting new market opportunities, enhancing product offerings, and driving continued innovation.
  • Flexible Repayment Terms: The facility is structured with five manageable instalments starting in August 2025, to provide financial agility as the company continues to scale.

This funding comes at a pivotal moment for Rezolve Ai, which has seen a surge in demand for its Brain solution suite, distributed globally through partnerships with Microsoft and Google. The company’s cutting-edge AI-driven tools, including Brain Commerce and Brain Checkout, are transforming the eCommerce landscape by delivering seamless, personalized retail experiences at scale.

Driving Forward with Confidence
The Company believes its ability to secure this facility on favorable terms reflects both its financial stability and its market-leading position in AI-powered retail innovation. The Company believes that the $30 million loan provides a solid foundation to support Rezolve Ai’s growth while preserving shareholder value.
