Herlev, Denmark - 14 November 2024 - Shape Robotics A/S, a leader in educational robotics, is pleased to announce a comprehensive financing and factoring agreement totaling 92.5 million RON (approximately 138.75 million DKK) with UniCredit BANK, replacing our previous facilities with BRD Groupe Société Générale.

This new financing structure optimizes our cash flow by ensuring access to liquidity across our operations, addressing the cash pressures from long payment cycles. The broader factoring facility also reduces dependency on a single debtor, enabling us to diversify income streams and maintain smoother cash flow.

Mark Abraham, CEO of Shape Robotics, said: "This refinancing with UniCredit not only strengthens our financial position but also underscores our commitment to scaling our operations and delivering innovative educational solutions. By increasing our factoring capacity and securing favorable credit terms, we can better manage cash flow, meet the growing demand for SmartLabs, and continue our mission to transform education through technology."

The enhanced liquidity also strengthens Shape Robotics' capability to further drive R&D and operational expansion, meeting market demand while ensuring stability for future growth. With UniCredit as our financial partner, we are poised to extend access to cutting-edge STEAM learning tools, empowering classrooms across Romania and beyond.
