SurgePays, Inc. Retires Additional Debt

BARTLETT, Tenn., March 30, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SurgePays, Inc. (OTCQB: SURG) (“SurgePays” or the “Company”), a blockchain fintech company building a next generation supply chain network that offers wholesale goods and financial services for the underbanked more cost efficiently than traditional distribution models, today announces that it has retired an additional $1.48 million in debt above and beyond the previously retired $1.17 million of debt as announced on March 17, 2021. Cash on hand and proceeds from the Company’s recent bridge financing were used to retire the combined $2.65 million in debt since January 1, 2021.

“We continue to see paying down our relatively high-cost debt as advantageous to our balance sheet and to our shareholders, especially as we continue to position the Company for an up-list to Nasdaq. Eliminating this debt will also eliminate the nearly 86 million-share overhang in reserve from our potential share count compared to approximately 44 million shares in the float. Given the debt repayment, we are happy to see these shares will come out of reserve,” said SurgePays CFO Tony Evers.
