New Institutional Equity Funding Comes on the
Heels of Successful $4.4 Million Retail Round
Foldera, Inc., the next-generation
Information Organizer and Collaboration service for computer users
worldwide, announced recently that it has completed a private
institutional common stock financing of $4.5 million and warrants.
Richard Lusk, Foldera's CEO stated, “This
successful institutional round, combined with the $4.4 million
retail round in August, provides the Company with sufficient working
capital to launch our service into general release in the first
quarter of 2007 and to build out our data center to support our
near-term demand.” Mr. Lusk went on to say, “The recent reduction in
our technology infrastructure costs coupled with an increase in
microprocessor computing power has significantly lowered our average
monthly per-user costs, and substantially reduced the amount of
capital we needed at this time.” He concluded by saying, “We would
like to thank the institutions who have supported us in this round,
and who will continue to support us in the future.”
Under the terms of the financing, Foldera is
issuing to institutional investors $4.5 million of common stock at
$1.08 per share. "Foldera has benefited from the recent increased
mergers and acquisitions activity in the internet community space as
evidenced by the recent sales of MySpace (NWS), YouTube (GOOG) and
rumors of a pending sale of the Facebook community site," said Reid
Dabney, CFO of Foldera, Inc. Mr. Dabney went on to say, "Foldera's
web service is very appealing to workers in small- and medium-sized
businesses (SMB) because Foldera organizes your email, documents and
to-do list automatically while you work, saving time and increasing
productivity. Also, the SMB community that Foldera serves is
desirable to advertisers seeking to reach this elusive demographic
and this should help drive revenues going forward."
Foldera(TM) is the free, secure and
easy-to-use service that instantly organizes workflow. Foldera
combines web-based email, instant messaging, a document manager, a
task manager, a calendar, a contact manager and sharable folders
into a unified productivity suite, available with a single login
from any web browser. Foldera also has the unique ability to
instantly sort and file your sent and incoming email, instant
message dialogs, documents, tasks, and events into folders, on a
project-by-project basis, chronologically and in real-time.
Foldera expects to generate revenues from
the sale of services such as extra data storage, premium service and
support plans, as well as from embedded search and contextual
advertising.
