RADNOR, PA, July 21, 2023 - BM Technologies, Inc. (NYSE American: BMTX) (the "Company"), one of the largest digital banking platforms and Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) providers, today provided an update on the previously announced Partnership with First Carolina Bank ("FCB")for its Higher Education business.
The Company continues to actively work on the transfer of its Higher Education customer deposits from Customers Bank to FCB; however, as of July 15, 2023, the outside date for exclusivity, the regulatory review process is continuing and the transfer has not yet occurred.
The Company expects Core EBITDA results to be negatively impacted by approximately $1.0 - $1.5 million per month due to the delayed transfer and the continued challenging economic and interest rate environment.
Based on feedback received to date, BMTX remains optimistic that the regulatory review will be completed during the third quarter of 2023 with expected transfer of customer deposits thereafter. The Company will provide further updates once the regulatory review has been completed and the transfer of its Higher Education customer deposits has been initiated.
