TAMPA, FL, December 11, 2023 – Umbra Applied Technologies Group, Inc (OTC PINK: UATG), announced today that it has reached an agreement with a lending partner to support the growth of its subsidiary H2O Processing.

The private equity partner has provided the necessary strategic growth capital to support the production of its iron mitigation systems that remove metal ion from crude oil. Initial systems have entered production and are expected to be delivered to customer sites over the next several weeks.

The obligations of the debt financing will be paid from the proceeds of production. The timing of the first payment will allow for the units to be constructed, delivered, placed into operations, and generate cash flow before that first payment is due. Notably the Company will be able to fulfill the requirements from more traditional financing sources as a result of this financing.

H2O Processing went through underwriting with The Bancorp SBA program in May of this year which required minimum revenues totaling three months.

H2O Processing CEO Stan Abrams said, ‘H2O Processing has worked very hard over the past several months with UATG to secure funding for our new iron removal system.  This funding represents a major development for H2O to build its first full-scale production IRS systems for clients.  This is a major and critical development in the oil industry.  Our unique and proprietary system will enable the sale of iron laden crude oil to the pipeline and improve production in the oil field for many producers who have been heavily penalized due to the iron content in their oil. H2O expects to show immediate success in Q1 of 2024.”

H2O Processing expects to submit documentation required by SBA after three months of revenues at the end of the first quarter. The Company will seek additional funding, sufficient to support manufacturing operations as well as to support production of its water treatment systems over the next four months.

“We look to support our continued growth driven by increased H2O Processing brand awareness. UAT Group has been pleased working with several capital partners to manufacture additional Iron Removal Systems and to commence the production of the water treatment platform,” said Thomas Crom, CFO, UAT Group.

This announcement on Monday came amid growing optimism among the Company’s executives that the traction the UAT Group conglomerate has gained this year will position the Company for exponential success in the coming new year.  The investment in H2O Processing contributes to the Company’s consolidated growth initiatives which include augmenting existing product offerings while expanding the service capabilities of its subsidiaries. The Company has streamlined its obligations and consolidated infrastructure resources to support top line growth and its planned expansion into broader clean environmental technologies.

“The proceeds of the financing will support our long-term capital structure and bolster The Company’s growth verticals. This is the first of several facilities we are currently negotiating terms for and expect additional lines to be in place in the coming weeks,” said Alex Umbra, Chairman, UAT Group.

The Company is currently engaged in ongoing negotiations for additional financing from other venture capital groups therefore, for competitive reasons, will not be releasing additional details at this time.
