Future Outlook and Strategy
Katapult Holdings, Inc. is pursuing strategic mergers with CCFI and Aaron’s, anticipated to close in the third quarter of 2026, to establish a premier omni-channel platform for non-prime consumers . The company intends to refinance, extend, or replace its New Revolving Facility, which matures on December 4, 2026, though success on acceptable terms is not assured . Independent auditors have expressed substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern without successful refinancing or extension of its indebtedness and adequate operational funding .
