Why invest
DLT (digital) bond
In cooperation with the Czech Securities Depository, we offer investors the opportunity to invest directly in digitized bonds.
This model provides a simpler, more efficient, and more cost-effective way to hold and trade securities. The bonds will be issued directly by the company and registered with national depositories. This offers a significant advantage for investors – securities will be held in asset accounts directly at Crowdberry, freeing investors from any administrative obligations associated with holding or transferring securities.
The distributed income will be paid to the investor after tax has been withheld; for individuals, income from Slovak bonds is subject to a 19% withholding tax.
About the Company and the Market Environment
Risks and scoring
🔴 Competitive risk (high)
The online brokerage market is characterized by low barriers to entry (lower capital requirements) and low costs for customers to switch to competitors. This increases pressure on margins and marketing expenses.
The risk is partially mitigated by Boataround's competitive advantages, such as dynamic pricing, a broad portfolio of boats and destinations, strong relationships with charter companies, and high customer satisfaction (Trustpilot rating of 4.5/5).
🔴 Cash flow risk (high)
Reservation payments and additional payments are spread over several steps throughout the year, which creates significant seasonality in cash flows and pressure on liquidity, especially in the fall and winter months.
The risk is partially mitigated by the fact that Boataround collects a substantial portion of the commission when the boat is booked, which reduces seasonal cash flow fluctuations and allows for better planning of operating financing.
🟡 Business model risk (medium)
Online boat rental brokerage is associated with significant seasonality and the risk that part of the customer base will switch to competitors.
This risk is mitigated by Boataround's strong market position and growing brand awareness, as well as year-on-year customer retention of approximately 60%, which supports organic growth and repeat bookings. We base our credit scoring on a combination of financial and non-financial indicators. According to our model, the credit score is D.
Risks and scoring are discussed in more detail in the Investment Information (IoI) document, which is available after a non-binding expression of interest to invest.
