Mitek Systems, a digital identity verification company, has drawn $50 million from its term loan facility ahead of the February 2026 maturity of its convertible senior notes. The San Diego-based firm disclosed the borrowing in an SEC filing on 22 January. The term loan, arranged through Silicon Valley Bank, involves Mitek subsidiaries A2iA Corp and ID R&D. It carries a variable interest rate tied to term SOFR or the Wall Street Journal prime rate, with a margin adjusting based on the company's net leverage ratio. The financing follows Mitek's record fiscal year 2025 results announced in December. The company provides document verification, facial biometrics and voice authentication services, recently launching deepfake defences to combat synthetic identity fraud.
