Nium is a Singapore-based B2B payments fintech that offers cross-border payment capabilities to business customers. In a Bloomberg interview, co-founder and CEO Prajit Nanu discussed the company after it raised more than $200 million in fresh funding and topped a $1 billion valuation. He said it operated in about 15 markets with local licenses and intended to expand to more than 20, including through licenses in Brazil, Mexico, and parts of Asia. The company planned to invest in technology and products and pursue acquisitions that added capabilities fitting its platform. Nanu said the company would have become profitable later that year without its acquisition strategy; with the planned roll-up, he projected profitability in the third or fourth quarter of the next year. These are company statements and forecasts in an interview, not audited results. The transcript gives no revenue figure, so the valuation and funding are traction and financing evidence rather than revenue.
