$3 million upfront with up to an additional $2.9 million of potential aggregate gross proceeds upon the exercise in full of short-term warrants
Boston, July 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Netcapital Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ:NCPL, NPCLW)), a digital private capital markets ecosystem, today announced that it has entered into definitive agreements for the purchase and sale of 641,712 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $4.675 per share in a registered direct offering priced at-the-market under Nasdaq rules. In a concurrent private placement, the Company will issue unregistered short-term warrants to purchase up to 641,712 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.55 per share that will be immediately exercisable upon issuance and will expire twenty-four months following the effective date of the registration statement covering the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the unregistered short-term warrants. The closing of the offering is expected to occur on or about July 17, 2025 subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
H.C. Wainwright & Co. is acting as the exclusive placement agent for the offering.
The gross proceeds to the Company from the offering are expected to be approximately $3 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The potential additional gross proceeds to the Company from the unregistered short-term warrants, if fully-exercised on a cash basis, will be approximately $2.9 million. No assurance can be given that any of such unregistered short-term warrants will be exercised. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for the repayment of certain outstanding promissory notes and for general working capital purposes.
The common stock (but not the unregistered short-term warrants and the shares of common stock underlying the unregistered short-term warrants) described above are being offered by the Company pursuant to a "shelf" registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-267921) that was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on October 26, 2022.
