CISO Global Files Significantly Reduced S-3 Shelf Registration
Reaffirms Commitment to Transparency; No Immediate Plans to Utilize ATM or Shelf Registrations
Scottsdale, AZ, June 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CISO Global (NASDAQ:CISO), a leader in AI-powered cybersecurity software and compliance services, announced it has filed the renewal of its S-3 shelf registration, reducing the total shelf from $300 million to $100 million. The filing also includes a significant reduction in the At-The-Market (ATM) offering component from $100 million down to approximately $10 million.
This renewal follows through on the company's prior commitment to Nasdaq, made during a previous compliance period when CISO Global temporarily fell below the required levels of stockholders' equity. The renewal maintains the shelf registration primarily as a contingency measure, aligning with Nasdaq's guidelines and significantly reducing associated filing fees and costs by renewing the original 2022 registration.
"While this S-3 registration renewal ensures we maintain compliance with Nasdaq requirements, we have no intention of utilizing the ATM facility at this time," said David Jemmett, CEO of CISO Global. "Our primary objective remains the strategic growth of our software and services business, while responsibly managing our financial resources."
The company emphasizes that the shelf registration is purely strategic and underscores its commitment to maintaining strong financial governance.
