Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 19, 2025, Navitas Semiconductor Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an Open Market Sale AgreementSM (the “Sale Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies”) as sales agent, pursuant to which the Company may sell shares of its Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A common stock”), from time to time through Jefferies as its sales agent through an “at the market offering” program (the “Offering”). Pursuant to the prospectus supplement dated March 19, 2025 (the “Prospectus Supplement”) related to the Offering that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) effective March 20, 2025, the Company may sell shares of its Class A common stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $50,000,000.
The shares of Class A common stock to be issued and sold, if any, under the Sale Agreement are offered pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-269752), which was previously filed with the SEC on February 14, 2023 (as thereafter amended, the “Registration Statement”) and was declared effective by the SEC on April 28, 2023, and the Prospectus Supplement. The issuance and sale, if any, of shares of Class A common stock by the Company under the Sale Agreement is subject to the continued effectiveness of the Registration Statement, and the Company makes no assurances as to the continued effectiveness of the Registration Statement.
Under the terms of the Sale Agreement, the Company will set the parameters for the sale of shares, including the number of shares to be issued, the time period during which sales are requested to be made, any limitation on the number of shares that may be sold in any one trading day and any minimum price below which sales may not be made. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Sale Agreement, Jefferies as sales agent may sell the shares by methods deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Jefferies will use commercially reasonable efforts in conducting such sales activities consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, and applicable state and federal laws. The Sale Agreement may be terminated by the Company or Jefferies for any reason, upon written notice to the other party as specified in the Sale Agreement.
The Sale Agreement provides that Jefferies will be entitled to compensation for its services of up to 3.0% of the gross sales price of all shares sold through Jefferies under the Sale Agreement. The Company has no obligation to sell any shares under the Sale Agreement, and may at any time suspend solicitation and offers under the Sale Agreement.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, if any, together with its existing cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables, for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including potential acquisitions or strategic manufacturing investments. The Company may use a portion of the net proceeds, if any, to fund possible investments in and acquisitions of complementary businesses; however, the Company currently has no agreements or commitments to complete any such transaction. The Company may also use a portion of the net proceeds, if any, for manufacturing capital expenditures, to make minority investments or to enter into partnerships or joint ventures.
The Sale Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Company and also provides for customary indemnification obligations of the Company and Jefferies, including for liabilities under the Securities Act, as well as customary other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Sale Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates and were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement. The foregoing summary of the Sale Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Sale Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1. The Sale Agreement is incorporated herein by reference and incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement.
In connection with the filing of the Prospectus Supplement, Paul D. Delva, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of the Company, delivered an opinion as to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Class A common stock in the offering, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 5.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities discussed herein, nor shall there be any sale of such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
