SHARON, Pa.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. (NASDAQ:MIGI) (“Mawson” or the “Company”), a digital infrastructure provider, today announced the closing of a $5 million registered direct offering.
Mawson has closed its previously announced registered direct offering with institutional investors for the issuance and sale of 2,083,336 shares of its common stock (or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof) at a purchase price of $2.40 per share of common stock (or $2.399 per pre-funded warrant, which represents the per share offering price for the common stock less the $0.001 per share exercise price for each pre-funded warrant). In addition, in a concurrent private placement, the Company issued to the institutional investors unregistered warrants to purchase up to 2,604,170 shares of its common stock with an exercise price of $3.23 per share and are exercisable six months following issuance for a period of five and one-half years following issuance.
H.C. Wainwright & Co. acted as the exclusive placement agent for the offering.
The gross proceeds to Mawson from the offering were approximately $5 million, before deducting the placement agent’s fees and other offering expenses payable by Mawson. Mawson intends to use the net proceeds from this offering to continue to build out its digital infrastructure, for potential strategic transactions and also for general corporate purposes, including working capital. The shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants described above were offered and sold by Mawson pursuant to a “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-264062), including a base prospectus, previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on April 1, 2022 and declared effective by the SEC on April 11, 2022. Such shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants were offered only by means of a prospectus, including a prospectus supplement, forming a part of the effective registration statement. A final prospectus supplement and an accompanying base prospectus relating to the registered direct offering was filed with the SEC. Electronic copies of the prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus may be obtained by visiting the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov or by contacting H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC at 430 Park Avenue, 3rd Floor, New York, NY 10022, by e-mail at placements@hcwco.com or telephone at (212) 856-5711.
The warrants described above were issued in a concurrent private placement under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Regulation D promulgated thereunder and, along with the shares of common stock underlying such warrants, have not been registered under the Securities Act, or applicable state securities laws. Accordingly, the warrants and underlying shares of common stock may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an effective registration statement or applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such applicable state securities laws.
The Company also has amended certain existing warrants to purchase up to 1,666,667 shares of the Company’s common stock that were previously issued in July 2022 and have an exercise price of $6.06 per share, effective upon the closing of the offering, such that the amended warrants have a reduced exercise price of $3.23 per share, are exercisable six months following the closing of the offering, and expire five and one-half years following the closing of the offering.
