Material Changes
The primary material change is the execution of a $50.0 million registered direct offering and concurrent private placement. This transaction will result in:
- Immediate dilution to existing shareholders through the issuance of 5,952,381 new shares.
- Future potential dilution upon the exercise of warrants issued at a price ($10.00) higher than the current offering price ($8.40).
- A shift in asset composition as proceeds are designated for the purchase of BNB, reinforcing the company's digital asset treasury strategy.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
Outlook and Management Commentary: Management intends to use the proceeds to acquire BNB. The offering is expected to close on or about June 27, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions. Maxim Group LLC is acting as the sole placement agent.
Risks and Contingencies:
- Closing Risk: The transaction is subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions; failure to close would result in no proceeds.
- Market Risk: The value of the company's treasury strategy is tied to the volatility of BNB and the broader digital asset market.
- Forward-Looking Statements: The filing includes standard disclaimers that actual results may differ materially from expectations due to risks beyond the company's control.
Investor Verification Checklist

- Confirm the current market price of BNB to evaluate the immediate purchasing power of the raised capital.
