This Current Report on Form 8-K was filed by Boxlight Corporation (Nasdaq: BOXL) on June 24, 2020, covering events occurring between June 8, 2020, and June 24, 2020. The filing addresses the closing of a public equity offering, the exercise of an overallotment option, a debt-for-equity agreement with a creditor, and the restoration of compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements.
Key Financial Metrics and Transactions
- Public Offering Proceeds: The Company closed a public offering on June 11, 2020, selling 13,333,333 shares at $0.75 per share for gross proceeds of $10,000,000.
- Overallotment Option: On June 24, 2020, the Company exercised an overallotment option, selling an additional 1,999,667 shares at $0.75 per share for gross proceeds of $1,500,000.

Material Changes and Listing Compliance
On May 15, 2020, Nasdaq notified the Company of non-compliance with the minimum stockholders' equity requirement of $2,500,000 under Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). The capital raised through the Public Offering and Overallotment Option has restored the Company's stockholders' equity, allowing it to regain compliance with Nasdaq listing standards as of the filing date. However, continued compliance is contingent upon the Company evidencing this status in its upcoming Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.
Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
The primary risk identified is the potential for delisting if the Company fails to demonstrate continued compliance with the stockholders' equity requirement in its next quarterly report. The filing does not provide specific forward-looking guidance on revenue, profit, or operational outlook beyond the immediate capital raise and debt restructuring.
Key Facts for Investor Verification
- Verify the exact amount of net proceeds after deducting all underwriting discounts and offering expenses from the $11,500,000 gross proceeds.
- Confirm the updated total share count and diluted earnings per share impact following the issuance of approximately 15.2 million new shares (public offering + overallotment + debt conversion).
- Review the upcoming Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2020, to confirm sustained compliance with Nasdaq's $2,500,000 stockholders' equity requirement.
- Examine the terms of the agreement with EDI/AMAGIC (Exhibit 10.1) for any additional covenants or restrictions associated with the debt forgiveness.
