This Current Report on Form 8-K was filed by ENDRA Life Sciences Inc. on November 8, 2018 (with events reported through November 13, 2018). The Company is an emerging growth company incorporated in Delaware. The filing primarily addresses a material definitive agreement regarding a public offering of common stock and the Company's compliance status with Nasdaq listing requirements.
Key Financial Metrics
- Net Proceeds: Approximately $5.0 million from the underwritten public offering, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and offering expenses.
- Shares Issued: 1,385,750 shares of common stock, including the full exercise of the underwriter's option to purchase an additional 180,750 shares to cover over-allotments.

Material Changes
The most significant change reported is the completion of a public offering that resolved a regulatory compliance issue. On August 16, 2018, the Company received notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC that it failed to meet the minimum $2.5 million stockholders' equity requirement (Marketplace Rule 5550(b)(1)) based on its June 30, 2018, financials. The completion of the offering on November 13, 2018, is expected to restore the Company's compliance with this rule.
Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary
Management believes the Company has regained compliance with the Nasdaq Equity Rule following the offering. The offering was conducted pursuant to an effective Form S-3 registration statement. The filing includes press releases issued on November 7, 8, and 13, 2018, which are incorporated by reference but explicitly stated not to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act. No specific forward-looking guidance on revenue or product milestones is contained within this specific 8-K text.
Key Facts for Investor Verification
- Verify the final closing date of the offering (November 13, 2018) and the exact number of shares issued including the over-allotment.
- Confirm the Company's official status regarding Nasdaq compliance following the equity injection.
- Review the terms of the convertible promissory notes that were converted during the offering to understand the dilution impact beyond the new shares issued.
- Check subsequent filings (e.g., 10-Q or 10-K) for the actual post-offering balance sheet to confirm the $7.7 million equity projection.
