Business Context and Reporting Period
This Current Report on Form 8-K was filed by Synergy CHC Corp. (SNYR) on May 11, 2026, reporting events occurring on May 8, 2026. The Company, incorporated in Nevada and headquartered in North Windham, Maine, entered into a material definitive agreement to establish an equity line of credit facility.
Key Financial Metrics and Transaction Details
The filing details a new financing arrangement rather than reporting standard periodic financial results (revenue, profit, or cash flow). Key transaction metrics include:
- Facility Size: Up to $36,000,000 in common stock sales available to the Company at its discretion.
- Term: 24 months from May 8, 2026.
- Purchase Price: The lesser of 95% of the average of the three lowest traded prices during the five trading days preceding the Put Notice, or 95% of the lowest closing price during the three trading days following the Clearing Date.
- Transaction Limits: Minimum purchase of $25,000; maximum per purchase is the lesser of $2,500,000 or 200% of the average daily trading volume.
- Upfront Costs: Issuance of a warrant for 1,540,000 shares at an exercise price of $0.01 per share and a $20,000 legal fee payment to the Investor's counsel.
Material Changes and Agreements
The primary material change is the execution of the Equity Purchase Agreement with Hudson Global Ventures, LLC. This agreement grants the Company the right, but not the obligation, to direct the Investor to purchase shares. The Investor is obligated to purchase shares upon direction, subject to conditions. The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, obligating the filing of a registration statement within 30 days and seeking effectiveness within 90 days.
Outlook, Risks, and Covenants
Management commentary indicates that actual proceeds are uncertain and depend on market conditions and the Company's funding determinations. Key risks and covenants include:
- Beneficial Ownership Limit: The Investor cannot beneficially own more than 4.99% of outstanding Common Stock immediately after a purchase.
- Exchange Cap: Issuance is limited unless stockholder approval is obtained per Nasdaq rules.
- Warrant Extinguishment: The warrant will automatically extinguish if the Common Stock is deemed a "penny stock" under SEC Rule 3a51-1.
- Exclusivity: The Company is restricted from entering other Equity Lines of Credit or Variable Rate Transactions without the Investor's consent or a right of first refusal for 24 months.
- Pricing Penalty: If the Company pursues a Variable Rate Transaction with another party and the Investor declines, the discount rate in the Purchase Agreement may increase from 95% to 90% of market price.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the current trading volume of SNYR to assess the practical limit of the $2,500,000 per transaction cap.
- Confirm the Company's current stock price to evaluate the "penny stock" risk which could extinguish the warrant.
- Review the attached Exhibits 4.1, 10.1, and 10.2 for the full text of the Warrant, Purchase Agreement, and Registration Rights Agreement.
- Monitor the filing of the registration statement required within 30 days of May 8, 2026.
- Check for any existing at-the-market offering agreements (specifically with Roth Capital Partners and Bancroft Capital) to understand the interaction with the new facility.
