Investor Verification Checklist

  • Verify the total gross proceeds from the offering (5,250,000 shares x $65.65) and the net proceeds after underwriting discounts and expenses.
  • Confirm the updated total number of shares outstanding post-offering to assess dilution impact.
  • Review the full text of the Underwriting Agreement (Exhibit 1.1) for specific lock-up periods or additional covenants.
  • Check subsequent filings (e.g., 10-Q) to determine how the raised capital was utilized (e.g., debt repayment, capital expenditures).
