VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. (TSXV: DMGI) (“DMG” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has priced its previously announced “best efforts” underwritten overnight marketed offering (the “Offering”) of units (the “Units”) of the Company.
Pursuant to the Offering, the Company intends to issue 28,310,000 Units at a price of C$0.53 per Unit (the “Offering Price”) for gross proceeds of approximately C$15 million. Each Unit shall be comprised of one common share of the Company (a “Unit Share”) and one common share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”). Each Warrant shall be exercisable into one common share of the Company (a “Warrant Share”) for a period of 60 months from the Closing Date (as herein defined) at an exercise price of C$0.65 per Warrant Share, subject to adjustment in certain events.
The Units will be offered by way of a prospectus supplement (the “Prospectus Supplement”) to the Company’s base shelf prospectus dated October 1, 2024 (the “Base Shelf Prospectus”) to be filed in each of the provinces of Canada, except Quebec, and the Units may be also offered in the United States on a private placement basis pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements under Rule 144A and/or Regulation D of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act“), subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange, and in those other jurisdictions outside of Canada and the United States, provided that no prospectus filing or comparable obligation arises in such other jurisdiction.
The Offering is expected to be completed pursuant to an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) to be entered into between the Company and Canaccord Genuity Corp. as lead underwriter and sole bookrunner (“Canaccord Genuity” or the “Lead Underwriter”), and a syndicate of underwriters including Roth Canada Inc. and Ventum Financial Corp. (collectively with the Lead Underwriter, the “Underwriters”). The Company has agreed to grant the Underwriters an over-allotment option (the “Over-Allotment Option”) exercisable, in whole or in part, in the sole discretion of the Lead Underwriter, to purchase up to an additional 15% of the number of Units, sold in the Offering for up to 30 days from the closing date of the Offering. The Over-Allotment Option is exercisable to acquire Units, common shares and/or Warrants (or any combination thereof) at the discretion of the Lead Underwriter.
The net proceeds of the Offering are expected to be used for DMG’s recently announced purchase of six one-megawatt hydro mining containers, scheduled for delivery and installation in the current quarter as well as working capital and other general corporate purposes.
The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about November 19, 2024 and will be subject to market and other customary conditions (the “Closing Date”).
