SMTC Releases Rights Offering and Registered Direct Offering
May 27, 2019 | Globe NewswireEstimated reading time: 3 minutes
SMTC Corporation intends to raise up to $14.6 million of aggregate gross proceeds via (i) a rights offering to existing stockholders and the holders of the Company’s outstanding warrants as of the close of business on May 24, 2019, to purchase up to approximately $9.1 million of shares of the Company’s common stock and (ii) a registered direct offering of approximately $5.4 million of its common stock directly to certain investors, pursuant to a common stock purchase agreement entered into between the Company and the Registered Direct Offering Investors.
SMTC ultimately intends to use the net proceeds from the Offerings to repay the $12.0 million of borrowings outstanding under its term loan B facility and the remainder, if any, for general corporate purposes.
Up to $9.1 Million Rights Offering
Under the proposed Rights Offering, the Company is distributing to Holders as of the Record Date, at no-charge, one non-transferable subscription right to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock for each 8.2 shares of common stock owned by such Holder on the Record Date. Each Right will be exercisable at a price per share equal to $3.14. Pursuant to the terms of the Rights Offering, the Rights, in the aggregate, may be exercised for a maximum of $9,135,978 of subscription proceeds. If the Rights Offering is not fully subscribed and a Holder fully exercises its Basic Subscription Privilege, the Holder may also exercise its Rights to purchase common stock at the Subscription Price that was not subscribed for by other holders of Rights under the Rights Offering. The Over-Subscription Privilege will be subject to proration to ensure that the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the Rights Offering do not exceed the Maximum Offering Amount. If any proration is necessary, subscriptions for shares subscribed for pursuant to the Over-Subscription Privilege will be prorated. No fractional shares will be issued. The Subscription Price of $3.14 is a 15% discount to the 10-day volume-weighted average price of the company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market as of May 14, 2019. All Rights will expire if they are not exercised by 5:00 PM Eastern Time on June 20, 2019, unless the Rights Offering is extended. There is no minimum number of Rights that must be exercised in the Rights Offering, no minimum number that any Holder must exercise, and no minimum number of shares of common stock that the Company will issue at the closing of the Rights Offering. Once made, all exercises of Rights are irrevocable. The Company may extend the subscription period up to an additional thirty (30) days, at its sole discretion.
$5.4 Million Registered Direct Offering
On May 23, 2019, the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement with the Registered Direct Offering Investors to sell an aggregate of 1,732,483 shares of the Company’s common stock at a public offering price per share of $3.14, for total gross proceeds of approximately $5.4 million. The offering of the Registered Direct Offering Shares was made without an underwriter or placement agent. The closing of the Registered Direct Offering is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the closing of the Rights Offering.
A shelf registration statement relating to the Registered Direct Offering Shares to be issued in the proposed Registered Direct Offering was previously filed with the SEC and is effective. A prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus describing the terms of the Registered Direct Offering have been filed with the SEC. Copies of the prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus relating to the Registered Direct Offering Shares to be issued in the proposed Registered Direct Offering may be obtained for free by visiting the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
