Note 15 – Common Stock
Our common stock has a par value of $0.001 per share. We are authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of common stock. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote. A summary of shares of common stock issued by the Company since April 30, 2022 is as follows:
ATM Facility
In August 2023, we entered into a sales agreement (“the 2023 ATM Facility”) with ThinkEquity LLC (“ThinkEquity”), which provides for the sale, in our sole discretion, of shares of our common stock through ThinkEquity, as our sales agent. In accordance with the terms of the ATM Sales Agreement, the Company may offer and sell shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $4,375,000. The issuance and sale of these shares by us pursuant to the 2023 ATM Facility are deemed “at the market” offerings as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and are registered under the Securities Act. We pay a commission of up to 2.5% of gross sales proceeds of any common stock sold under the 2023 ATM Facility.
During the nine months ended January 31, 2024, we sold an aggregate of shares of common stock under the 2023 ATM Facility, at an average price of $1.07 per share, for gross proceeds of approximately $57,000 and net proceeds of approximately $55,700, after deducting commissions and other offering expenses payable by us. Additionally, the Company incurred legal fees of approximately $46,000 establishing the 2023 ATM Facility. In December 2023, the Prospectus Supplement dated August 8, 2023 was amended to change the aggregate offering price under the ATM facility to up to $4,375,000.
As of January 31, 2024, approximately $4,318,000 of common stock remained available to be sold under the 2023 ATM Facility, subject to certain conditions as specified in the sales agreement.
Public Offering
In December 2023, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with ThinkEquity LLC, as representative of the underwriters, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the underwriters in a firm commitment underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) an aggregate of 16,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a public offering price of $0.50 per share. The Company also granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 2,400,000 shares of Common Stock to cover over-allotments.
The Offering closed on December 11, 2023, resulting in the issuance of 18,400,000 shares of Common Stock which generated gross proceeds of $9,200,000. Net proceeds to the Company from the Offering, after deducting the underwriting discount, the underwriters’ fees and expenses and the Company’s estimated Offering expenses, were approximately $8,400,000.
