• $6M Unit Offering Priced at Market

  11,535,000 units at $0.52 each, each unit consisting of one common share (or pre-funded warrant) and one Class F warrant.

• Warrant Reset to Deep Discount

  Warrant exercise price resets to 70% of initial $0.52 on the second trading day after closing, then to 50% on the fifth trading day, with proportional share count increase.

• Zero-Cash Exercise Doubles Dilution

  Warrants can be exercised on a cashless basis, exchanging each warrant for twice the number of common shares issuable on a cash exercise.

• Underwriter Option Adds Overhang

  45-day option for up to 908,765 additional common shares and/or warrants, potentially increasing dilution further.

C3is Inc. priced a $6 million unit offering at $0.52 per unit — exactly the current stock price — but the attached warrants contain aggressive reset provisions that drop the exercise price to 70% and then 50% of the initial $0.52 within days, while also allowing zero-cash exercise for double the shares. This structure, combined with the company's micro-cap size and recent reverse split history, signals extreme dilution risk. The offering follows a shareholder-approved 1-for-1,000 reverse split authority and an existing $98M ATM program, painting a picture of a company in survival mode, using deeply dilutive financing to stay afloat.
