This 424B5 filing formalizes the terms of a $19.9 million registered direct offering, which was previously announced in news on May 7, 2026. The offering of 9,254,889 Class A Ordinary Shares at $2.15 per share represents a substantial capital raise, equivalent to approximately 19.98% of the company's market capitalization and resulting in nearly 20% dilution to existing shareholders. The offering price of $2.15 is a deep discount compared to the last reported sale price of $2.81 on the filing date (May 6, 2026), indicating the company's urgent need for capital. While highly dilutive and priced unfavorably, the $18.5 million in net proceeds are critical for New Horizon Aircraft, a pre-revenue company facing "going concern" doubts and material weaknesses in internal controls, as it extends their operating plan for at least 12 months and will accelerate the development of its Cavorite X7 aircraft program. Investors should note the significant dilution and the terms required to secure this funding.
