Convertible Notes with Death-Spiral Terms
Issued $70,200 in convertible notes to Jefferson Street Capital and Lambda Ventures, with a conversion price at 77% of the lowest traded price over the prior 15 trading days. At the current $0.05 stock price, the effective conversion price could be as low as $0.0385, implying massive dilution if converted. The notes also include 250,000 commitment shares.
-
$7.5M Equity Line of Credit
Entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement with Lambda Ventures for up to $7.5 million in stock sales. The purchase price is 80% of the lowest trading price during a 5-day valuation period, meaning the company will sell shares at a deep discount to market. The agreement includes 750,000 initial commitment shares and additional 1M shares per $2.5M drawn.
-
Immediate Dilution from Commitment Shares
The company will issue 1 million restricted shares as commitment fees (250K for notes, 750K for equity line), representing about 0.13% of the 757.8M outstanding shares. These shares are earned immediately and are not subject to cancellation if the notes are not repaid within 6 months.
-
Registration Overhang
The company must file a registration statement within 30 days to register the resale of shares issued under the equity line, creating a potential flood of discounted shares into the market as Lambda Ventures sells into any liquidity.
Analysis · HYOR · Trade & Services
HyOrc Corp, a micro-cap company with a going-concern warning and only $54K in cash as of its last 10-Q, has entered into two highly dilutive financing arrangements. The convertible notes carry a conversion price at a 23% discount to the lowest market price over 15 days, a structure that can lead to a death-spiral as the stock price falls. The $7.5 million equity line of credit allows the company to sell shares at a 20% discount to the lowest price during a valuation period, creating a significant overhang. While the capital provides a lifeline, the terms are punitive and reflect the company's desperate financial position. The 1 million commitment shares (250K for notes, 750K for the equity line) alone represent immediate dilution of about 0.13% of outstanding shares, but the real threat is the potential massive dilution from future conversions and puts, which could swamp existing shareholders.
