Laser Photonics Prices $7.9M Offering at $0.75, Adding 10.5M Shares and Warrants
LASE sits 89% above its 52-week low of $0.38 on elevated volume (3.3× avg).
Summary
Laser Photonics priced a public offering of 10.5 million shares plus Series B-1 and B-2 warrants at $0.75 per unit, expecting $7.9 million in gross proceeds. This follows the September 4 S-1 filing for up to $10 million, but the final terms are more dilutive: the share count is 47% higher than the originally registered 7.14 million shares, and the warrants are immediately exercisable at the same $0.75 price. The company, which reported a going concern warning and widening losses in its August 10-Q, is using the proceeds for R&D, acquisitions, and working capital. The offering is expected to close September 14, with H.C. Wainwright as placement agent.
