check_boxKey Events

• High-Cost Convertible Debt Secured

  The company issued a $290,000 promissory note for $250,000 in gross proceeds, reflecting a $40,000 original issue discount. Net proceeds after legal and placement agent fees totaled $224,500.

• Significant Dilution Potential

  The note is convertible at 75% of the lowest bid price over 10 trading days, with a $0.10 floor that is removed upon an event of default. This could lead to substantial dilution, potentially over 40% if converted at the floor price.

• Warrants Issued

  Labrys Fund II, L.P. also received warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, exercisable from November 12, 2026, to May 12, 2029.

• Ongoing Financial Distress

  This financing follows a similar high-cost debt agreement on May 1, 2026, and occurs while the company faces an SEC Wells Notice, Nasdaq delisting threats, and substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

Netcapital Inc. has secured an additional $224,500 in net proceeds through a highly dilutive convertible promissory note and warrants. This financing comes with an original issue discount, high interest, and a conversion price mechanism that allows conversion at a deep discount to market, with the floor price removed upon default. This transaction is a critical, albeit costly, measure to address the company's immediate liquidity needs, following a recent similar high-cost debt agreement and ongoing regulatory challenges including an SEC Wells Notice and Nasdaq delisting threat. The terms reflect the company's distressed financial position and will result in substantial shareholder dilution.
