Analysis · NIMU · Manufacturing
The IPO that funds the Gravitics reverse merger has been halved—from $125 million to $50 million—and the merger agreement was amended the same day to reset the minimum raise at $40 million. That is a meaningful step down in the capital the combined company will have to execute on its $270 million Axiom contract and $30 million Space Force STRATFI program, both of which require Gravitics to fund its own cost share. At the $15.50 midpoint the company nets about $48.9 million, of which $5.8 million goes straight to Lucid as a merger advisory fee and $3.0 million repays debt, leaving roughly $40 million for operations. The deal still prices at a premium to the $10.81 last reported OTC sale price on October 16, which supports the valuation narrative, but the smaller raise against a company that lost $24.5 million in the first half of 2026 means another capital raise is likely not far behind. Closing remains contingent on the merger, stockholder approvals and Nasdaq listing acceptance, with the outside date now October 30, 2026.
