• Macquarie Waives Loan Terms, Mandates $100M ATM

  On July 17, 2026, Macquarie agreed to waive certain requirements under the April 8, 2026 term loan, but now requires the company to establish an at-the-market program with an aggregate offering price of at least $100 million.

• ATM Program Deadline Tied to Notice or Next Filing

  The ATM must be established within 60 days of Macquarie's written notice or, under certain circumstances, within five business days after the company's next quarterly or annual report filing.

• Potential Dilution Overhang

  A $100 million ATM program represents about 17% of the company's current market cap, creating a significant potential dilution overhang for existing shareholders.

• Going Concern and Financing Context

  The company has a going-concern warning and recently reported wider losses and ineffective internal controls. This mandated ATM adds to a series of dilutive financing events, including a $350M shelf and multiple resale registrations.

Lender Macquarie has waived certain loan requirements but is now directing New ERA Energy to establish a $100 million at-the-market (ATM) equity program. This matters because the company already carries a going-concern warning and a track record of dilutive financing. Once active, the ATM will let the company sell shares into the market, potentially diluting existing holders. While the waiver eases immediate covenant pressure, the mandated ATM signals that Macquarie wants a ready capital source—likely to safeguard repayment capacity.
