Analysis · SLNH · Crypto Assets
Soluna's definitive proxy asks shareholders to approve a massive expansion of authorized shares from 375 million to 1 billion — a 167% increase — alongside approval to issue 20%+ of outstanding stock under its $250 million Standby Equity Purchase Agreement with YA II PN. The company has 246.7 million shares outstanding and is burning cash, with a material weakness in internal controls and probable debt covenant breach disclosed in its Q2 10-Q. The SEPA pricing at 96-97% of VWAP means YA buys at a discount and can immediately resell, creating persistent selling pressure. The proxy also reveals KPMG replaced UHY as auditor in March 2026 — a notable change given the company's recent control weaknesses. Shareholders vote October 16, 2026.
