Insights
DeFi Technologies filed shelf prospectus allowing future capital raising but has no immediate plans to issue new securities.
DeFi Technologies has positioned itself for potential future capital raises by filing a base shelf prospectus with Canadian authorities and a corresponding registration with the SEC. This strategic move gives the company significant financial flexibility over the next 25 months, creating a streamlined pathway to quickly issue various securities including common shares, debt securities, warrants, and other instruments if market conditions become favorable.
Importantly, the company has explicitly stated it has "no present intention to undertake an offering" under this filing. This is a prudent financial planning measure rather than an imminent capital raise announcement. By utilizing the "well-known seasoned issuer" exemption, the company demonstrates it meets certain regulatory thresholds, potentially indicating its established market presence.
For investors, this development has dual implications. On one hand, it represents responsible financial management by creating optionality for future growth capital without immediate dilution. On the other hand, the ability to quickly issue securities over the next two years introduces potential dilution risk should the company change course. The filing reveals management's forward-thinking approach to maintaining access to capital markets while their explicit statement of no current offering plans helps mitigate immediate concerns about share dilution.
The Company has filed the Base Shelf Prospectus and Registration Statement to maintain financial flexibility, but has no present intention to undertake an offering of securities under the Base Shelf Prospectus. There is no certainty any Securities will be offered or sold under the Base Shelf Prospectus and/or Registration Statement within the 25-month effective period. Should the Company decide to offer securities during the 25-month effective period, the specific terms, including the use of proceeds, will be set forth in a prospectus supplement to the Base Shelf Prospectus and Registration Statement.
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy securities in any jurisdiction where the offer, sale or solicitation would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
Access to the Base Shelf Prospectus and any future amendments or prospectus supplement(s) thereto will be provided in accordance with securities legislation relating to procedures for providing access to a prospectus. The Base Shelf Prospectus is now accessible under DeFi Technologies' profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and a copy of the Registration Statement can be found on the SEC's EDGAR website at www.sec.gov. The Company will make any prospectus supplement(s) to the Base Shelf Prospectus accessible on SEDAR+ and the SEC's EDGAR website and will issue a subsequent news release when such prospectus supplement is available. Alternatively, an electronic or paper copy of the Base Shelf Prospectus, and any future amendments or prospectus supplement(s), may be obtained, without charge, from the Corporate Secretary of the Company by e-mail at ir@defi.tech, by providing the contact with an email address or address, as applicable.
