Key Terms
private placementfinancial
A private placement is a way for companies to raise money by selling securities directly to a small group of investors instead of through a public offering. This process is often quicker and less regulated, making it similar to offering a special, exclusive investment opportunity to select individuals or institutions. For investors, it can provide access to unique investment options that are not available on public markets.
accredited investorsfinancial
Accredited investors are individuals or entities considered to have enough financial knowledge and resources to understand and handle more complex and risky investments. They are often allowed to participate in private investment opportunities that are not available to the general public, similar to how experienced players might access exclusive clubs or events. This status helps ensure that investors can manage potential risks and rewards appropriately.
registration statementregulatory
A registration statement is a formal document that companies file with a government agency to offer new shares of stock to the public. It provides essential information about the company's finances, operations, and risks, helping investors make informed decisions. Think of it as a detailed product description that ensures transparency and trust before buying into a company.
Securities Actregulatory
A securities act is a law that governs the offering, sale and disclosure of stocks, bonds and other investment products to the public. It requires companies to provide clear, truthful information—like a product label for an investment—so buyers can understand risks and value before they invest. For investors, these rules reduce fraud, promote transparency, and help ensure fair access to market information.
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Momentus Inc. (NASDAQ: MNTS) (“Momentus” or the “Company”), a leading U.S. commercial space firm specializing in satellite solutions, in-space transportation, and orbital infrastructure, today announced its entry into a warrant inducement agreement with an existing institutional investor of the Company for the immediate exercise of the August 2025 warrants to purchase up to 4,862,058 shares of common stock (the “Existing Warrants”). The Existing Warrants will be exercised at a reduced exercise price of $0.77 for total gross cash proceeds of approximately $3.7 million, before deducting financial advisor fees and other transaction expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
In consideration for the immediate exercise in full of the Existing Warrants, the investor will receive in a private placement new December 2025 unregistered warrants to purchase up to 7,293,087 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “New Warrants”). The New Warrants will have an exercise price of $0.77 and will be initially exercisable on the date that stockholder approval of the exercise of the New Warrants is obtained. The New Warrants will expire five years from the date of such approval. The closing of the warrant inducement transaction is expected to occur on or about December 11, 2025, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
The Company also has agreed that certain existing October 2025 warrants to purchase up to 7,469,607 shares of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $1.43 will be amended such that the warrants will have a reduced exercise price of $0.77 per share. The warrant amendment is subject to stockholder approval, and the warrants shall expire five years from the date stockholder approval is obtained. If stockholder approval is not obtained by the date that is six (6) months following the initial date of issuance of these warrants, then the exercise price of the warrants will automatically be reduced to the Minimum Price (as defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d)) of the Class A common stock on the date that is six (6) months following the initial date of issuance of the warrants and the warrants will expire five years following the date that is six (6) months following the initial date of issuance of the warrants.
A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners acted as the exclusive financial advisor in connection with the transaction.
The New Warrants described above were offered in a private placement pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and, along with the common stock issuable upon their exercise, have not been registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the SEC or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. The securities were offered only to accredited investors. The Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of common stock issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy these securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
