JACKSONVILLE, FL / ACCESS Newswire / May 21, 2025 / ParkerVision, Inc. (OTCQB:PRKR), today announced that it has filed a shelf registration statement (the "Shelf Registration") on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

If and when declared effective by the SEC, the Shelf Registration will allow the Company to offer and sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate of $25 million of its common stock, warrants, or a combination thereof, on a registered basis, subject to market conditions, the Company's capital needs, and limitations imposed by the SEC.

The price and terms of any securities offered under the Shelf Registration would be determined at the time of any such offering. The Company has no immediate plans to offer or sell any securities under this Shelf Registration. However, the Company feels it is prudent to include this optionality as a matter of standard corporate governance in order to have the flexibility to respond to future financing needs.

"While we have no current plans to offer securities under this shelf registration, putting this shelf in place provides us with enhanced financial flexibility to prudently capitalize on opportunities that may emerge in the future for the Company," said Jeffrey Parker, CEO of ParkerVision.

The Shelf Registration has been filed with the SEC but has not yet become effective. Securities may not be sold nor may offers to buy be accepted prior to the time that the Shelf Registration becomes effective. The Shelf Registration does not constitute a commitment by the Company to sell any specific amount of securities. Any further offerings under the Shelf Registration, if made, will be subject to the Company's discretion and applicable market conditions. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.
