BKV Corporation (NYSE: BKV) details Power JV expansion and new stock issue
BKV Corporation has sent an information statement explaining a related-party transaction and stock issuance already approved by its majority owner, Banpu North America Corporation, by written consent. BKV agreed to buy one-half of Banpu Power US Corporation’s interest in their BKV-BPP Power joint venture, which will leave the power venture owned 75% by BKV and 25% by BPPUS. The purchase price is set by a formula of $376.0 million minus 25% of the joint venture’s net indebtedness at closing, paid 50% in cash and 50% in BKV common stock. Using net indebtedness as of September 30, 2025, BKV estimates issuing about 5,309,105 shares, which would dilute existing holders and increase Banpu’s beneficial ownership from 66% to approximately 68% based on shares outstanding on December 4, 2025. Cash will be funded from BKV’s balance sheet and roughly $170.3 million of net proceeds from a recent 6.9 million‑share equity offering. The deal requires approval by disinterested Banpu Power shareholders, certain regulatory clearances and other closing conditions, and may be terminated if not completed by June 30, 2026.
Positive
- None.
Negative

BKV Corporation plans to raise its stake in the BKV-BPP Power joint venture to 75%, paying a formula-based price of
The structure is a related-party deal within the Banpu group, so BKV formed an independent special committee, hired separate legal counsel and obtained a fairness opinion from Moelis & Company LLC. These steps, together with NYSE Section 312.03 stockholder approval via Banpu North America’s 71% written consent, are designed to address conflicts but do not eliminate economic concentration.
For minority holders, the key effects are ownership dilution and a modest increase in Banpu’s beneficial stake from 66% to about

FAQ
What transaction is BKV Corporation (BKV) describing in this information statement?
BKV describes a transaction where it will acquire one-half of Banpu Power US Corporation’s interest in their BKV-BPP Power, LLC joint venture. After closing, the power joint venture will be owned 75% by BKV and 25% by BPPUS, giving BKV a larger economic and governance stake in the Temple I and II natural gas power plants.
How much will BKV pay for the additional Power JV interest and in what form?
The aggregate consideration is set by a formula of (x) $376.0 million less (y) 25% of the Power JV’s net indebtedness at closing. This purchase price will be paid 50% in cash and 50% in BKV common stock, with the share portion calculated using a Closing Reference Price of
How many BKV shares are expected to be issued to BPPUS and how will this affect existing stockholders?
Using the Power JV’s net indebtedness as of
How is BKV funding the cash portion of the Power JV transaction?
BKV plans to fund the cash consideration with a combination of cash on hand and net proceeds from a recently completed underwritten public equity offering of 6,900,000 shares of common stock. That offering generated approximately $170.3 million in net proceeds after underwriting discounts, commissions and estimated expenses.
Why did BKV need stockholder approval for the Company Stock Issuance and how was it obtained?
Because the stock is being issued in a related-party transaction involving a Banpu affiliate and is expected to exceed 5% of BKV’s pre‑issuance shares, NYSE Section 312.03 required stockholder approval. Banpu North America Corporation, which holds about 71% of BKV’s outstanding common stock, delivered a written consent on
What other approvals and conditions must be satisfied before the BKV Power JV transaction closes?
The deal requires Banpu Power Public Company Limited stockholder approval at an extraordinary general meeting, where at least 75% of votes of disinterested stockholders present and eligible must support the transaction. It also needs the absence of legal restraints, certain regulatory approvals including for an FCC license held by a JV subsidiary, performance of covenants, continued effectiveness of the written consent, and mailing of the information statement at least 20 business days before closing.
When does BKV expect the Power JV transaction and stock issuance to be completed?
BKV currently anticipates that the transaction will close and the Company Stock Issuance will occur in the first quarter of 2026. However, the documents emphasize there is no assurance the transaction will be completed, or completed by that time, and the Purchase Agreement allows either party to terminate if closing has not occurred by
