Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Bonk, Inc. (BNKK) entered into a Preferred Stock Redemption Agreement with Core4 Capital Holdings Corp., under which Bonk will purchase and retire 26,667 Series A Preferred Shares from Core4 for an aggregate $4,000,000, payable by wire within three business days of September 4, 2026.

After this transaction, Core4 will hold 73,333 Series A Preferred Shares, which in the event of a merger would convert into 1,516,873 shares of common stock. As consideration, Core4 has irrevocably waived all anti-dilution rights and all rights under the Series A Certificate of Designation, including voting, liquidation preference, and conversion rights on the redeemed block.

Core4 has also agreed to a general release of claims arising from its investment in Bonk, providing legal and capital-structure clarity. Bonk highlighted this as a step toward capital structure optimization, reduction of preferred overhang, and a clearer path for future strategic and M&A activity.

Filing Explained

The redemption is agreed but not yet shown as completed, with a $4.0 million payment against $214,475 of latest reported cash.

The September 11 Form 8-K documents an agreement under which Bonk will pay $4.0 million to redeem 26,667 Series A preferred shares; if consummated, the preferred overhang and Core4 rights tied to that block are reduced.

Although Exhibit 99.1 headlines the transaction as “Redeems and Retires,” the operative disclosure says Bonk will purchase the shares and pay within three business days, so the filing shows an agreed redemption awaiting consummation rather than a completed retirement.

The commitment is $4.0 million versus $214,475 of cash and equivalents reported for the quarter ended June 30, 2026; that cash balance equals 8.8 days of the quarter’s operating cash use at that historical rate.

The filing does not show payment or identify its funding source, so consummation and the resulting post-payment liquidity are the specific items to verify.

  • Available liquidity against the last reported quarterly operating outflow, in days at that rate $214,475 / ($2,226,262 / 91) = 8.8 days

Preferred Stock Redemption Agreement financial
"entered into a Preferred Stock Redemption Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Core4"
Series A Preferred Stock financial
"100,000 Preferred Series A Shares of Stock (the “Preferred Shares”)"
Series A preferred stock is a type of ownership share in a company that gives investors certain advantages, such as priority in receiving profits or getting their money back if the company is sold or goes bankrupt. It is often issued during early funding stages to attract investors by offering more security than common shares. This stock matters to investors because it provides a safer way to invest while still holding potential for future gains.
anti-dilution rights financial
"waive all anti-dilution rights with respect to the Preferred Shares"
liquidation preferences financial
"including voting rights, liquidation preferences, and conversion rights"
Liquidation preferences are contract terms that determine who gets paid first and how much when a company is sold, merged, or shuts down. Think of them like a special checkout lane that lets certain investors reclaim a set amount—often their original investment or a multiple—before other owners receive any proceeds; this protection changes how much different stakeholders can expect to get from an exit and influences investment value and negotiating power.
general release of claims financial
"Core4 has also agreed to a general release of claims against the Company"
full-ratchet financial
"includes all price-based, full-ratchet, weighted-average, broad-based"
An anti-dilution clause in investment agreements that resets the price at which earlier preferred shares convert into common stock to the lowest price paid in a later financing, regardless of how many new shares were issued. It matters to investors because it protects early investors from losing ownership percentage when a company sells new shares at a lower price, much like redoing a group bill so someone who paid more gets refunded to match the lowest price.

Bonk, Inc. Announces $4.0 Million Preferred Stock Redemption and Anti-Dilution Waiver

 

Redeems and Retires 26,667 Series A Preferred Shares, Directly Reducing Senior Preferred Overhang by Over 26%
Secures Full, Irrevocable Waiver and Standdown of All Anti-Dilution Protections across Series A Preferred Stock
Eliminates Key Structural Market Overhang, Paving the Way for Potential Long-Term Growth and M&A Flexibility
Includes Comprehensive Release of Claims, Strengthening Corporate Governance and Balance Sheet Alignment

 

TEMPE, AZ / ACCESS Newswire / September 11, 2026 / Bonk, Inc. (Nasdaq:BNKK) (“Bonk” or the “Company”), a digital asset infrastructure and consumer brand holding company, today announced that on September 4, 2026, it entered into a definitive Preferred Stock Redemption Agreement with Core4 Capital Holdings Corp (“Core4”), an Ohio corporation. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company has agreed to purchase and retire 26,667 shares of its Series A Preferred Stock (“Preferred Shares”) from Core4 for an aggregate purchase price of $4.0 million ($4,000,000.00).

 

This strategic transaction marks a major milestone in Bonk, Inc.’s ongoing commitment to capital structure optimization, balance sheet de-risking, and the proactive protection of common shareholder equity value.

 

“This redemption agreement represents a decisive win for Bonk, Inc. and a huge milestone for our common shareholders,” stated Jarrett Boon, CEO of Bonk, Inc. “By investing $4 million to retire over a quarter of our Series A Preferred Stock and permanently eliminating restrictive anti-dilution provisions, we have taken direct action to defend shareholder value, clean up our capital structure, and establish a clear, frictionless runway for future corporate growth.”

 

Improving the Capital Structure: Why This Decision Drives Shareholder Value

 

1. Permanent Removal of Anti-Dilution Overhang

 

As a material part of the consideration for the transaction, Core4 has irrevocably and unconditionally waived, relinquished, and stood down from any and all anti-dilution rights, protections, and adjustments with respect to its Preferred Shares. This includes all price-based, full-ratchet, weighted-average, broad-based, and narrow-based anti-dilution provisions.

 

Shareholder Impact: The elimination of anti-dilution provisions removes a major legacy structural overhang. Existing common shareholders are now fully protected against potential ratchet-driven dilution in future corporate actions or capital market cycles.

 

2. Immediate Reduction of Preferred Senior Preference

 

By redeeming 26,667 shares, Bonk, Inc. permanently reduces Core4’s preferred stock holdings from 100,000 shares to 73,333 shares-a 26.67% direct reduction in total Series A Preferred Stock.

 

Shareholder Impact: All redeemed shares are officially retired and restored to unissued status, shrinking senior liquidation preferences, voting preferences, and potential future share issuance overhang under the May 2, 2025 Certificate of Designation.

 

 

 

 

3. Clear Path for Strategic Growth and M&A Alignment

 

The agreement formally clarifies that following the consummation of the transaction, Core4 will hold 73,333 Preferred Shares, which, in the event of a merger, convert into 1,516,873 shares of Common Stock of the Company. Furthermore, Core4 has surrendered all voting, liquidation, conversion, and notice rights associated with the redeemed block.

 

Shareholder Impact: We believe this streamlines Bonk’s capital structure thereby potentially improving Bonk’sappeal to institutional investors and expanding the Company’s strategic flexibility for accretive mergers and acquisitions.

 

4. Complete Clean Slate and Legal Release

 

In connection with the transaction, Core4 has agreed to a comprehensive general release of all past, present, and potential legacy claims against Bonk, Inc. arising from Core4’s investment in the Company, delivering total operational stability and legal alignment.

 

“Removing price-based anti-dilution mechanisms provides total clarity and alignment across our entire equity base,” added Mitchell Rudy (“Nom”), Core Contributor to BONK. “This move demonstrates disciplined corporate leadership-using capital strategically to eliminate financial overhangs while positioning the company to execute on major strategic initiatives without structural headwinds.”
