Boost
Run Receives Approximately $45 Million in Gross Proceeds from Public Warrant Exercises
Company
simplifies capital structure and reduces warrant overhang, supporting continued investment in AI cloud infrastructure growth.
NORTHBROOK,
Ill. and NEW YORK — July 6, 2026 — Boost Run, Inc. (Nasdaq: BRUN) (“Boost Run” or the “Company”),
an NVIDIA Preferred Cloud Partner and provider of AI cloud infrastructure and high-performance compute (“HPC”) solutions,
today provided an update on its capital markets initiatives, including recent activity under its public warrant exercise program.
Since
the closing of its business combination on May 8, 2026, the Company has received over $45 million in gross cash proceeds from the exercise
of its public warrants. To date, approximately 4.0 million of the 11.47 million public warrants issued have been exercised, leaving approximately
7.5 million public warrants outstanding.
The
Company intends to use the net proceeds from the warrant exercises for general corporate purposes, including to support its strategic
objectives and continued investment in AI cloud infrastructure and HPC capacity.
The
warrant exercises have also reduced the number of outstanding public warrants and related warrant overhang. The Company believes the
reduction in outstanding warrants, together with the issuance of common stock upon exercise, may simplify its capital structure and support
increased trading liquidity over time.
“The
exercise of these warrants has provided additional capital to support our growth strategy following our transition to the public markets,”
said Andrew Karos, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Boost Run. “These proceeds strengthen our balance sheet and provide additional
flexibility as we continue to scale our GPU capacity and address customer demand for AI compute. We also believe that reducing the number
of outstanding public warrants is an important step in simplifying our capital structure and aligning the Company for long-term growth.”
The
Company also continues to engage with SPAC sponsor syndicate and other stakeholders to its optimize its capital structure and post-business-combination
ownership. Any material developments will be disclosed in accordance with applicable securities laws and Nasdaq rules.
