Insights

Capstone sweetens conversion terms on part of its 2025 note, increasing potential equity issuance from that tranche.

The company and its institutional investor agreed to cut the conversion price on $500,000 of principal under the October 2025 Convertible Note from $1.10 to $0.57 per share. This makes equity conversion more attractive for the noteholder on that portion.

The note is part of senior secured convertible notes totaling up to $10,909,885 in original principal, issued with an 8.34% original issue discount. The filing states that 8,388,336 shares of common stock are registered for issuance upon conversion of these notes under existing registration statements.

As of April 16, 2026, the principal balance of the October 2025 Convertible Note is $1,863,471.69. The new $0.57 conversion price applies only to $500,000 of that principal, with the remainder governed by prior terms. Future conversions under this adjusted tranche will determine the actual share issuance.

senior secured convertible notes financial
"the Company authorized the issuance of senior secured convertible notes to the Buyer"
A senior secured convertible note is a loan a company issues that sits near the top of its repayment order (senior), is backed by specific assets as collateral (secured), and can be swapped into company shares later (convertible). For investors this matters because it combines lower risk of repayment and legal protection from the collateral with the upside of converting into equity—so it affects both the safety of debt holders and potential dilution for shareholders.
original issue discount financial
"which are being issued with a 8.34% original issue discount"
Original issue discount (OID) is the difference between a debt security’s face value and the lower price at which it is first sold, treated as additional interest that accrues over the life of the instrument. For investors it matters because OID raises the effective yield and changes taxable income and the holding’s cost basis over time — think of buying a $100 voucher for $90 and recognizing the $10 gain as earned interest as the voucher approaches maturity.
Conversion Price Voluntary Adjustment Notice financial
"agreed, pursuant to a Conversion Price Voluntary Adjustment Notice signed by both parties"
Form S-1 regulatory
"Pursuant to the effective registration statements on Form S-1 (File Nos. 333-289222 and 333-291041)"
A Form S-1 is the registration filing a company submits to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission when it plans to offer stock to the public, most commonly for an initial public offering. Think of it as the company’s full disclosure packet or blueprint: it contains audited financials, business description, management background, risk factors and details of the offering, giving investors the information needed to judge the company’s financial health and potential risks before buying shares.
Material Definitive Agreement regulatory
"Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement."
A material definitive agreement is a legally binding contract that creates major, long‑term obligations or rights for a company, such as loans, asset sales, mergers, or supplier deals. Think of it like a mortgage or lease for a business: it can change future cash flow, risk and control, so investors watch these agreements closely because they can materially affect a company’s value, financial health and stock price.
