Insights
Edgemode adds costly convertible debt with significant equity issuance.
Edgemode, Inc. raised working capital by issuing a $287,500 original issue discount promissory note for net proceeds of $250,000, paired with 8,500,000 commitment shares. The note carries a 10% annual interest rate, with a higher 24% per annum (or legal maximum) on overdue principal and a maturity date of September 15, 2026, indicating relatively expensive short‑term funding.
The note is convertible at 65% of the lowest closing price over the prior ten trading days or $0.01, subject to adjustment, which can lead to substantial share issuance depending on future prices. There is a 4.99% cap on ownership by the investor and affiliates, but the structure, combined with free commitment shares, introduces potential dilution.
The investor may require up to 25% of future cash proceeds from any source or asset sales to be applied to repayment, with pre‑default repayments at 110% of outstanding principal and accrued interest. Customary events of default would make the note immediately due, so future liquidity, cash inflows, and any piggyback registration the investor may request under a future registration statement will be important elements in how this obligation evolves.
