Insights

Capital markets analyst

Small registered direct financing with standard fees and a modest warrant.

Ekso Bionics priced 769,490 registered shares at $4.81, targeting net proceeds of about $3.2 million. Proceeds are earmarked for broad corporate needs, which provides flexibility but no project-specific milestones tied to the funds.

The placement agent receives a 6% cash fee and a warrant for up to 15,389 shares at $4.81. The warrant was issued under Section 4(a)(2), meaning the warrant shares are unregistered and would require registration or an exemption for resale.

The closing is expected on or about October 30, 2025, subject to customary conditions. Actual dilution impact will depend on the final closing and any future exercise of the placement agent warrant as disclosed.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities

The information set forth under Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K relating to the Placement Agency Agreement (as defined below) and Placement Agent Warrant (as defined below) is incorporated herein by reference.

Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) offered and sold the Placement Agent Warrant to the Placement Agent (as defined below) in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company relied on this exemption from registration based in part on representations made by the Placement Agent in the Placement Agency Agreement. The Placement Agent Warrant Shares (as defined below), if any, have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.

Item 8.01         Other Events

On October 28, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional investors (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Purchasers an aggregate of 769,490 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), in a registered direct offering (the “Offering”) at an offering price of $4.81 per share. The Offering is expected to close on or about October 30 2025, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

The net proceeds of the Offering are expected to be approximately $3.2 million, after deducting placement agent fees and expenses and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes, which may include research and development activities, selling, general and administrative costs, strategic initiatives and to meet working capital needs.

The Shares were offered pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 and accompanying base prospectus (File No. 333-272607), previously filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company filed a prospectus supplement with the SEC in connection with the sale of the Shares.

On October 28, 2025, in connection with the Company’s entrance into the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a placement agency agreement (the “Placement Agency Agreement”) with Lake Street Capital Markets, LLC (the “Placement Agent”), pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to 6% of the gross cash proceeds received by the Company in the Offering, to issue to the Placement Agent (or its designees) a warrant (the “Placement Agent Warrant”) to purchase up to 15,389 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price equal to $4.81 per share (the “Placement Agent Warrant Shares”), each as of the Closing Date, and to reimburse certain of the Placement Agent’s out-of-pocket expenses.

The Purchase Agreement and the Placement Agency Agreement contain customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Purchasers or the Placement Agent, as applicable, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement and the Placement Agency Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.

The Placement Agent and/or its affiliates has, and in the future may, provide, certain commercial banking, financial advisory, and investment banking services in the ordinary course of business for the Company for which they have received and/or will receive customary fees and commissions.
