[8-K] Fundamental Global Inc. 8.00% Cumulative Preferred Stock Reports Material Event

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

On 29 July 2025 Fundamental Global Inc. (Nasdaq:FGF, FGFPP) signed a Securities Purchase Agreement with accredited investors for a private placement of up to 40,000,000 pre-funded warrants at $5.00 each (including the $0.001 exercise price), implying gross proceeds of roughly $200 million. The warrants become exercisable after a charter amendment that increases authorized shares and may be paid for in cash, BTC, ETH or USDC. ThinkEquity acts as sole placement agent, earning a 3% cash fee and warrants equal to 7.5% of the securities sold at a $5.50 strike. The company agreed to a 30-day ban on additional issuances and a 90-day restriction on stock splits.

Net proceeds will fund an Ethereum-focused corporate treasury. To execute the strategy, FGF entered a three-year Asset Management Agreement with Galaxy Digital Capital Management, which will manage the crypto portfolio under a long-only ETH strategy for a tiered 0.75-1.25% fee (minimum $1 million annually). A Registration Rights Agreement requires FGF to file a resale registration statement within 30 days. The company also announced creation of FG CVR Trust; shareholders of record 8 Aug 2025 will receive non-transferable CVRs linked to distributions from legacy non-core assets.

Positive

• Potential $200 million capital infusion without immediate share issuance cash cost.
• Professional crypto management by Galaxy Digital may enhance returns through staking strategies.
• Shareholder CVR offers additional upside from disposition of non-core assets.

Negative

• Up to 40 million new shares represent significant dilution once warrants are exercised.
• Allocation of proceeds to cryptocurrency exposes the balance sheet to price volatility and regulatory scrutiny.
• Minimum $1 million annual fee to Galaxy Digital increases fixed operating costs.

Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: Large capital raise, but heavy dilution and crypto risk offset benefits.

The $200 million private placement strengthens liquidity and funds a new treasury strategy. However, 40 million potential shares could meaningfully dilute existing holders, and proceeds are earmarked for volatile crypto assets. Short lock-ups limit further issuance, yet long-term share overhang and a guaranteed $1 million annual asset-management fee weigh on future EPS. Overall impact skews neutral until execution and ETH performance are clearer.

Crypto Treasury Specialist

TL;DR: Strategic ETH treasury move leverages Galaxy expertise, could add upside.

Partnering with Galaxy Digital provides institutional-grade custody and staking capabilities, giving FGF potential yield on ETH holdings while outsourcing operational complexity. Paying in crypto aligns with target assets and may appeal to digital-asset investors. Success depends on ETH price trajectory, but the move differentiates FGF and may unlock new capital channels. From a crypto-strategy view, the announcement is favorable.

Securities Purchase Agreement

On July 29, 2025, Fundamental Global Inc. (the “Company”) entered into securities purchase agreement with certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Purchasers in a private placement offering (the “Offering”) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 40,000,000 shares (the “Pre-Funded Warrant Shares,”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at an offering price of $5.00 per Pre-Funded Warrant including the nominal exercise price of $.001 per Pre-Funded Warrant Share (the “PFW Purchase Price”), payable at the option of the Purchaser in cash, Bitcoin, USDC or ETH, the native token of the Ethereum network. If Purchaser elects to pay the PFW Purchase Price in a cryptocurrency, then the amount of such cryptocurrency to be paid shall equal (a) the per PFW Purchase Price, divided by (b) the spot exchange rate for that cryptocurrency (i.e. BTC, ETH or USDC, as applicable) as published by Coinbase.com at 8:00 p.m. (New York City time) on July 25, 2025.

Each of the Pre-Funded Warrants is immediately exercisable, upon the effectiveness of an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation providing for, another other things, an increase in the amount of authorized shares of Common Stock, for one share of Common Stock at the exercise price of $0.001 per Pre-Funded Warrant Share and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants issued in the Offering are exercised in full. Certain Pre-Funded Warrants were issued with an automatic exercise feature, which will result in the automatic exercise of such Pre-Funded Warrant upon the effectiveness of an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation providing for, another other things, an increase in the amount of authorized shares of Common Stock. Each Purchaser’s ability to exercise its Pre-Funded Warrants in exchange for shares of Common Stock is subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations set forth therein.
