Insights

High Roller raises $1M via a locked-up private placement on standard terms.

High Roller Technologies, Inc. agreed to sell 357,143 common shares at $2.80 per share in a private placement to an accredited investor, for expected gross proceeds of about $1,000,000. The shares are being issued under a Section 4(a)(2)/Rule 506 exemption, meaning they are initially restricted and not sold in a public offering.

The investor accepted a 180-day lock-up on the new shares, which can reduce immediate resale pressure. The company committed to file a registration statement covering the resale of these shares within 45 days of the January 8, 2026 purchase agreement, which would later allow public resales once effective.

Use of proceeds is described broadly as working capital and general corporate purposes, without specific projects identified. The filing also notes the CEO’s annual base salary increasing to $330,000 effective January 1, 2026, which is a governance and compensation update rather than a major financial event.
