Regulation FD Disclosure regulatory
"Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure. On April 21, 2026, Soluna Holdings, Inc. issued a press release"
Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock financial
"9.0% Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share"
A cumulative perpetual preferred stock is a share that acts like a long-lasting hybrid between a bond and a dividend-paying stock: it promises regular fixed payments that, if missed, accumulate and must be paid later before common shareholders get dividends, and it has no set maturity date. Investors care because it can provide steady, higher-priority income similar to interest, but with limited capital upside, sensitivity to interest rates, and the risk that payments can be delayed even though they continue to accrue.
behind-the-meter technical
"supports Soluna’s model of delivering behind-the-meter digital infrastructure that converts surplus renewable energy"
Equipment or systems located on a customer’s side of the electricity meter—such as rooftop solar panels, battery storage, electric vehicle chargers, or energy controls—that generate, store, or manage power for use on-site rather than being supplied through the utility’s grid. Investors care because behind-the-meter assets change how much power a customer buys, can create new revenue or savings streams, affect demand patterns, and shift regulatory or business models in the energy market, much like a homeowner installing their own water tank reduces municipal supply needs.
forward-looking statements regulatory
"This announcement contains forward-looking statements. These statements are made under the “safe harbor” provisions"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
