Rhea-AI Filing Summary

urban-gro, Inc. entered a new equity purchase agreement giving it the right to sell up to $25,000,000 of common stock to Hudson Global Ventures over about 24 months, at a 10% discount to specified market-based prices and within volume-based limits.

The company issued Hudson a warrant for 55,556 shares at $12.50 per share exercisable for five years, and reserved 200,000 shares with its transfer agent as a baseline for potential issuances. The company must obtain stockholder approval to issue more than 136,845 shares under this arrangement.

urban-gro also entered a short-term $105,000 term loan with Agile entities, maturing 28 weeks after the effective date, including a $5,000 administrative fee and a prepayment premium equal to interest that would have accrued to maturity, along with default-related protections for the lenders.

Insights

urban-gro adds flexible equity access and a small, costly bridge loan.

urban-gro, Inc. now has an equity line allowing sales of up to $25,000,000 of common stock to Hudson Global Ventures over roughly 24 months at a 10% discount to specified trading prices, within minimum and maximum draw sizes tied to recent trading volume.

The structure, including stockholder approval above 136,845 shares and a 200,000-share reserve with the transfer agent, highlights potential dilution that depends entirely on how much of the facility the company chooses to use. A warrant for 55,556 shares at $12.50 adds additional potential equity issuance over up to five years from February 4, 2026.

The separate $105,000 term loan from Agile entities, maturing 28 weeks after the February 3, 2026 effective date, appears designed as short-term working capital, including an administrative fee and a prepayment fee equal to interest through maturity, plus an extra 5% interest after default. These terms suggest relatively expensive bridge financing alongside the longer-horizon equity line.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

ELOC Purchase Agreement

 

On February 4, 2026, the Company entered into an equity purchase agreement (the “ELOC Purchase Agreement”) with Hudson Global Ventures, LLC (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to direct the Investor to purchase up to $25,000,000 of the Company’s common stock (the “ELOC Shares”) upon satisfaction of certain terms and conditions contained in the ELOC Purchase Agreement. Sales of the ELOC Shares, if any, are subject to certain limitations, and may occur from time to time at the Company’s sole discretion over the approximately 24-month period commencing on the date of execution of the ELOC Purchase Agreement, unless the ELOC Purchase Agreement is earlier terminated pursuant to its terms.

 

The Investor has no right to require any sales by the Company, but is obligated to make purchases at the Company’s direction subject to certain conditions. Each purchase must involve an aggregate amount of shares of the Company’s common stock of at least $25,000 but not exceeding the lesser of (i) $2,000,000 or (ii) 200% of the average daily trading volume of the common stock during the three trading days immediately before the date the Company directs the Investor to purchase the shares of common stock (the “Put Notice Date”).

 

The purchase price to be paid by the Investor for the ELOC Shares will be the lesser of (i) ninety percent (90%) of the average of the three lowest traded prices of the Company’s common stock during the ten trading days immediately preceding the date of the Put Notice (as defined in the ELOC Purchase Agreement) and (ii) ninety percent (90%) of the lowest traded price of the Company’s common stock on any trading day during the period beginning on the date of delivery of the Put Notice and continuing through the date that is three trading days immediately following the Clearing Date (as defined in the ELOC Purchase Agreement).

 

Actual sales of ELOC Shares to the Investor from time to time will depend on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common stock and determinations by the Company as to the appropriate sources of funding for the Company and its operations. The net proceeds that the Company may receive under the ELOC Purchase Agreement, if any, cannot be determined at this time, since the amount will depend on the frequency and prices at which the Company sells ELOC Shares to the Investor, the Company’s ability to meet the conditions of the ELOC Purchase Agreement, the other limitations, terms and conditions of the ELOC Purchase Agreement, and any impacts of the beneficial ownership limitation (described below).

 

As consideration for the Investor’s execution and delivery of the ELOC Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to the Investor certain common stock purchase warrant for the purchase of 55,556 shares of the common stock at an exercise price of $12.50 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Warrant”). Under the Warrant, the Investor may exercise the Warrant during the period commencing on February 4, 2026 and ending on 5:00 p.m. eastern standard time on the date that is five (5) years after February 4, 2026. In addition, the Company will pay up to $20,000.00 to the Investor’s legal counsel for the Investor’s expenses relating to the preparation of the ELOC Purchase Agreement.

 

The ELOC Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, conditions and indemnification obligations of the parties.

 

The Company must obtain stockholder approval to issue an aggregate number of shares of common stock to the Investor, under the ELOC Purchase Agreement, in excess of 136,845 shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the ELOC Purchase Agreement.

 

In connection with the ELOC Purchase Agreement, the Company also entered a registration rights agreement with the Investor on February 4, 2026 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is obligated to file with the SEC a registration statement for the resale by the Investor of a specified number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock issuable according to the ELOC Purchase Agreement. The Company agreed to file such registration statement within forty-five (45) days of the execution of the ELOC Purchase Agreement, and to file one or more additional registration statements if necessary.

Unless earlier terminated as provided in the ELOC Purchase Agreement, the ELOC Purchase Agreement will terminate automatically on the earliest to occur of: (i) twenty-four (24) months after the execution of the ELOC Purchase Agreement, (ii) the date on which the Investor shall have purchased the maximum amount of ELOC Shares issuable under the ELOC Purchase Agreement, or (iii) the effective date of any written notice of termination delivered pursuant to the terms of the ELOC Purchase Agreement.

 

Pursuant to the ELOC Purchase Agreement, as long as the ELOC Purchase Agreement is effective, the Company agreed not, without the prior written consent of the Investor, to enter into an agreement whereby the Company has the right to “put” its securities to an investor or underwriter over an agreed period of time and at an agreed price or price formula. Additionally, the Company agreed, without the prior written consent of the Investor, not to (i) issue or sell any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive, additional shares of Common Stock (a) at a conversion price, exercise price or exchange rate or other price that is based upon, and/or varies with, the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities or (b) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common Stock or (ii) issues securities at a future determined price (a “Variable Rate Transaction”), provided, however, that an Equity Line of Credit shall not be deemed to be a Variable Rate Transaction.

 

In connection with the ELOC Purchase Agreement, the Company has reserved 200,000 shares of Common Stock with the Transfer Agent for issuance in connection with a Put Notice and/or an Exercise Notice. Such Reserve Shares do not represent issued or outstanding shares and are not being registered for resale pursuant to this registration statement.

 

The ELOC Purchase Agreement and Warrant were executed prior to the Company's 1-for-25 reverse stock split effected on February 9, 2026. All share numbers and per-share prices in this Current Report have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split. Under the terms of the Warrant, the exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise automatically adjusted upon the reverse stock split.
