Growth and Acquisition Financing Strategies Required the Increase in Authorized Capital
COSTA MESA, CA, Jan. 24, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE – M Line Holdings, Inc. (OTC Pink: MLHC; "M Line" or the “Company”), announces that over the last few weeks it has twice increased the Authorized Capital of the Company.
The increases were necessary
- To have sufficient stock available to support a new Reg A financing in an amount of $10 million which is still subject to SEC approval.
- To have sufficient stock available to issue to a private investor who is subscribing for shares in the Company at a price greater than market. These shares cannot be sold for a minimum of twelve months.
- Due to the government shutdown and the delay in being able to obtain the Reg A approval, to have sufficient stock available for a small amount of dilutive financing. Although this was not planned, there is a significant need for funding to support M Line’s staggering growth in Revenue.
M Line’s forecasted Revenues, at a minimum of $12 -15 million over the next twelve months, will be greater than at any time in our Company’s twenty-year history.
To support this astonishing increase in revenue, the Company must have the necessary cash for orders. Furthermore, the acquisitions already completed require some cash which the Company is paying over time. The new acquisition in Arizona, which is expected to close in a few days, requires a large down payment, and it brings substantial assets and revenues to the Company plus enormous growth potential.
Our pod manufacturing business has cash needs to meet its sales targets and our planned introduction of a CBD line of products through a new JV requires sales and marketing dollars.
The Revenues and EBITDA generated by the Company will have a much greater impact on the value of the Company than the limited dilution necessary to support that growth.
Tony Anish, CEO of M Line, commented: “I have stated many times that I will be transparent with our shareholders and my intentions are to continue that trend as much as is possible. It has been my goal and our Management Team’s priority to improve shareholder value. We must have the necessary funding so that we can maintain the forward momentum of the Company and achieve these lofty goals. We all, here at M Line, appreciate your ongoing support. STAY TUNED FOR CONTINUING NEWS AND UPDATES.”
