Fort Lauderdale, FL, May 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Singing Machine Company, Inc. (“Singing Machine” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: MICS) -- the North American leader in consumer karaoke products -- today announced it has terminated its “at-the-market” (“ATM”) equity program with Aegis Capital Corp., as sales agent (the “Agent”). The Company elected to terminate the ATM because it had achieved its objective of raising capital under the ATM.
Through the utilization of the ATM, the Company sold approximately 1,067,000 shares of common stock and raised approximately $1.74 million in gross proceeds, or approximately $1.64 per share.
Gary Atkinson, the Company’s CEO commented, “We’re pleased to have successfully utilized the ATM as the most cost-effective form of raising equity capital. The Company successfully met its goal of bolstering its balance sheet without issuing warrants or providing a discount to market. The proceeds from the ATM will provide the Company with access to working capital while we continue to execute on the business and deliver a best-in-class karaoke experience to over a million households throughout the world. The additional working capital also provides us with fresh capital to invest in exciting new product development for our newly acquired Sesame Street licensing deal.”
