Repricing Trigger Events Removed from Series F Preferred Stock
MILTON, GA, Sept. 13, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Attis Industries Inc. (NASDAQ: ATIS) (the “Company” or “Attis”), a diversified innovation and technology holding company emphasizing renewable fuels, bio-based plastics, healthcare and building a communications infrastructure, is pleased to provide a clarification regarding the conversion price of its outstanding securities.
On August 3, 2018, the Company filed an amendment to its Series F Preferred Stock designations, as disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 6, 2018. Pursuant to such amendment, the conversion price of Series F Preferred Stock was set at NOT LESS than $0.50, and the repricing "triggers", as defined in the previous Series F Preferred Stock designations, which would have occurred on certain future dates, have been REMOVED. The conversion price of the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock and the exercise price of several classes of outstanding warrants would also have been reduced to the “reset price” of the Series F Preferred Stock upon any such repricing trigger. All of such securities were previously repriced to $0.49356 on May 7, 2018 pursuant to a price reset as a result of the first Series F Preferred Stock trigger event. Now, pursuant to the recent amendment, no such trigger events will occur in the future.
In addition, the previously announced proposed acquisition of Custom Cable, Inc. on September 10, 2018, is valued at a $4.6 million enterprise value, pursuant to which Attis would acquire all of the outstanding stock of Custom Cable, Inc. upon closing.
Jeff Cosman, Chief Executive Officer of Attis, commented, “We have worked extremely hard and been successful over the past few months to restructure and refinance our balance sheet. We are pleased with our improved position and grateful to our new financial supporters. These results reflect our efforts to minimize shareholders equity dilution and maximize shareholder equity value, which remain ongoing. On August 21, 2018, we reported our shareholder equity increased to $13.7 million from a deficit of $16.8 million for the period ended December 31, 2017 and we recently regained compliance with Nasdaq’s shareholder equity requirement. We also announced, on September 4, 2018, a further increase of shareholder value with the elimination of approximately $3.3 million of senior secured debt. I, for one, remain a long common shareholder and very optimistic about the Company's future prospects, as I have never sold a single share and most recently invested $1,250,000 at $4.13 per share in January 2017.”
