Freight Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: FRGT) (“Fr8Tech'' or “Freight
Technologies'' or the “Company”), a logistics management innovation
company, offering a diverse portfolio of technology-driven
solutions that address distinct challenges within the supply chain
ecosystem, today announced the gross sale of $3.0
million (“the Offering”) consisting of 1,540,832 Series A4
preferred shares of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share
("Preferred Shares") to certain accredited investors in a
non-brokered private placement.
The Offering raised net cash proceeds of
approximately $2.9 million (after deducting the transfer agent and
legal fees and expenses of the Offering). The Company intends to
use the net cash proceeds from the Offering for working capital and
corporate purposes, including funding strategic growth initiatives
and enhancing balance sheet flexibility.
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Memorandum
and Articles of Association filed with the Registrar of Corporate
Affairs of the British Virgins Islands on January 31, 2025 (the
“Amended and Restated M&A”), each Preferred Share is
immediately convertible on the date of issuance, by dividing the
respective Series A Reference Price (as defined in the Amended and
Restated M&A) of such Preferred Share by the applicable
conversion price (the “Preferred Shares Conversion Price”) at the
option of the shareholder (at any time and from time to time), and
without the payment of additional consideration by the shareholder,
into such number of fully paid and non-assessable ordinary shares,
with no par value per share, of the Company (the “Ordinary
Shares”). Pursuant to the Amended and Restated M&A, the
Preferred Shares Conversion Price shall be the greater of (i) the
lowest daily VWAP (as defined in the Amended and Restated M&A)
of the Ordinary Shares in the seven (7) consecutive Trading Day (as
defined in the Amended and Restated M&A) period immediately
preceding the date of the conversion of the applicable Preferred
Share and (ii) the Series A4 Conversion Price Floor (as defined in
the Amended and Restated M&A).
The Company is required to file a registration
statement with Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for the
Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares,
no later than March 30, 2025. The full description of the Offering
and Preferred Shares can be reviewed in documents attached to the
Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on
