American Marconi Wireless News - Newsmax Enters into Standby Equity Purchase Agreement of Up to $1.2 Billion With Yorkville Advisors

As part of the Purchase Agreement, Newsmax has the option, but not the obligation, to require Yorkville to purchase up to $1.2 billion of ordinary shares in Newsmax at any time during the term of the agreement, subject to certain conditions and limitations. The Purchase Agreement has a term of 24 months.

"We are thrilled by the investor response to our recent public offering and this agreement provides Newsmax the flexibility to raise additional capital when needed, and we are focused on ensuring that the terms of any future funding will be beneficial to the Company," said Christopher Ruddy, CEO of Newsmax, Inc.

"While we are under no obligation to draw on the full amount, this action allows us to maintain a strong balance sheet while adding liquidity to our shares over time. The new access to capital will also provide our team with the flexibility to respond to new opportunities and challenges in an efficient manner as we continue to grow Newsmax as the media landscape evolves."
