(“SUNation” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: SUNE), a leading provider of sustainable solar energy and backup power solutions for households, businesses, and municipalities, today announced the second and final closing of its previously announced securities purchase agreement with certain institutional investors for the purchase and sale of 4,347,826 shares of the Company’s common stock (or common stock equivalents in lieu thereof), Series A warrants to purchase up to an aggregate 17,391,306 shares of the Company’s common stock and Series B warrants to purchase up to an aggregate 17,391,306 shares of the Company’s common stock at an effective purchase price of $1.15 per share (or common stock equivalents in lieu thereof) and associated warrants in a registered direct offering (the “offering”) priced at-the-market under Nasdaq rules, for gross proceeds of $5 million. Together with the approximately $15.0 million in gross proceeds from the previously announced first tranche closing completed on February 27, 2025, the Company raised approximately $20.0 million in aggregate gross proceeds from the offering before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. “The completion of this offering marks an important milestone for SUNation and its shareholders,” said Scott Maskin, Chief Executive Officer. “We applied a portion of the proceeds from the first tranche of the offering to repay in full $9.4 million in senior and junior secured loans, which materially improved our balance sheet, stabilized our operations, and enhanced our cash flow. The closing of this second tranche provides us with greater financial flexibility to continue to pay down contractual obligations, invest in the future of SUNation and pursue our long-term growth objectives, including strategic acquisitions of regionally strong solar companies across the United States. We continue to meet head-on the challenges that face our industry and remain confident in the opportunities that lie ahead.”   The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund its operations, including for working capital, potential strategic transactions, payment of certain debt obligations, and for other general corporate purposes.  Roth Capital Partners acted as the exclusive placement agent for the registered direct offering.
