| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
Registered Direct Offering
On December 4, 2025, Soluna Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the investors in a registered direct offering: (i) 5,929,944 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per shares (“Common Stock”), (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to 12,149,200 shares of Common Stock, and (ii) Series C Warrants (the “Series C Warrants”) to purchase up to 18,079,144 shares of Common Stock (the “Offering”). The purchase price for each share of Common Stock and accompanying Series C Warrant sold in the Offering was $1.77.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and the investors and customary indemnification rights and obligations of the parties. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to certain restrictions on the issuance and sale of the Shares and securities convertible or exercisable into shares of Common Stock for a period of 90 days following the closing of the Offering, subject to certain exceptions. The Company has also agreed to certain restrictions on engaging in a “variable rate transaction” (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) for a period of six months following the closing of the Offering, subject to an exception.
The Offering is being made pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-286638), previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 18, 2025 and declared effective by the SEC on April 29, 2025, the related base prospectus dated April 29, 2025 and the prospectus supplement to be filed with the SEC (the “Prospectus Supplement”).
H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (the “Placement Agent” or “Wainwright”) is acting as placement agent in connection with the Offering.
The Company expects to receive gross proceeds of approximately $32 million from the Offering, before deducting placement agent fees and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Offering for working capital, project-level equity, and general corporate purposes.
The Offering is expected to close on or about December 5, 2025, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
Pre-funded Warrants
The Pre-funded Warrants will be exercisable immediately and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-funded Warrants are exercised in full. Each Pre-funded Warrant will be exercisable for one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share of Common Stock. The Pre-funded Warrants are exercisable in whole or in part by delivering to the Company a duly executed exercise notice and by payment in full in immediately available funds for the number of shares of Common Stock purchased upon such exercise or, at the option of each holder, by means of a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to the formula set forth in the Pre-funded Warrants.
A holder of Pre-funded Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its Pre-funded Warrants if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. A holder may increase or decrease the beneficial ownership limitation up to 9.99%, provided, however, that any increase in the beneficial ownership limitation shall not be effective until 61 days following notice of such change to the Company.
Series C Warrants
The Series C Warrants will have an exercise price of $1.65 per share of Common Stock. The Series C Warrants will be immediately exercisable and will expire on the five-year anniversary of the date of issuance. The Series C Warrants are exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part by delivering to the Company a duly executed exercise notice and, at any time a registration statement registering the resale or other disposition of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Series C Warrants under the Securities Act is effective and available for such shares, or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is available for such shares, by payment in full in immediately available funds for the number of shares of Common Stock purchased upon such exercise. If at the time of exercise there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the resale or other disposition of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Series C Warrants, then the Series C Warrants may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to the formula set forth in the Series C Warrant.
A holder of Series C Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its Series C Warrants if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder prior to issuance of the Series C Warrants, 9.99%) of the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. A holder may increase or decrease the beneficial ownership limitation up to 9.99%, provided, however, that any increase in the beneficial ownership limitation shall not be effective until 61 days following notice of such change to us.
Placement Agent Compensation
Pursuant to the engagement letter, dated April 29, 2025, and further amended on September 22, 2025, by and between the Company and the Placement Agent, the Company has agreed to pay the Placement Agent (i) a cash placement fee equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering. The Company also agreed to issue to the Placement Agent, or its respective designees, placement agent warrants (“Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase up to 903,957 shares of Common Stock (which equals 5.0% of the number of shares of Common Stock and Pre-funded Warrants being offered in the Offering) with an exercise price per share of $2.2125. The Placement Agent Warrants will expire on the five-year anniversary of the commencement of sales of the Offering.
