The closed financing is aimed at advancing the proposed Tekne acquisition, repaying debt and supporting a reverse stock split after NYSE American moved to begin delisting proceedings.
NUBURU said it closed its previously announced best-efforts public offering, generating gross proceeds of about $38.0 million before fees and expenses. The company said the financing is intended to help advance the proposed Tekne acquisition and repay outstanding indebtedness, while also supporting efforts to simplify its capital structure. The offering included 244,372,984 shares of common stock and/or pre-funded warrants, each sold with accompanying Series B Preferred Stock. The combined public offering price was $0.1555 per common share and accompanying Series B Preferred Stock, or $0.1554 per pre-funded warrant and accompanying Series B Preferred Stock, reflecting the $0.0001 exercise price of each pre-funded warrant. NUBURU said the $0.1555 offering price represented about a 30% premium to its July 15, 2026 closing stock price of $0.1199. NUBURU also said NYSE American notified the company that, because its stock traded below $0.10 during the trading day, it was in violation of Section 1003(f)(v) of the NYSE American Company Guide and the exchange would commence delisting proceedings. The company said it plans to appeal and implement a reverse stock split, for which stockholders have already approved authorization. Joseph Gunnar & Co. acted as exclusive placement agent, and NUBURU said the deal was led by a New York-based single-family office with participation from other accredited investors and family offices.
