Note I – Warrants
Public Warrants
Each public warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of shares of common stock. This means only a whole warrant may be exercised at a given time by a warrant holder. The warrants will expire on September 2, 2026, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
The Company may call the public warrants for redemption as follows: (1) in whole and not in part; (2) at a price of $0.01 per warrant; (3) upon a minimum of 30 days prior written notice of redemption; and (4) only if the last reported closing price of the common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the 3rd trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
If the Company calls the public warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the public warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.”
The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of shares of the Company’s common stock or other similar event. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrant shares.
On February 20, 2025, the Company directed its warrant agent to deliver a notice of redemption to each registered holder of the outstanding public warrants in accordance with the terms under the warrant agreement as further described above. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, 6,738,225 public warrants were exercised and converted into 6,738,225 shares of Company’s common stock at the exercise price of $11.50 per share for proceeds of $77.5 million and 1,450,586 public warrants were redeemed by the Company at $0.01 per warrant.
As of March 31, 2025, there were no public warrants issued and outstanding and as of December 31, 2024, there were 8,188,811 public warrants issued and outstanding.
Private Warrants
The terms and provisions of the public warrants above also apply to the private warrants. If the private warrants are held by holders other than the original holders or their respective permitted transferees, the private warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the public warrants. The original holders and their respective permitted transferees have the option to exercise the private warrants on a cashless basis.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, 4,631,799 private warrants were exercised on a cashless basis for 2,293,739 shares of the Company’s common stock. The conversion factor was derived by multiplying the amount of common shares underlying the warrants by the excess fair value over the warrant exercise price and then dividing by the fair value. The fair value is defined as the average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the ten (10) trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of exercise was provided to the Company’s stock transfer agent. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2025, 467,174 private warrants were exercised and converted into 467,174 shares of the Company’s common stock at the exercise price of $11.50 per share for proceeds of $5.4 million. Upon exercise, the Company remeasured the fair value of the related warrants and then released the associated liability upon issuance of the Company’s common stock. Refer to Note D – Fair Value of Financial Instruments for information on the Level 3 inputs used to value the private warrants.
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were 2,633,195 and 7,732,168, respectively, private warrants issued and outstanding.
