Acceleware Ltd. Announces Closing of First Tranche of Non-Brokered Private Placement
CALGARY, Alberta, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Acceleware® Ltd. (“Acceleware” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: AXE), a leading innovator of cutting-edge radio frequency (“RF”) power-to-heat technologies targeting process heat for critical minerals, amine regeneration (for carbon capture and other applications), and enhanced oil production, announces that the Company closed the first tranche of the non-brokered private placement of units (the “Units”) that it previously announced on June 30, 2025 (the “Private Placement”) and distributed a total of 7,913,342 Units, at a price of $0.10 per Unit, for total gross proceeds of $791,334.20. It is anticipated that one or more subsequent tranches of the Private Placement will be closed in due course.
Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one common share purchase warrant of the Company (a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder of the Warrant to acquire one Common Share, at an exercise price of $0.20, which will expire which will expire 24 months from the date of issuance. If the Common Shares trade at a closing price at or greater than $0.30 per Common Share for a period of thirty (30) consecutive trading days, Acceleware may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants by giving notice to the holders thereof, and in such case, the Warrants will expire on the 30th day after the date on which such notice is given by Acceleware.
The Common Shares issued in connection with the Private Placement, the Warrants, and any Common Shares issued upon exercise of the Warrants will be subject to a four-month hold period which will expire on December 2, 2025 in accordance with applicable securities legislation. There were no finders’ fees or commissions paid in connection with the Private Placement.
The Company expects to use the proceeds of the Private Placement to fund a portion of the Company’s RF XL 2.0 redeployment plan, to advance commercialization of new RF heating applications, including critical minerals applications and amine regeneration applications including carbon capture, and for general corporate purposes.
Insiders of the Company purchased a total of 1,300,000 Units under the Private Placement, which is considered a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). Acceleware relied on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements of MI 61-101 based on a determination that the fair market value of the Private Placement does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company. No new insiders and no control persons were created in connection with the Private Placement.
