RONKONKOMA, N.Y., February 28, 2025 - SUNation Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq: SUNE), a leading provider of sustainable solar energy and backup power solutions for households, businesses, and municipalities, today announced the initial closing of its previously announced securities purchase agreement with certain institutional investors for the purchase and sale of 17,391,306 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.

The initial closing of the offering generated gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $15 million through the issuance of an aggregate of 13,043,480 shares of common stock (or common stock equivalents) consisting of (i) 1,965,000 shares of common stock (the “Shares”), and (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 11,078,480 shares of common stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants).

The second closing of the offering is expected to generate gross proceeds of up to $5 million consisting of (iii) 4,347,826 shares of Common Stock (or common stock equivalents), (iv) Series A warrants to purchase up to 17,391,306 shares of common stock, and (v) Series B warrants to purchase up to 17,391,306 shares of common stock. The second closing of the offering is expected to occur upon the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including receipt of approval by the Company’s stockholders in a specially called stockholder meeting to approve the issuance of the series A common stock warrants, series B common stock warrants and the shares of common stock underlying such warrants, in addition to other matters.

The gross proceeds from the offering, assuming the second closing is consummated, are expected to be approximately $20 million before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this 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, LLC is acting as the exclusive placement agent for the registered direct offering.

The Series A warrants will have an exercise price of $1.725 per share subject to standard adjustments for dividends, splits and similar events; a one-time adjustment on the date of issuance (as described in the warrants), subject to a floor price described therein; and also subject to adjustment upon a Dilutive Issuance (as described in the warrants), subject to a floor price described therein. The Series A warrants will be issued at the second closing and will be exercisable immediately after issuance and have a term of exercise equal to 5 years from the date of issuance.

The Series B warrants will have an exercise price of $2.875 per share subject to standard adjustments for dividends, splits and similar events; a one-time adjustment on the date of issuance (as described in the warrants), subject to a floor price described therein; and also subject to adjustment upon a Dilutive Issuance (as described in the warrants), subject to a floor price described therein. The Series B warrants will be issued at the second closing and will be exercisable immediately after issuance and have a term of exercise equal to 5 years from the date of issuance. The Series B warrants may also be exercised on an alternative cashless basis pursuant to which the holder may exchange each warrant for 3 shares of common stock.

The securities in the offering described above are being offered by the Company pursuant to a “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-267066) previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and declared effective by the SEC on September 2, 2022.
