Nature's Miracle Holding Inc. (NASDAQ: NMHI)
("Nature's Miracle" or the "Company"), a leader in vertical farming
technology and infrastructure, today announced it has entered into
a term sheet to acquire 100% of all the outstanding shares of
Agrify Corporation (NASDAQ: AGFY) (“Agrify”), a leading provider of
innovative cultivation and extraction solutions.
When closed, the strategic acquisition of Agrify
is expected to bring a meaningful revenue stream for Nature’s
Miracle through Agrify’s powerful SaaS and AI technology which can
be applied to Nature’s Miracle’s vertical farming business, while
its leading market share in cannabis extraction continues to drive
revenue growth. In return, Agrify will benefit from the distinct
expertise and strong operators that comprise the Nature’s Miracle
management team and its prominent market position providing
advanced horticultural and cultivation lighting technologies
powering agricultural vertical farming.
Under the terms of the agreement, Nature’s
Miracle expects to acquire Agrify through issuing shares of
Nature’s Miracle common stock which would result in Nature’s
Miracle wholly owning Agrify. Each shareholder of Agrify would be
expected to receive approximately 0.45 of a share of Nature’s
Miracle common stock for each share of Agrify common stock, subject
to customary adjustments. Based on the fully diluted shares
outstanding of 15,174,501 (including warrants) and NMHI closing
price of $0.93 as of April 16, 2024, AGFY equity is valued at
$6,350,528, or $0.4185 per share. Upon closing of the Merger,
Raymond Chang, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of
Agrify, will assume the role as President of the Agrify division of
Nature’s Miracle and will join the board of Nature’s Miracle. The
transaction is expected to close within six months of this
announcement, subject to completion of mutual due diligence,
shareholder approval and customary closing conditions.
Pursuant to the term sheet with Agrify, Nature’s
Miracle agreed to purchase approximately $750,000 of horticultural
LED lighting goods from Agrify prior to the closing of the
acquisition. Nature’s Miracle also executed a term sheet related to
the current debt of Agrify held by two entities controlled by
Raymond Chang, Agrify’s Chief Executive Officer. Pursuant to the
term sheet, Nature’s Miracle will purchase all of the outstanding
indebtedness from the entities with a combination of cash and
Nature’s Miracle stock.
James Li, Chief Executive Officer of Nature’s
Miracle, commented, “Following our recent public company debut, we
are thrilled to announce the signing of a term sheet to acquire
Agrify. As we reviewed opportunities to accelerate our business’s
growth, it was clear that Agrify represented a business with
immediate synergy functions. We believe that Agrify will not only
provide meaningful revenue with their cannabis extraction business,
but the combined business will benefit through efficiencies with
the consolidation of our advanced lighting technology and their
industry leading Software as a service (“SaaS”) model and Vertical
Farming Unit (“VFU”) technology. We are especially intrigued by the
AI learning capability of Agrify’s SaaS and VFU system. We would
like to thank Raymond and the entire Agrify team for building
Agrify’s innovative technology and we look forward to working in
unison to continue to grow Nature’s Miracle as an industry leader
in the vertical farming agriculture business.”
Raymond Chang, Chief Executive Officer and
Chairman of the Board of Agrify, stated, “We believe the indoor
growing industry is in need of a major consolidation and we are
glad to have the opportunity to team up with one of the most
impressive and experienced teams in the industry. As a next step to
develop the vertical farming industry, it is a natural fit to join
forces with the team at Nature’s Miracle. Nature’s Miracle’s lead
lighting product is a premium offering in the vertical farming
industry and will serve as a critical component in order to advance
our extraction and ancillary integrated businesses. Similarly, we
developed our VFU, SaaS and AI technologies to be leveraged across
indoor farming of agriculture crops and by integrating with
Nature’s Miracle’s expansive collection of offerings, we are
optimistic the strength of the combined company’s share of vertical
farming will reveal a significant scale opportunity.”
