DALLAS, March 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- CVSL Inc. [NYSE MKT: CVSL] today announced the closing of a previously announced underwritten public offering of 6,667,000 shares of its common stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 6,667,000 shares of its common stock at a combined offering price of $3.00. The warrants have a per share exercise price of $3.75, are exercisable immediately and will expire five years from the date of issuance.
CVSL has granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,000,050 shares of common stock and/or warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,000,050 shares of common stock to cover additional over-allotments, if any.
The gross proceeds to the Company, including the underwriters' partial exercise of their over-allotment option, were approximately $20,000,000 before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. Assuming the exercise of all 6,667,000 warrants at the exercise price of $3.75 each, and assuming the Company maintains the conditions necessary for a cash exercise, the total additional gross aggregate proceeds to CVSL would be $25,001,250. However, there can be no assurance that any warrants will be exercised.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering for the acquisition of other businesses that it believes are synergistic with its current businesses, including up to $5,515,731 to acquire Kleeneze Limited, and for general working capital purposes, including ongoing operations, expansion of the business and further research and development.
Aegis Capital Corp. acted as sole book-running manager for the offering.
Feltl and Company acted as co-lead manager.
