HELIOS AND MATHESON ANALYTICS INC. (NASDAQ:HMNY) Files An 8-K Entry into a Material Definitive AgreementItem 1.01.Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 18, 2018, Helios and Matheson Analytics Inc. (the “Company” or “us” or “we”) entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Canaccord Genuity LLC under which we may offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $150,000,000 from time to time through Canaccord Genuity LLC, acting as sales agent (the “Sales Agent”). The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to increase the Company’s ownership stake in MoviePass Inc., its majority-owned subsidiary (“MoviePass”), or to support the operations of MoviePass or MoviePass Ventures, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company; to satisfy a portion or all of any amounts payable in connection with the convertible notes issued on November 7, 2017 and January 23, 2018, to the extent that they remain outstanding; and for general corporate purposes and transaction expenses. The proceeds may also be used for acquisitions.
Sales of our common stock through the Sales Agent, if any, will be made by any method that is deemed an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including sales made directly on the Nasdaq Capital Market, or any other existing trading market for our common stock or to or through a market marker. The Sales Agent may also sell our common stock by any other method permitted by law, including in privately negotiated transactions. The Sales Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its sales and trading practices, to solicit offers to purchase the common stock under the terms and subject to the condition set forth in the Sales Agreement. We will pay the Sales Agent commissions, in cash, for its services in acting as agent in the sale of our common stock. The Sales Agent will be entitled to compensation at a fixed commission rate of 5.0% of the gross sales price per share sold.
We are not obligated to make any sales of our common stock under the Sales Agreement and no assurance can be given that we will sell any shares under the Sales Agreement, or if we do, as to the price or amount of shares that we will sell, or the dates on which any such sales will take place. The Sales Agreement will terminate automatically upon the sale of all of our common stock subject to the Sales Agreement or as otherwise permitted therein. We and the Sales Agent may each terminate the Sales Agreement at any time upon 10 days’ prior written notice.
