Common Stock

 

In May 2017, the Company completed a registered direct offering whereby 1 million shares of the Company’s common stock were sold at $2.30 per share to a single institutional investor. Concurrently the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 2 million shares of its common stock to this investor, with an exercise price of $5.00 per share and a one year term. The Company subsequently registered the shares of common stock underlying these warrants in a registration statement dated June 30, 2017. As a result of the common stock sale, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $2.0 million. One-third of the net proceeds were used to pay down the debt with Opus in accordance with the Opus credit agreement.

 

Preferred Stock

 

In June 2017, the Company completed a public preferred stock offering whereby 294,698 shares of its Preferred Stock were sold at $25.00 per share. As a result of this sale, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $6.2 million. One-third of the net proceeds were used to pay down the debt with Opus in accordance with the credit agreement. Dividends on the Preferred Stock of $2.75 annually per share are cumulative from the date of issue and are payable each month when, as and if declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. As of June 30, 2017, the Board of Directors has declared monthly dividends on the Preferred Stock payable through August, 2017.

 

Commencing on or after November 4, 2020, the Company may redeem, at its option, the Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at a cash redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends to, but not including the redemption date. The Preferred Stock has no stated maturity, is not subject to any sinking fund or other mandatory redemption, and is not convertible into or exchangeable for any of the Company’s other securities. Holders of the Preferred Stock have no voting rights except for limited voting rights if dividends payable on the Preferred Stock are in arrears for eighteen or more consecutive or non-consecutive monthly dividend periods. If the Company were to liquidate, dissolve or wind up, the holders of the Preferred Stock will have the right to receive $25.00 per share, plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends to, but not including, the date of payment, before any payment is made to the holders of the common stock. The Preferred Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the trading symbol “MTBCP.”
