Super Vision International, Inc. (NASDAQ:SUPVA) (Class A Common), a
world leader in solid-state LED and fiber optic lighting systems and
controls used in commercial, architectural, signage, swimming pool and
retail lighting applications, today announced that it closed a private
placement of Class A common stock and warrants led by a group of
institutional investors, for gross proceeds of $9.0 million. The net
proceeds will be used to reduce Super Vision’s
liabilities and strengthen its balance sheet, for general working
capital and to fund the Company's new strategic plan to expand its
platform of products to meet the increasing demand for LED lighting
systems.
Mike Bauer, President and CEO of Super Vision, stated, “Over
the course of the last eleven months we have been working very hard to
eliminate the legacy issues that have burdened the Company and we have
created a dynamic plan to capitalize on the growing demand for white
light LED lighting systems for general lighting applications. However,
given the Company’s financial resources, an
infusion of capital was required in order to fully execute our plan and
position the Company for accelerated growth.”
Mr. Bauer continued, “We have a very clear
vision for the Company. The details of our plan will be unveiled to the
market over the next several months and we feel that these efforts will
put the Company in a leadership position in several exciting new
applications for LED lighting. These funds will also give us the
resources to expand our research and development/intellectual property
efforts and continue to build on the 20 issued patents we currently hold.”
Gross proceeds of approximately $9.0 million resulted from the sale of
approximately 40,360 units at a price of $223.00 per unit, each unit
consisting of 100 shares of Class A common stock, a warrant to purchase
60 shares of Class A common stock exercisable at $2.23 per share
expiring 5 years from the date of issuance and a second warrant to
purchase 15 shares of Class A common stock exercisable at $3.00 per
share expiring 5 years from the date of issuance.
