Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Verb Technology (VERB) executed a Subscription Agreement on 3-Aug-25 to raise approximately $558 million via a private placement of common stock at $9.51 per share and equal-priced pre-funded warrants (the “PIPE Financingâ€�). Closing is expected on or about 7-Aug-25, pending customary conditions.

The company plans to deploy the majority of the net proceeds to acquire Toncoin (TON): a subsidiary has already contracted to purchase $272.7 million of TON at $1.83 per token, conditional on the PIPE close. Supported by Kingsway Capital and Blockchain.com, management will rebrand as “TON Strategy Co.â€� and position TON as its primary treasury reserve asset while continuing existing business lines.

Roughly one-third of PIPE investors accepted lock-ups of six months or longer. VERB must file a resale registration statement within 30 days post-closing and maintain effectiveness for up to three years. Placement agent Cohen & Co. will earn a 5% cash and 2% equity fee on gross proceeds sourced through the agent.

On 1-Aug-25 the company redeemed all Series D preferred shares—including the 9% accrued return—in cash, eliminating that class from the capital structure and simplifying equity ahead of the financing.

Verb Technology (VERB) ha sottoscritto un Accordo di Sottoscrizione il 3 agosto 2025 per raccogliere circa 558 milioni di dollari tramite un collocamento privato di azioni ordinarie a 9,51 dollari per azione e warrant pre-finanziati al medesimo prezzo (il “Finanziamento PIPE�). La chiusura è prevista intorno al 7 agosto 2025, subordinata alle condizioni consuete.

L’azienda intende impiegare la maggior parte dei proventi netti per acquisire Toncoin (TON): una controllata ha già stipulato un contratto per acquistare 272,7 milioni di dollari di TON a 1,83 dollari per token, condizionato alla chiusura del PIPE. Supportata da Kingsway Capital e Blockchain.com, la direzione rinominerà la società in “TON Strategy Co.� e posizionerà TON come principale riserva di tesoreria, continuando nel contempo le linee di business esistenti.

Circa un terzo degli investitori PIPE ha accettato vincoli di lock-up di sei mesi o più. VERB dovrà depositare una dichiarazione di registrazione per la rivendita entro 30 giorni dalla chiusura e mantenerne l’efficacia fino a tre anni. L’agente di collocamento Cohen & Co. riceverà una commissione del 5% in contanti e del 2% in azioni sui proventi lordi ottenuti tramite l’agente.

Il 1° agosto 2025 la società ha riscattato in contanti tutte le azioni privilegiate di Serie D � inclusi i rendimenti maturati al 9% � eliminando tale categoria dalla struttura del capitale e semplificando l’equity prima del finanziamento.

El cierre se espera alrededor del 7 de agosto de 2025, sujeto a condiciones habituales.

La compañía planea destinar la mayor parte de los ingresos netos para adquirir Toncoin (TON): una subsidiaria ya ha contratado la compra de 272,7 millones de dólares en TON a 1,83 dólares por token, condicionado al cierre del PIPE. Con el apoyo de Kingsway Capital y Blockchain.com, la gerencia renombrará la empresa como “TON Strategy Co.� y posicionará a TON como su principal activo de reserva de tesorería, mientras continúa con las líneas de negocio existentes.

Alrededor de un tercio de los inversores PIPE aceptaron períodos de bloqueo de seis meses o más. VERB debe presentar una declaración de registro para la reventa dentro de los 30 días posteriores al cierre y mantener su vigencia hasta por tres años. El agente colocador Cohen & Co. cobrará una comisión del 5% en efectivo y 2% en acciones sobre los ingresos brutos obtenidos a través del agente.

El 1 de agosto de 2025, la compañía redimió en efectivo todas las acciones preferentes Serie D —incluidos los rendimientos acumulados del 9%� eliminando esa clase de la estructura de capital y simplificando el capital antes de la financiación.

Verb Technology (VERB) hat am 3. August 2025 eine Zeichnungsvereinbarung unterzeichnet, um rund 558 Millionen US-Dollar durch eine Privatplatzierung von Stammaktien zu je 9,51 US-Dollar und gleichpreisigen vorfinanzierten Warrants (die „PIPE-Finanzierung�) zu beschaffen. Der Abschluss wird voraussichtlich um den 7. August 2025 erfolgen, vorbehaltlich üblicher Bedingungen.

Das Unternehmen plant, den Großteil der Nettoerlöse für den Erwerb von Toncoin (TON) einzusetzen: Eine Tochtergesellschaft hat bereits einen Vertrag über den Kauf von TON im Wert von 272,7 Millionen US-Dollar zu 1,83 US-Dollar pro Token abgeschlossen, vorbehaltlich des PIPE-Abschlusses. Unterstützt von Kingsway Capital und Blockchain.com wird das Management die Umbenennung in „TON Strategy Co.� vornehmen und TON als primären Treasury-Reservewert positionieren, während die bestehenden Geschäftsbereiche fortgeführt werden.

Ungefähr ein Drittel der PIPE-Investoren akzeptierten Sperrfristen von sechs Monaten oder länger. VERB muss innerhalb von 30 Tagen nach Abschluss eine Wiederverkaufsregistrierung einreichen und deren Wirksamkeit bis zu drei Jahre aufrechterhalten. Der Platzierungsagent Cohen & Co. erhält eine Gebühr von 5 % in bar und 2 % in Aktien auf die Bruttoerlöse, die über den Agenten erzielt werden.

Am 1. August 2025 hat das Unternehmen alle Vorzugsaktien der Serie D � einschließlich der aufgelaufenen 9 % Rendite � in bar zurückgekauft, wodurch diese Aktienklasse aus der Kapitalstruktur entfernt und das Eigenkapital vor der Finanzierung vereinfacht wurde.

Positive
  • $558 million capital infusion significantly strengthens liquidity.
  • Redemption of 9% Series D preferred removes costly security and simplifies capital structure.
  • Approximately one-third of PIPE investors accepted â‰�6-month lock-ups, easing near-term selling pressure.
Negative
  • Large issuance of shares and pre-funded warrants introduces substantial dilution.
  • Proceeds earmarked for Toncoin expose the balance sheet to crypto-market volatility and regulatory risk.
  • Placement agent compensation of 5% cash + 2% equity adds to transaction costs.

Insights

TL;DR: Massive capital raise funds crypto-focused treasury shift; dilution balanced by balance-sheet expansion.

The $558 million PIPE dwarfs VERB’s historical market value, materially expanding cash resources but issuing a large volume of new shares/warrants. At $9.51, pricing clarity is provided, and one-third of investors agreed to six-month lock-ups, tempering immediate selling pressure. Redemption of the 9% Series D preferred removes an expensive layer of capital and improves EPS optics. However, directing proceeds into Toncoin converts equity capital into a volatile, non-cash-flow asset and fundamentally changes the company’s risk profile. Registration obligations and agent fees (5% cash, 2% equity) are standard. Overall, impact is mixed: stronger liquidity versus potential dilution and crypto exposure.

TL;DR: Strategy pivots from SaaS to crypto treasury—execution and market-risk surge.

Committing >$270 million initially—and likely more—to Toncoin concentrates treasury value in a single digital asset lacking long trading history and subject to regulatory uncertainty. Shareholders face elevated price volatility and possible impairment. The PIPE’s size relative to legacy operations suggests significant dilution; exact share count is undisclosed. Lock-ups cover only a fraction of investors, and warrants add further overhang. Redemption of Series D preferred is positive, but the 5% cash plus 2% equity placement fee is costly. If crypto markets weaken, equity value could erode quickly. I view the disclosure as modestly negative from a risk-adjusted perspective.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On August 3, 2025, Verb Technology Company, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with certain institutional investors (the “PIPE Subscribers”) in an aggregate amount of approximately $558 million, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue, and the PIPE Subscribers agreed to purchase, shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, (the “Common Stock”), at a purchase price of $9.51 per share (and pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock at a purchase price per warrant of $9.5099) (the “Pre-Funded Warrants” and such offering, the “PIPE Financing”). The shares of Common Stock and Pre-Funded Warrants will be issued in a private placement in reliance upon an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”) and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws.

 

The net proceeds from the PIPE Financing are intended to be used by the Company to purchase Toncoin (“TON”), the native cryptocurrency of The Open Network blockchain, and for working capital and general corporate purposes. The PIPE Financing is expected to close on or about August 7, 2025.

 

On July 31, 2025, Verb Subsidiary 3, Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a purchase agreement to purchase TON in the aggregate amount of approximately $272.7 million at a purchase price of $1.83 per TON. The closing of the TON purchase is contingent upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the closing of the PIPE Financing, and customary conditions as set forth therein.

 

The closing of the PIPE Financing is contingent upon the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, the Company has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), within thirty (30) calendar days after the closing of the PIPE Financing, a registration statement registering the resale of the shares of Common Stock and any shares issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants (the “Registrable Securities”). The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable after filing, but no later than the fifteenth (15th) business day (or 60th business day if the SEC notifies the Company that it will review the registration statement) following the filing of such resale registration statement. The Company is also obligated to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement for a period ending on the earlier of (A) the date the PIPE Subscriber ceases to hold any Registrable Securities, (B) the date all Registrable Securities held by the PIPE Subscriber may be sold without restriction under Rule 144, and (C) three years from the effective date of the registration statement. Additionally, approximately one-third of the investors have agreed to lock-up restrictions with the Company whereby they will not sell or transfer the Company’s securities for six or more months from the signing of the subscription agreement, subject to customary exceptions.

 

The Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect upon the earliest to occur of (1) the mutual written agreement of the respective parties to terminate such agreement; (2) if any of the conditions to closing are not satisfied or capable of being satisfied on or prior to the closing and, as a result, the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreement will not be or are not consummated at closing; and (3) at the election of the PIPE Subscribers, on or after August 15, 2025.

 

The form of Subscription Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Current Report”), and the foregoing description thereof is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Subscription Agreement and the terms of which are incorporated by reference herein.

 

Cohen & Company Securities, LLC, acting through its Cohen & Company Capital Markets division (“Placement Agent”), is acting as placement agent in connection with the PIPE Financing. The Company has agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash placement fee equal to 5.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the PIPE Financing, excluding any gross proceeds from investors introduced directly by the Company, and an equity fee consisting of shares of Common Stock equal to 2.0% of the gross proceeds of the PIPE Financing, also excluding any gross proceeds from such investors. The Company has also agreed to reimburse certain reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of the Placement Agent in connection with the PIPE Offering, including but not limited to the reasonable fees and disbursements of outside attorneys, up to a maximum of $150,000.

 

 

 

 

Item 7.01. Regulation FD.

 

On August 4, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the PIPE Offering. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, and a copy of the investor presentation used with investors in the PIPE Financing is attached as Exhibit 99.2 hereto.

 

With support from Kingsway Capital and Blockchain.com, the Company plans to rebrand as TON Strategy Co. and dedicate the majority of the proceeds to acquiring and holding Toncoin as its primary treasury reserve asset. The new business line will focus on building a significant on-chain Toncoin treasury, emphasizing transparency, compliance, and verification of holdings. Additional updates regarding the acquisition of Toncoin, treasury growth, and governance measures are expected in the coming weeks. The Company’s existing business operations will continue and are expected to continue to expand.

 

The information in this Item 7.01 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and in Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 furnished herewith, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On August 1, 2025, the Company redeemed in full all outstanding shares of its Series D Non-Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”). The redemption was effected pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Certificate of Designation of the Series D Preferred Stock, and the Company paid an aggregate cash amount equal to the applicable Series D Preferred Liquidation Amount (the original issue price plus any accrued but unpaid 9% annual preferred return) for all shares redeemed. Following this redemption, no shares of Series D Preferred Stock remain outstanding.

 

The Series D Preferred Stock, originally issued on April 22, 2025, to Streeterville Capital, LLC, accrued a 9% annual preferred return and did not carry voting rights. The redemption of the Series D Preferred Stock was funded from the Company’s available cash resources and is part of the Company’s ongoing efforts to optimize its capital structure in connection with the PIPE Financing and TON treasury strategy.
