\nNUBURU, Inc. (NYSE American: BURU), a next-generation dual-use Defense & Security integrated platform company, today announced the closing of its previously announced best-efforts public offering, generating gross proceeds of approximately $38.0 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses.<\/p>\n
\nThe offering consisted of an aggregate of 244,372,984 shares of common stock and\/or pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of common stock, together with accompanying shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The combined public offering price was $0.1555 per share of common stock and accompanying Series B Preferred Stock, or $0.1554 per pre-funded warrant and accompanying Series B Preferred Stock, reflecting the $0.0001 exercise price of each pre-funded warrant. The $0.1555 combined public offering price represented approximately a 30% premium to the $0.1199 closing price of NUBURU common stock on July 15, 2026. The offering was led by a New York-based single-family office, with participation from other well-known accredited investors and family offices.<\/p>\n
\nJoseph Gunnar & Co., LLC acted as the exclusive placement agent for the offering.<\/p>\n
\nBecause NUBURU\u2019s stock traded below $0.10 during the trading day, it received notice from NYSE American indicating that it was in violation of Section 1003(f)(v) of the NYSE American Company Guide and that NYSE American would commence proceedings to delist the common stock. NUBURU intends to appeal this decision and implement a reverse stock split to regain compliance, for which it has already obtained stockholder approval.<\/p>\n
