and $1.7m private placement to bolster balance
sheet
DDC Enterprise, Ltd., (NYSEAM: DDC) (“DayDayCook,” “DDC,” or the
“Company”), a leading multi-brand Asian consumer food company, is
pleased to announce that the Company has recapitalized its debt
obligations and achieved additional funding through the sale of
equity in a private placement.
DDC recently completed a transaction with ten creditors to
retire $4,800,000 USD of outstanding principal and interest which
was converted into Class A Ordinary shares. Additionally, four
investors participated in a private placement to purchase
approximately $1,700,000 USD of Class A Ordinary shares. The
transactions resulted in the issuance of approximately 9,500,000
Class A Ordinary shares.
“DDC is very excited about the support demonstrated from some of
our creditors that were enthusiastic about the opportunity to
invest in the Company,” said Norma Chu, Chief Executive Officer.
“Converting the loans and gaining additional financial support have
a meaningful impact on our balance sheet and provide the Company
with cash to grow our brands and fund expanded distribution
channels.”
The Company expects to use the proceeds from the financing for
working capital and other corporate purposes. The offer and sale of
the Class A Ordinary shares were made in a transaction not
involving a public offering and the securities have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may
not be reoffered or resold except pursuant to an effective
registration statement or an applicable exemption from the
registration requirements. The Company reported on a Form 6-K filed
with the SEC on June 21, 2024, that it had entered into agreements
with the creditors and investors and that the transactions were
subject to closing conditions. Those conditions have now been
satisfied.
