DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES and NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - 06/24/09) - KIT digital, Inc. (OTC.BB:KDGL - News), a leading global provider of on-demand software solutions for managing and monetizing IP-based video assets, has filed a Form S-1 registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for a proposed underwritten public offering of the company's common stock. The company expects to effectuate its listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market concurrently with this offering.
KIT Media Ltd., the company's largest single stockholder, controlled by KIT digital's chairman and CEO, Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, intends to purchase at least $3.35 million of common stock in this offering, at the same price and terms as other investors in the offering. KIT digital President Gavin Campion is also an investor in KIT Media, as are several members of the company's board of directors.
The company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering primarily to finance accretive acquisitions or investments in competitive businesses, products and technologies as a part of its growth strategy. The company also intends to use a portion of the proceeds to repay a $1.5 million outstanding senior secured term loan, as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes, including a small amount -- less than $1.0 million -- to potentially pre-settle future equity earn-out payments to shareholders of previously acquired companies.
The company plans to begin selling the offering during the second half of July and close the offering in the first half of August, with the actual time frame dependent upon the SEC review of the registration statement. Further information regarding the registration statement is available via the SEC's website at www.sec.gov, under the company's CIK number: 0001076700.
