Blazing Star Merger Sub completes Walgreens debt tender offer
Abpro Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:ABP), a biotechnology company specializing in biological products with a market capitalization of $169.66 million, has entered into an amendment with investment firm Yorkville to adjust the terms of a convertible promissory note, as per a recent SEC filing. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a GREAT financial health score, though it operates with a moderate level of debt.
On Monday, the company and Yorkville agreed to amend the definition of "Conversion Price" in the note to correct an error. The revised terms set the "Conversion Price" as the lower of $11.50 per share or 94% of the lowest daily volume-weighted average price (VWAP) in the five trading days preceding the conversion date. Additionally, the fixed price may adjust downward based on the VWAP in the three days prior to the 20th trading day following the issuance date, if it is lower than the initial fixed price. The floor price, however, will remain unchanged. Currently trading at $5.57, the stock has shown significant return over the last week, as revealed by InvestingPro analysis.
This convertible note was initially issued on November 13, 2024, with a principal amount of $3 million, from which Abpro Holdings received net proceeds of $2.755 million. The amendment does not change any other terms of the note. The company maintains a healthy current ratio of 3.21, indicating strong ability to meet its short-term obligations.
The convertible note is a financial instrument that allows Yorkville to convert the outstanding balance into shares of Abpro Holdings at the specified conversion price. Such financial agreements are common among companies seeking flexible financing options.

The restatement will increase accrued expenses, total liabilities, and accumulated deficit by approximately $3.3 million for each affected period. Additionally, Abpro Holdings faces a potential delisting from Nasdaq due to non-compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, as its stock has been below the $1.00 minimum for 30 consecutive business days.
