NextNRG, Inc. (NASDAQ:NXXT), a $222 million market cap company currently trading at $1.77 per share, announced Thursday that it has entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with its Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman, Michael D. Farkas. According to a statement based on a press release, the agreement was executed on September 18, 2025. InvestingPro analysis indicates the company operates with moderate debt levels but faces challenges with short-term liquidity.

Under the terms of the agreement, NextNRG issued 1,000,000 restricted shares of its common stock to Mr. Farkas at a price of $1.67 per share. The total value of the shares, $1,670,000, was paid by Mr. Farkas through the cancellation and discharge of outstanding indebtedness owed by the company to him. This debt was previously established under promissory notes dated May 5, May 9, May 19, May 20, and June 10, 2025. While the stock has shown strong returns over the past month, it remains significantly below its 52-week high of $4.34.

The company stated that the issuance of the common stock was made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The transaction did not involve a public offering and was conducted as a private transaction. NextNRG also noted that shareholder approval was not required for this transaction, as the purchase price matched the consolidated closing bid price of the company’s common stock on the date of issuance.

NextNRG’s common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol NXXT. The company is incorporated in Delaware and is classified under retail-auto dealers and gasoline stations.
