Mynaric AG (NASDAQ:MYNA) has received notice from its German restructuring expert indicating future capital requirements. The company is negotiating with its primary lender to extend $16.5 million in bridge loans due December 30, 2024, and secure additional funding for production and operations.
The lender's support is conditional on initiating financial reorganization under the German StaRUG act. Management believes it's likely they will agree on additional funding and apply for StaRUG proceedings, which could result in shareholders losing part or all of their investment. The company must make provisions for contingent liabilities for all outstanding loans, leading to full consumption of share capital.
Due to these developments, Mynaric has postponed its December 11, 2024 annual general meeting and will convene an extraordinary general meeting.
Mynaric AG (NASDAQ:MYNA) has secured an additional USD 11 million bridge loan from U.S.-based lenders, supplementing their existing USD 95 million loan and October's USD 5.5 million bridge loan.

Additionally, Mynaric expects to sign a production increase incentive agreement worth up to USD 9 million with an undisclosed customer, including an initial payment of USD 4.3 million. The company currently holds EUR 3.8 million in cash and continues seeking additional funding for operational needs.

Availability is subject to conditions, including a favorable liquidity plan from an independent restructuring expert.
Additionally, Mynaric received a USD 5.5 million milestone payment for manufacturing readiness from a U.S.-based customer. This payment, received on September 26, 2024, was a condition for the loan amendment and will support production of optical communications terminals.
As of October 1, 2024, Mynaric had EUR 7.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, which will be used for operational and working capital needs. The company expects to draw the full bridge loan amount to meet immediate working capital requirements and expenses for a restructuring expert opinion.
