Newton Golf Secures $5.0 Million Revolving Credit Facility and Completes Exchange of $2.3 Million of Convertible Notes into Preferred Equity

Key Terms

senior secured revolving credit facility financial

A senior secured revolving credit facility is a multi‑use bank lending line that a company can draw, repay and redraw as needed, backed by specific assets and ranked first in repayment order if the company defaults. Think of it like a collateralized credit card that gives flexible short‑term cash while lenders hold priority to recover their money; investors watch it because it affects a company’s liquidity, borrowing cost, and who gets paid first in financial distress.

convertible promissory notes financial

A convertible promissory note is a loan a company takes that can later be turned into shares instead of being paid back in cash; think of lending money now in exchange for a voucher that can become ownership later. Investors care because it mixes credit risk and potential ownership upside—it can protect lenders if a company struggles while also diluting existing shareholders when converted, affecting future share value and investor returns.

series a convertible preferred stock financial

Series A convertible preferred stock is a class of shares sold in an early funding round that gives investors a mix of protection and upside: it pays a priority claim over common shares if the company is sold or closes, but can be converted into ordinary shares to share in future growth. Think of it like a hybrid between a safer stake and a ticket to ownership; it matters to investors because it affects who controls the company, how future gains are split, and how much their investment is protected from downside.

conversion price financial

The conversion price is the fixed price at which a convertible security, like a bond or preferred stock, can be exchanged for shares of common stock. It acts like a set rate that determines how many shares an investor can receive if they choose to convert their investment. This helps investors understand the value and potential benefits of converting their securities into company shares.

nasdaq's minimum stockholders' equity requirement regulatory

A Nasdaq minimum stockholders' equity requirement is a rule that a company must have at least a certain amount of net worth (total assets minus total liabilities) to be listed or stay listed on the Nasdaq stock market. Think of it like a safety threshold a lender might set to show a borrower has enough cushion; for investors it signals a basic level of financial stability and is used by exchanges to screen companies for listing and continued eligibility.

CAMARILLO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Newton Golf Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: NWTG), a technology-forward golf equipment company focused on physics-driven engineering, today announced that it has (i) entered into a $5.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility and (ii) completed the exchange of approximately $2.3 million of outstanding convertible promissory notes, including accrued interest, for Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

The revolving credit facility provides for borrowings of up to $5.0 million, subject to the terms and conditions of the loan agreement, and matures on July 1, 2028. Proceeds from the credit facility will be used for working capital, capital expenditures, growth initiatives and other general corporate purposes.

Under the exchange agreements, holders of outstanding convertible promissory notes exchanged approximately $2.3 million of notes, including accrued interest, for an aggregate of 24,092.61 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.00 per share, subject to the terms and limitations set forth in the certificate of designation. The exchange reduces outstanding indebtedness and further strengthens the company's balance sheet through the conversion of debt into equity.

“These transactions are an important step in strengthening Newton Golf’s financial position and supporting our continued execution,” said Akinobu Yorihiro, Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technology Officer of Newton Golf. “The exchange of convertible notes into Series A Preferred Stock helps reduce outstanding debt and improves our capital structure, while the revolving credit facility provides access to greater financial flexibility as we continue increasing market awareness and adoption for our Newton Motion shafts.”

This financing comes as Newton Golf continues to scale from a foundation of proprietary engineering, growing professional validation and expanding adoption within elite club-fitting channels. In 2025, Newton Golf ranked as the No. 1 selling shaft brand for both drivers and fairway woods at Club Champion, one of the world’s largest professional club-fitting retailers, reinforcing the brand’s emerging position as a trusted performance platform among golfers, fitters and industry partners.

The company also recently reported record 2025 net sales growth of 136%, appointed Gregg Hemphill to its board of directors, completed an exclusive distribution agreement with VOICE CADDIE in South Korea, one of the world’s largest premium golf equipment markets, and began structured product testing and evaluation programs with leading global golf equipment manufacturers. In addition, Newton Golf introduced new shaft configurations at the 2026 PGA Show, extending the Newton Motion platform across fairway wood and hybrid categories and supporting a broader, system-based fitting approach.

The company expects the financing transactions to materially improve stockholders' equity and support its ongoing efforts to satisfy Nasdaq's minimum stockholders' equity requirement. Management believes these financing transactions, together with the company's product platform expansion, international distribution growth, ongoing OEM evaluation programs and strengthening brand equity, support the company's long-term growth strategy and path toward regaining compliance within the Nasdaq review period.

Additional details regarding the transactions are included in the company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
