INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 6-K REPORT 

 

On December 16, 2024, WEBUY GLOBAL LTD (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional investors named thereto (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell, in a registered direct offering (the “Registered Direct Offering”): (i) 5,372,792 shares of Class A ordinary shares (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”) of the Company, par value $0.000000385 per share (the “Shares”), at a purchase price of $0.1756 per share; and (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 15,640,447 Class A Ordinary Shares (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) at a purchase price of $$0.1755 to the purchase price for Shares, less the exercise price of $0.0001 per share.

 

The Registered Direct Offering closed on December 17, 2024. The Company received approximately $3.7 million in gross proceeds from the Registered Direct Offering, before deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Registered Direct Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

The Pre-Funded Warrants were sold to the Purchasers, whose purchase of the Shares in the Registered Direct Offering would otherwise have resulted in the Purchasers, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 9.99% of the outstanding share capital of the Company following the consummation of the Registered Direct Offering. Each Pre-Funded Warrant represents the right to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable immediately and may be exercised at any time until the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full (subject to the beneficial ownership limitation described above).

 

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company, other obligations of the parties, and termination provisions. Additionally, each of the directors and executive officers of the Company entered into a lock-up agreement, pursuant to which they agreed not to sell or transfer any of the Company securities which they hold, subject to certain customary exceptions, during the ninety (90)-day period following the closing of the Registered Direct Offering.

 

In addition, the Company agreed that for a period of ninety (90) days from the closing date of the Registered Direct Offering, it will not, including but not limited to,: (i) issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of capital stock or equivalent securities; or (ii) file or caused to be filed any registration statement relating to the offering of any shares of capital stock of the Company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company, except the filing of a Form S-8 registration statement covering the employee stock option plan. In addition, the Company agreed that it will not conduct any sales of Class A Ordinary Shares or equivalent securities involving a variable rate transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) for a period of thirty (30) days from the closing date of the Registered Direct Offering, subject to certain exceptions as described in the Purchase Agreement.

 

The Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Pre-funded Warrants were offered by the Company pursuant to a registration statement on Form F-3 (File No.333-283356) (the “Registration Statement”), previously filed and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 3, 2024, the base prospectus filed as part of the Registration Statement, and the prospectus supplement dated December 16, 2024 (the “Prospectus Supplement”).

 

On December 16, 2024, the Company entered into a placement agency agreement (the “Placement Agency Agreement”) with D. Boral Capital LLC (“DBC” or the “Placement Agent”), pursuant to which the Company engaged DBC as the exclusive placement agent in connection with the Registered Direct Offering. The Placement Agent agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of the Shares and the Pre-Funded Warrants. In addition, under the Placement Agency Agreement the Company agreed to pay the Placement Agent a placement agent fee in cash equal to seven percent (7.0%) of the aggregate gross proceeds raised from the sale. The Company also agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent at closing for legal and other expenses incurred by them in connection with the Registered Direct Offering in an amount not to exceed $180,000. Furthermore, the Placement Agent was granted a right of first refusal for a period of six (6) months from the closing date of the Registered Direct Offering.

Forward-Looking Statements:

 

This Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other Federal securities laws. For example, the Company is using forward-looking statements when it discusses the closing of the Registered Direct Offering. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Report are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on the Company’s current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of its business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of the Company’s control. The Company’s actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include the risks and uncertainties described in the Company’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Commission on April 15, 2024, and the Company’s other filings with the Commission. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.
