As previously disclosed, on November 15, 2023, WaveDancer, Inc. (“WaveDancer” or “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, FFN Merger Sub, Inc. (“FFN”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1, dated as of January 12, 2024, and that certain Amendment No. 2, dated as of June 17, 2024, “Merger Agreement”) with Firefly Neuroscience, Inc. (“Firefly”). In accordance with the Merger Agreement, FFN merged with and into Firefly, with Firefly surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of WaveDancer. On August 12, 2024, (i) pursuant to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of WaveDancer, Inc., WaveDancer changed its name to Firefly Neuroscience, Inc., and (ii) pursuant to an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation Firefly, Firefly changed its name to Firefly Neuroscience 2023, Inc. and (iii) Firefly and FFN filed the Certificate of Merger with the State of Delaware (the “Merger”). On August 12, 2024, the Merger closed (the “Closing” and such date, the “Closing Date”).

 

At the effective time of the Merger, each holder of outstanding shares of Firefly’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Firefly Common Stock”) received the number of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “New Firefly Common Stock”) equal to the number of shares of Firefly Common Stock such stockholders held multiplied by the exchange ratio, or an aggregate of 7,870,251 shares of WaveDancer common stock at closing using an exchange ratio (the “Exchange Ratio”) of 0.1040. Additionally, upon at the effective time of the Merger: (i) each outstanding option to purchase Firefly Common Stock that was not exercised prior to the Closing was assumed by the Company subject to certain terms contained in the Merger Agreement and became an option to purchase shares of New Firefly Common Stock, subject to adjustment to give effect to the Exchange Ratio, (ii) each outstanding Firefly restricted share unit outstanding immediately prior to the Closing was accelerated and vested pursuant to the terms thereof, and (iii) each outstanding warrant to purchase shares of Firefly Common Stock that was not exercised prior to the Closing was assumed by the Company, subject to certain terms contained in the Merger Agreement. The board of directors of Firefly after the Merger consists of four members (the “Board”).

 

Following the Closing, there are 7,870,251 shares of New Firefly Common Stock outstanding, with former Firefly stockholders owning approximately 92% and former WaveDancer stockholders owning 8% of the Company’s outstanding securities.

 

The foregoing description of the Merger is a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-4, as amended, and incorporated herein by reference.

 

 

As previously reported, on March 14, 2024, WaveDancer held a special meeting of WaveDancer’s stockholders, at which meeting WaveDancer’s stockholders approved an amendment (the “Reverse Stock Split Amendment”) to WaveDancer’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of all of the issued and outstanding shares of WaveDancer’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “WaveDancer Common Stock”), at a ratio in the range of 1-for-1.5 to 1-for-20, with the exact ratio and timing to be determined by WaveDancer’s board of directors (the “WaveDancer Board”) in its discretion and included in a public announcement (the “Reverse Stock Split”). Following the Annual Meeting, on May 28, 2024, the WaveDancer Board determined to effect the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of 1-for-3 and approved the corresponding final form of the Reverse Stock Split Amendment. On August 12, 2024, WaveDancer filed the Reverse Stock Split Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect the Reverse Stock Split, effective as of 12:01 p.m. (New York time) on August 12, 2024.

 

 

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every three (3) shares of issued and outstanding WaveDancer Common Stock were automatically combined into one (1) issued and outstanding share of WaveDancer Common Stock, without any change in the par value per share or the number of authorized shares of common stock. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. All fractional shares issuable to WaveDancer’s stockholders as a result of the Reverse Stock Split were aggregated and rounded up to the nearest whole share. The Reverse Stock Split reduced the number of shares of WaveDancer’s Common Stock outstanding from 2,013,180 shares to approximately 671,060. Following the Closing, there are 7,870,251 shares of New Firefly Common Stock outstanding, on a Reverse Stock Split-adjusted basis.

 

Following the Closing, the New Firefly Common Stock will begin trading on a Reverse Stock Split-adjusted basis on the Nasdaq Capital Market on August 13, 2024, under the symbol “AIFF.” The new CUSIP number for the New Firefly Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split is 317970101.

 

Unless noted otherwise, all post-Merger share and per-share information presented in this Current Report on Form 8-K reflects the Reverse Stock Split of our outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock, however, certain of documents and information filed herewith or incorporated by reference into this Current Report on Form 8-K, do not give effect to the Reverse Stock Split.

 

 

As previously reported, on July 26, 2024, Firefly entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional investors, pursuant to which Firefly agreed to issue and sell (i) 2,639,517 shares (the “PIPE Shares”) of Firefly Common Stock or, to the extent that such purchase of PIPE Shares would result in the investors, together with their affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of the Company immediately following the consummation of the Merger, pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase such PIPE Shares in excess of 4.99% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, and (ii) warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase up to 2,639,517 shares of Firefly Common Stock in a private placement (the “Private Placement”). The purchase price of each PIPE Share and accompanying Warrant was $1.326 and the purchase price of each Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying Warrant was $1.3257. The Private Placement closed on August 12, 2024, substantially contemporaneous with the consummation of the Merger. The aggregate gross proceeds from the transaction were approximately $3.5 million, before deducting estimated offering expenses payable by the Company.

 

None of the issuances of the PIPE Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Warrants, or the shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants (collectively, the “Warrant Shares”) were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws. The PIPE Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares have been and will be, as applicable, issued in reliance on the exemptions from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The investors that entered into to a Purchase Agreement represented that they accredited investors, as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase Agreement, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the forms of Purchase Agreement, Pre-Funded Warrant and Warrant, which were filed as Exhibits 10.1, 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on July 29, 2024, and incorporated herein by reference.’

 

 

On November 15, 2023, WaveDancer entered into the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Tellenger Agreement”) with Wavetop Solutions, Inc. and Tellenger, Inc. The Tellenger Agreement provides that Wavetop will purchase from WaveDancer all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of Tellenger prior to the merger, for an aggregate purchase price of $1.5 million, plus the assumption of the employment agreements that WaveDancer was obligated under with G. James Benoit, Jr., Gwen Pal and Stan Reese, which includes provisions to pay severance under certain circumstances. The purchase price will be paid in full in cash at the closing less the outstanding balance of WaveDancer’s $500,000 credit facility with Summit Commercial Bank, N.A (“SCB”). The Tellenger Sale Transaction is expected to close simultaneous with, or immediately after, the Closing. The Tellenger Agreement contains customary limited representations and warranties of the parties, events of default and termination provisions.

 

 

 

 

In connection with the Merger, on the Closing Date, the Company entered into indemnification agreements (each, an “Indemnification Agreement” and collectively, the “Indemnification Agreements”) with each of its directors and executive officers. The Indemnification Agreements provide for indemnification and advancement by the Company of certain expenses and costs relating to claims, suits, or proceedings arising from service to the Company or, at its request, service to other entities to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

On August 8, 2024, WaveDancer received a letter from the Staff (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “Letter”) indicating that in WaveDancer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 14, 2024, WaveDancer reported stockholders’ equity of $1,708,520 for the period ended March 31, 2024, which does not comply with Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement”). As previously reported, in a decision dated November 14, 2023, a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) confirmed that WaveDancer had regained compliance with the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement. In the decision, the Panel imposed a Mandatory Panel Monitor for a period of one year or until November 14, 2024, which would require the Staff to issue a Delist Determination Letter in the event that WaveDancer failed to maintain compliance with the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Rule (the “Panel Monitor”). Due to the Panel Monitor, WaveDancer is not eligible to submit a plan to the Staff to request an extension of up to 180 calendar days in which to regain compliance with the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement and as a result, the Staff has determined to delist WaveDancer’s securities from Nasdaq. Accordingly, unless WaveDancer requests an appeal of this determination by August 15, 2024, WaveDancer’s securities will be scheduled for delisting from Nasdaq and will be suspended at the opening of business on August 19, 2024.

 

The Company believes that following the consummation of the Merger and following the Closing, it will satisfy the Minimum Stockholder’s Equity Requirement.
