Frequently Asked Questions
What is an 'at-the-market' offering?
An 'at-the-market' (ATM) offering allows a company to sell its shares gradually over time directly into the existing stock market at prevailing market prices, rather than through a traditional fixed-price secondary offering. This provides flexibility for the company to raise capital as needed.
Why is Credo conducting an at-the-market offering?
Companies typically use ATM offerings to raise capital opportunistically to fund growth, acquisitions, R&D, manage debt, or for general corporate purposes, without causing significant disruption to the stock price. The specific use of funds for Credo is not detailed in this filing but is likely one of these reasons.
How many shares will be sold and at what price?
The agreement allows for the sale of ordinary shares up to an aggregate offering price of $750 million. The exact number of shares to be sold and the price at which they will be sold will depend on market conditions and the ongoing needs of the company. The shares will be sold at prevailing market prices at the time of sale.
Will this offering dilute existing shareholders' ownership?
Yes, any sale of new shares through this ATM offering will likely dilute the ownership percentage of existing shareholders. However, ATM offerings are generally designed to minimize dilution compared to traditional large secondary offerings by selling shares gradually at market prices.
