The post Forward Industries Plans $4B Share Sale to Back Solana Treasury appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Nasdaq-listed company Forward Industries filed for an at-the-market (ATM) equity offering program of up to $4 billion, giving the company flexibility to sell shares over time to support its Solana-focused treasury strategy.  On Wednesday, Forward Industries announced that the program will allow it to issue and sell common stock through sales agent Cantor Fitzgerald.  The offering is being made under an automatic shelf registration statement filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). An automatic shelf registration allows certain large, publicly traded companies to quickly raise capital with flexibility.  While the maximum amount listed is $4 billion, the company noted that sales may or may not occur depending on market conditions.

Forward Industries announced its Solana treasury strategy plans on Sept. 8, securing $1.65 billion in cash and stablecoin commitments to build its SOL stash, led by crypto heavyweights like Galaxy Digital, Jump Crypto and Multicoin Capital. The announcement was followed by a SOL buying spree, with Galaxy Digital buying $306 million in Solana tokens in one day to put in Forward Industries’ stash.  At the time of writing, treasury data tracker Solana Strategic Reserve showed that Forward Industries led the SOL treasury companies, holding $1.6 billion in tokens.
