NeoVolta Secures $5 Million Line of Credit, Strengthens Financial Position

SAN DIEGO, CA, September 4, 2024 – (NASDAQ: NEOV), NeoVolta Inc., a leader in solar energy storage solutions, is pleased to announce the successful securing of a $5 million Line of Credit (LOC) from National Energy Modelers, Inc. This strategic financial arrangement is a significant milestone for NeoVolta, as it bolsters the company’s working capital while preserving shareholder equity.

The LOC is a pure debt financing agreement with no equity component. This allows NeoVolta to advance its short-term objectives and capitalize on emerging opportunities in the residential energy sector without the risk of equity dilution for its shareholders.

“We are thrilled to secure this $5 million Line of Credit,” said Steve Bond, CFO of NeoVolta. “With so many opportunities in the residential energy space, this infusion of capital will enable us to take advantage of more of them and continue to establish ourselves as the Swiss Army knife of the energy storage industry. This Line of Credit strengthens our financial foundation and positions us to pursue our growth strategy more effectively.”

Importantly, pursuant to the LOC NeoVolta agreed not to utilize its Form S-3 registration statement. This means that NeoVolta cannot issue shares under the ‘shelf’ registration statement without the lender’s consent, effectively addressing recent investor concerns about potential dilution arising from the registration statement.

The LOC will provide NeoVolta with the necessary capital to advance its strategic initiatives, ensuring that the company can continue to innovate and lead in the rapidly evolving solar storage market.
