MAX Power Announces Special Meeting of Shareholders and Completion of Warrant Exercise for Total Proceeds of $3.75 Million

Natural Hydrogen Pioneer Secures $3.75M Warrant Exercise & Sprott Control Vote Amid Lawson Drill Ramp-Up

Executive Summary
  • Big Energy (affiliate of Bitexco) exercised 8,333,333 share purchase warrants, generating $3.75 million in gross proceeds and increasing its ownership to 14.5% of MAX Power.
  • The company announced a special meeting of shareholders for August 20, 2026, to seek approval for Eric Sprott to be designated as a "control person" under CSE rules.
  • Sprott currently holds 17.98% of outstanding shares and controls 61.37% of all outstanding warrants. The vote is required because future warrant exercises could push his stake above the 19.9% threshold.
  • Sprott recently completed a $25 million private placement on May 28, 2026, at $2.00 per unit, and has signed an undertaking not to exercise warrants beyond 19.9% without shareholder approval.
  • Operationally, the company is nearing the start of a multi-well follow-up drill program at the Lawson Complex, a confirmed subsurface Natural Hydrogen system covering ~28 sq. km.
Material Impact
  • The $3.75 million warrant exercise is a standard, expected corporate action that provides incremental working capital. It is not a transformative capital raise relative to the $25 million Sprott placement completed just weeks prior.
  • The special meeting is a procedural governance step to maintain Sprott's ability to deploy additional capital via warrants. It does not alter the company's operational trajectory or asset base.
  • No new drilling results, commercial contracts, or regulatory approvals are disclosed in this release. The update is purely financial and administrative in nature.
  • The cash injection supports the ongoing Lawson drill program but does not materially extend the company's cash runway given the current burn rate.
