Trident Digital Tech is worth about $8M. This morning it completed a US$15 million equity offering, which it says brings September financing to approximately US$23 million to fund its "AI and Digital Infrastructure Strategy."
Those two numbers belong next to each other. One month of raising is roughly three times the market value. Because the money came from selling equity, existing holders now own a thinner slice of a company that is mostly new cash and new shares. $TDTH is -11.40% on tonight's scan.
#CAPS moved its balance sheet the other way today. It retired approximately 85% of its convertible note principal, leaving a $1 million balance. That removes a claim that could have turned into shares. TDTH went the opposite direction and issued the shares outright.
TDTH's own record doesn't fit the easy story. In 14 prior sessions that opened 5% or more below the prior close, half closed above the open and 43% closed below it. Fourteen sessions is a thin sample, and the median open-to-close was +1.21%.
