The round was oversubscribed, beating its US$388.2K minimum target.
The terms: The unsecured notes carry 10% annual interest, paid quarterly, and mature on June 30, 2027. Each note converts to shares at US$0.01, for up to 36,578,947 ordinary shares.
What's the money for? Norwood Systems will put the funds toward working capital, product development, commercialisation, and global go-to-market efforts.
Why now? Conversion cannot occur before December 31, 2026, and the company plans to seek shareholder approvals at its annual general meeting, scheduled for November 30, 2026. Part of the issuance uses existing placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1; additional notes require shareholder consent.
The fine print: For every two conversion shares issued, noteholders receive one free unquoted option — up to 18,289,474 options exercisable at US$0.02, expiring December 31, 2028. Alto Capital, acting as capital markets adviser, earns a 6% cash fee plus 4,000,000 broker options on the same terms.
The signal: At roughly $485,000, this is a modest raise that sits in the lower half of comparable rounds. For a listed microcap, a convertible note offering is a flexible way to secure near-term capital without an immediate equity dilution event — deferring that decision to shareholders.
