AMPG Files For Shelf Registration To Replace Expired Identical Shelf Without Dilution, Reinforcing Financial Stability

HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., April 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AmpliTech Group, Inc (Nasdaq: AMPG), a designer, developer, and manufacturer of state-of-the-art signal-processing components for satellite, 5G, and other communications networks, including the design of complete 5G/6G systems, and a global distributor of packages and lids for integrated circuit assembly, today announced it has filed with SEC a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 replacing the previous shelf registration which just expired. Once declared effective by the SEC, and If AMPG decides to raise capital in a future offering using the shelf registration statement, AMPG will describe the specific details of that future offering in a prospectus supplement that is filed with the SEC. However, AMPG is not selling any securities from the shelf registration statement at this time. The registration statement is meant to ensure continued financial flexibility without diluting shareholder value as the company affirms that it does not anticipate the need to dilute shareholder equity at current price levels. The shelf registration comes as a strategic move to maintain agility in capital markets and bolster the company's ability to respond swiftly to potential future financing needs.

Shelf registration is a common practice among publicly traded companies, allowing them to register securities for future sale over a specified period. By re-filing for its shelf registration, AMPG affirms its commitment to responsible financial management and proactive planning for future growth opportunities.

"Processing this shelf registration is a proactive step in ensuring that we have the flexibility to access capital markets efficiently when opportunities arise," said Fawad Maqbool, CEO of AmpliTech group. "We remain committed to maximizing shareholder value and believe that our current financial standing allows us to pursue growth initiatives without resorting to dilutive measures in the near term horizon."

AMPG continues to focus on delivering value to its shareholders through strategic investments, operational excellence, and innovation. The company's strong performance and prudent financial management have positioned it for sustained growth and resilience in the ever-evolving market landscape.

The registration statement on Form S-3 has been filed with the SEC but is not yet effective. These securities may not be sold nor may offers to buy be accepted under the Form S-3 registration statement prior to the time the Form S-3 registration statement becomes effective. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell nor the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities that are proposed to be registered on the Form S-3, nor shall there be any sale of such securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities law of any such state. Any offer of securities will occur solely by means of the prospectus included in the registration statement and one or more prospectus supplements that would be issued at the time of the offering.
