Equity Raises:

  • On November 12, 2024, Eaze Inc. announced the closing of a $10M Series B funding following the acquisition of assets from Eaze Technology.
  • We have to admit we are somewhat puzzled and need to dig deeper into this story. From an outsider’s point of view, we see Eaze as a company that burned tens of millions on California delivery without ever turning a profit and is now rising from the ashes with a new $10M funding after announcing it was halting operations.
  • It gets stranger and stranger: the use of proceeds indicates that the company intends to hire more than 1000 people, double Florida cultivation capacity, open new dispensaries in FL, CA, CO, and MI., and launch new marketing campaigns highlighting Eaze’s newly launched scheduled delivery services.
  • Our uniform response to each of these initiatives is, “Really?”

Public vs. Private Raises: 

  • Two of the week’s three capital raises were public. Both trade in Canada (one on TSX and one on CSE), and both trade in the U.S. on Nasdaq.

Equity vs. Debt Cap Raises:

  • Debt accounted for 21,8% of the week’s funds raised.
