Surna Closes $1.325 Million Financing; Company Pursuing Sector Technology Leadership, Market Share

BOULDER, CO–(Marketwired – Oct 16, 2014) – Surna Inc. (OTCQB: SRNA), a company that develops, acquires, produces and sells equipment for the legal marijuana industry with a focus on disruptive technology, today announced it has closed a $1.325 million financing.

“Surna is in an aggressive building phase, as we capitalize on the cannabis industry’s fragmentation, by building a commanding technological leadership position at the same time we capture higher market share of an exponentially growing marketplace,” said Surna Chief Financial Officer, Douglas McKinnon. “We see the recent capital infusion, completed without assistance of an investment banker or brokerage, as confirming the market’s confidence in our strategy and investment fundamentals.

“Revenue growth has been strong over the first three quarters this year,” Mr. McKinnon added. “With our increasing investment in technology, R&D, people and multi-channel marketing, today we have a reinforced infrastructure, higher capacity and growing pipeline of disruptive new products targeted to commercial growers being readied for launch in early 2015 — all of which we expect will drive our financial performance forward.”

The recently concluded offering was conducted as a private investment into a public entity under SEC Rule 506 without any investment banking assistance nor placement fees paid. Summary terms of the offering include a ten percent interest promissory note, convertible into common stock at $1 or at a discount to market. The debt has a rolling maturity, across each of its 25 subscribers, of two years from each date of each issuance which stretched from April to September. Further, upon maturity, debt holders are restricted to converting only ten percent of their position into common stock per month, for the initial six months following maturity. Details of the financing can be read in the Company’s Form 8-K which it will file with the SEC shortly.
