The stock closed at $0.38 on August 19\. The next morning, a Texas family office paid **$1.00 a share — about 160% above that close** — for a block of new equity in the same company. The stock rose 49% on the day the deal was announced, and still finished well below what the investor paid.

Mixed Martial Arts Group Limited NYSEAMERICAN: MMA 

MMA.INC said in an August 20 announcement on GlobeNewswire that **the placement raised $4 million in exchange for 4 million ordinary shares**. No warrants, options or convertible securities were attached, and no broker or placement agent commissions were paid, according to the announcement. The company said it received the full amount.

The absence of warrants is the part that matters most to existing holders. A warrant gives an investor the right to buy additional shares later at a fixed price — when that price sits below the market at maturity, the investor converts and new shares enter circulation, making each existing share a smaller piece of the same company. **No such instrument was attached to this deal**: the 4 million new shares are the entirety of what was issued.

Shares **closed 49.00% higher at $0.5662**, on dollar volume of about $247 million.

The new shares were issued as restricted securities. Before the Texas family office can resell them, it must meet **applicable holding requirements under federal securities law**. The company said proceeds will go to working capital.

The investor paid $1.00 a share. At the close on the day the deal was announced, the stock sat at $0.5662 — and the shares cannot yet be sold into that market.
