NORWALK, Conn.-(Business Wire)-September 29, 2009 - Bolt Technology Corporation (NASDAQ: BOLT) today announced that it has filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Upon being declared effective by the SEC, the shelf registration statement will allow Bolt to offer and sell from time to time in the future, in one or more public offerings, up to $50 million of equity, debt, or other types of securities described in the registration statement, or any combination of such securities.
The proceeds of the securities may be used for acquisitions, capital expenditures, repayment of debt the Company may incur in the future, working capital and other general corporate purposes. The specifics of any potential future offering, along with the prices, terms and use of proceeds of any securities offered by the Company, will be determined at the time of any applicable offering and will be described in a prospectus supplement at the time of such applicable offering.
Mr. Raymond M. Soto, Bolt’s chairman, president and CEO commented, “We believe that the shelf registration statement, once effective, should provide the Company additional flexibility to act as opportunities arise.”
