What it means for a shareholder
2.3m new shares at about US$1.50 to raise about US$3.5m. That's 39% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 39% smaller. If you held US$1,000 of shares (667 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.0182% to 0.0111% of the company. To keep it you'd need 424 more shares - about US$636 at the issue price.

Creek Road Miners exited the legacy Wizard World live-events business entirely, selling the remaining convention rights (Chicago, Cleveland, New Orleans, Philadelphia, Portland, St. Louis) to Informa Pop Culture Events for nothing but the assumption of associated liabilities -- confirming the business had little remaining value as the company pivoted to crypto mining.
By this point renamed Creek Road Miners, Inc. and pivoted toward cryptocurrency, the company amended its Series B Preferred Stock terms with investor Leviston Resources: conversions now price off a discount to the stock's recent trading average (85% of the lowest VWAP), floored between $1.00 and $1.50 -- a variable-rate structure that increases dilution risk as the stock falls.
Wizard Brands reported quarterly revenue of $379 thousand and a net loss of $2.5 million for the quarter ended 2021-03-31, with revenue far below the prior-year quarter's $2.6 million. Consulting fees and warrants issued for services drove higher operating costs.
Wizard Brands filed an S-1 registering the resale by selling stockholders of up to 16.2 million common shares tied to the March 2021 Series B preferred private placement. The company will not receive proceeds from the sales, though it may receive cash from warrant exercises.
As Wizard Brands, Inc., agreed to sell Leviston Resources LLC $5 million of Series B Preferred Stock and warrants, paid in tranches tied to registration-statement milestones -- capital raised as the company pivoted toward cryptocurrency mining.
Formalised Scott D. Kaufman as chief executive on a contract backdated to November 2020 that let the company pay his $250,000 salary in preferred stock until it turned a profit. Kaufman also co-managed Barlock, the fund that had lent the company $2.5 million in December 2019 against essentially all its assets -- the conflict that detonated in September 2022 when Barlock declared a default and demanded $5 million.
Bristol Investment Fund, Paul Kessler and affiliated filers disclosed in a Schedule 13D/A that Bristol Investment Fund held 2,589,986 shares, about 73.86% of the common stock. This excluded convertible debenture and warrant shares, and the filers' smaller holdings were separately listed.
