Newsmax Inc. is pleased to announce it will host its
second online Special Investor Webinar conversation with its Chief
Executive Officer, Christopher Ruddy.
The online Webinar will take place on Thursday, November 21,
2024 at 10:00 a.m. ET.
Newsmax has already filed with the SEC and is seeking a Public
Offering with an expected listing on the New York Stock Exchange
under the symbol “NMAX.” The Company has also engaged in a Private
Offering of preferred shares, as well as the anticipated Public
Offering, with investment bank Digital Offering LLC.
Newsmax has raised $100 million of its planned $150 million for
the Private Offering and expects to close on this round soon*.
Investors interested to find out more about the Public Offering
plan and Private Offering are invited to join the free online event
at NewsmaxWebinar.com.
This online event will provide accredited investors** with
insight into the Company’s vision, strategy and growth prospects,
specifically the impact the recent 2024 election will have on the
media landscape and Newsmax.
Newsmax has already become one of the nation’s leading news
networks. In June 2024, the Reuters Institute identified the
Company as one of the top 12 U.S. news brands.
For a limited-time, eligible investors are able to invest in the
Private Offering which currently consists of shares of the
Company’s Series B 7% Convertible Preferred Stock.
This offering is solely available to accredited investors**.
Qualified prospective investors who meet the qualifications of
an “accredited investor” can invest as little as $5,000 in
this offering and join Newsmax as a shareholder and owner.
Additional details about the Private Offering and the
contemplated Public Offering are available at
www.NewsmaxInvest.com.
Founded in 1998 as a digital media brand, Newsmax entered the
cable news market in 2014. Since then, the network has had an
astonishing rise, climbing into the top tier of cable channels, and
is now the fourth highest-rated cable news channel in the U.S.,
just behind CNN.
The Company has developed a significant audience, reaching over
40 million Americans each month through its television
broadcasts and multi-platform content, and has demonstrated
remarkable growth with revenues up 332% since 2019.
According to Nielsen, Newsmax was the only cable news channel to
see ratings growth across all dayparts in 2023, with prime-time up
42% in total viewers. Q1 2024 also saw an impressive 137% rise in
prime-time ratings, compared to the same period last year. For the
third quarter of 2024, Nielsen reported that 34 million Americans
watched Newsmax, up 48% from the second quarter.

About Digital Offering, LLC
Offering, LLC (“DO”), a leader in crowd financed public
offerings, is a next generation investment bank with a focus on
technology and innovation utilizing The Jumpstart Our Business
Startups Act, or JOBS Act.
For over a decade they specialize in helping high-quality
private and public growth companies access U.S. capital markets and
achieve their growth objectives. With constantly changing markets
and regulation Digital Offering is applying the best practices of
traditional investment banking to new securities industry rules to
enhance efficiency in capital raising.
*DISCLAIMER: Raised includes closed proceeds and
investments committed / in process of closing.
**DISCLAIMER: Please note: Accredited investors are
defined under Rule 506(c) of Regulation D promulgated by the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act, as
amended (the “Securities Act’). Investors should consider the
investment objectives, risks and investment time horizon of the
Company carefully before investing.
The Shares offered in the private offering will not be and have
not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent
registration or an applicable exemption from registration
requirements. Investing in these securities involves a high degree
of risk, and investors should be able to bear the loss of their
entire investment. Furthermore, investors must understand that such
investment could be illiquid for an indefinite period of time.
Additional details of the offering, including a private
placement memorandum, can be found at NewsmaxInvest.com.
Under Rule 506(c), general solicitation of offerings is
permitted, however, purchasers in a Rule 506(c) offering must be
"accredited investors."
The SEC defines the term "accredited investor" in Rule 501(a).
Generally, individuals are considered accredited investors if they
have a net worth greater than $1 million (excluding their primary
residence) or incomes in excess of $200,000 in the last two years
with the expectation of the same in the current year (or $300,000
with a spouse).
At the closing of the company’s anticipated public offering, the
company will convert all shares sold in this private offering
(Series B 7% Preferred Offering) to common shares. To the extent
such common shares are not tradeable after a statutory holding
period, Newsmax intends to file a registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission that will seek to register these
common shares, subject to approval by the Commission, that will
allow them to be traded on a public exchange.
The Company is “Testing the Waters” under Regulation A under the
Securities Act of 1933. The Company is not under any obligation to
make an offering under Regulation A. No money or other
consideration is being solicited in connection with the information
provided, and if sent in response, will not be accepted. No offer
to buy the securities can be accepted and no part of the purchase
price can be received until an offering statement on Form 1-A has
been filed and until the offering statement is qualified pursuant
to Regulation A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any
such offer may be withdrawn or revoked, without obligation or
commitment of any kind, at any time before notice of its acceptance
given after the qualification date. Any person’s indication of
interest involves no obligation or commitment of any kind. The
information in that offering statement will be more complete than
the information the Company is providing now, and could differ
materially. You must read the documents filed. No offer to sell the
securities or solicitation of an offer to buy the securities is
being made in any state where such offer or sale is not permitted
under the “blue sky” or securities laws thereof. No offering is
being made to individual investors in any state unless and until
the offering has been registered in that state or an exemption from
registration exists therein. The securities offered using
Regulation A are highly speculative and involve significant risks.
The investment is suitable only for persons who can afford to lose
their entire investment. Furthermore, investors must understand
that such investment could be illiquid for an indefinite period of
time. No public market currently exists for the securities, and if
a public market develops following the offering, it may not
continue. The Company intends to list its securities on a national
exchange and doing so entails significant ongoing corporate
obligations including but not limited to disclosure, filing and
notification requirements, as well compliance with applicable
continued quantitative and qualitative listing standards.
