STAMFORD, Conn.-- Revolution Lighting Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:RVLT) (“Revolution Lighting”), a global provider of advanced LED lighting solutions, today announced that it has filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The aggregate offering price of all securities that may be sold under the registration statement will not exceed $50 million.

Under the shelf registration statement, once declared effective by the SEC, Revolution Lighting may offer and sell from time to time debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, warrants and other securities or any combination of such securities. The Company may periodically offer one or more of these securities in amounts, at prices and on terms to be announced if and when the securities are ever offered. All net proceeds from any offering will go directly to Revolution Lighting and will be available for corporate purposes. The terms of any securities offered by the Company under the registration statement, along with the Company’s use of proceeds of any such securities, will be described in detail in a prospectus supplement filed with the SEC at the time of any such offering.
“This shelf registration statement will provide Revolution Lighting with additional flexibility to invest in our growth by accessing the capital markets in a timely and cost effective manner, which will allow us to quickly react to and capitalize on acquisition and other growth opportunities,” said Robert V. LaPenta, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Revolution Lighting Technologies.
A registration statement relating to these securities has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission but has not yet become effective. These securities may not be sold nor may offers to buy be accepted prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective. The registration statement on Form S-3 may be accessed through the SEC's website at http://edgar.sec.gov. Any offering of the securities covered under the shelf registration will be made solely by means of a prospectus and an accompanying prospectus supplement relating to that offer.
