NEW YORK, Oct. 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WeShop Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: WSHP) (“WeShop” or the “Company”) today announced that on September 9, 2026 WeShop entered into a new financing option through a Committed Equity Facility (the “Equity Facility”) with Roth Principal Investments, LLC (“RPI”), an affiliate of CR Financial Holdings, Inc., the holding company for Roth Capital Partners.
Under the Equity Facility, WeShop has the right, but not the obligation, to issue and sell in its sole discretion up to $25 million of its Class A ordinary shares (the “Ordinary Shares”) to RPI, subject to the conditions outlined in the Equity Facility.
WeShop may draw on the Equity Facility opportunistically over time and is not required to use the full amount available. On October 13, 2026, WeShop’s resale registration statement filed in connection with the Equity Facility was declared effective, registering up to 6 million Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to the Equity Facility. The Equity Facility forms part of WeShop’s broader financing strategy and complements the continuing shareholder support WeShop receives, including an existing loan which, on September 30, 2026, was increased by $500,000, bringing the total outstanding principal to $1.68 million, with the maturity date extended to September 29, 2027.
“This committed equity facility strengthens our financial flexibility and supports a disciplined capital strategy as we advance WeShop’s next phase of growth with a focus on expanding into the U.S. market,” said Maria Weaver, CEO of WeShop. “We intend to deploy capital thoughtfully against the opportunities that matter most: enhancing our technology, deepening member engagement and expanding our community ownership model. We remain focused on responsible growth and long-term value creation for our members and shareholders.”
