Spectral AI Raises up to $15 Million of Debt Financing and Strengthens Financial Position for U.S. Commercialization

DALLAS, March 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Spectral AI, Inc. (NASDAQ: MDAI) (“Spectral AI” or the “Company”), a leading developer of the AI-driven DeepView® System, which uses multi-spectral imaging and AI algorithms to predict burn healing potential, today announced the successful completion of a debt financing agreement of up to $15.0 million in funding from Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund II, L.P., a fund of Avenue Capital Group, with an initial draw down of $8.5 million. In connection with this debt financing, the Company also raised $2.7 million of equity financing from institutional as well as existing investors. With total cash on hand now of over $14 million and potential access to additional debt of $6.5 million, Spectral AI is able to accelerate its product commercialization efforts, including the upcoming U.S. launch of its DeepView System.

The term of the financing agreement is for three years, with an interest-only payment period of no less than 15 months, which can be extended to 24 months upon achieving the milestones laid out in the second financing tranche. The second financing tranche, which is contingent upon FDA clearance of the DeepView System, includes an additional $6.5 million in debt financing and a $7.0 million equity raise to be completed by the Company.    The financing also includes warrant coverage equal to 8.5% of the total funding commitment from Avenue Capital Group, with an exercise price of $1.80 per share.   As part of the financing, the Company has agreed to a market standstill with no additional stock sales by the Company for a period of at least six months. SP Angel Corporate Finance LLP acted as the sole placement agent for the participation of existing UK investors. Dominari Securities LLC acted as the sole placement agent for U.S. investors.

“This significant financing provides Spectral AI with the resources necessary to finalize our commercialization efforts and bring our cutting-edge DeepView System across the finish line to the U.S. market,” said Dr. J. Michael DiMaio, M.D., Chairman of the Board of Directors of Spectral AI. “We are excited to be working with Avenue Capital and expect the partnership to provide long-term benefits to the Company. This supports our efforts to bring our technology to market and transform the way healthcare providers predict burn wound healing potential and ultimately improve patient outcomes.”
