BAY SHORE, N.Y.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Del Global Technologies Corp. (OTCBB:DGTC) (aDel Globala or athe Companya) today announced that it filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the aSECa) for a rights offering to its existing shareholders. The rights offering will be made through the distribution of non-transferable subscription rights to purchase shares of the Companya™s common stock, par value $0.10 per share, at a subscription price to be determined. Assuming the rights offering is fully subscribed, the Company will receive gross proceeds of approximately $15 million, less expenses of the rights offering. The Company filed this rights offering to raise equity capital in a cost-effective manner that gives all of Del Globala™s shareholders the opportunity to participate. The net proceeds will be used for potential working capital needs and general corporate purposes. The Company may use a portion of the proceeds to acquire or invest in businesses, products and technologies complementary with our existing businesses. However, we have no current agreements nor are we in serious discussions to acquire or invest in any business, product or technology.

The rights offering includes an oversubscription privilege which permits each rights holder that exercises its rights in full to purchase additional shares of common stock that remain unsubscribed at the expiration of the offering. This oversubscription privilege is subject to (i) the availability and allocation of shares among holders exercising this oversubscription privilege and (ii) a maximum number of shares for which shareholders can oversubscribe without endangering the availability of Companya™s net operating loss carry forwards under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (the aNOLa™sa), in each case as further described in the rights offering documents.

A registration statement relating to these securities has been filed with the SEC but has not yet become effective. The securities may not be sold nor may offers to buy be accepted prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective. The rights will be issued to all shareholders as of a record date which has yet to be determined. The exercise price of the shares also has yet to be determined. We will provide notice of the record date and exercise price in the future at such time as it is determined. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.
