REDMOND, WA / ACCESS Newswire / February 24, 2026 / MicroVision, Inc. (NASDAQ:MVIS), a technology pioneer delivering advanced perception solutions in autonomy and mobility, today announced that it had enhanced its financial position by issuing senior secured convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $43.0 million, which defer existing repayment obligations and fortify the Company's balance sheet, thus supporting acceleration of acquisition synergies.
"We were pleased to work with our financial partner, High Trail Capital, to secure new capital and defer existing debt repayment requirements, both of which strengthen our financial position at this pivotal time for the Company," said Glen DeVos, MicroVision's Chief Executive Officer. "As we integrate the assets and operations that we recently acquired from Luminar Technologies and Scantinel Photonics, this new capital helps us work more quickly to accelerate the benefits that we expect to realize from these highly strategic acquisitions."
Continued DeVos, "As we advance engagement with MicroVision customers and rebuild commercial relationships stemming from the acquired businesses, we must secure production capacity and accelerate product deliveries. The strength of our financial position is a critical factor in support of these efforts. We appreciate High Trail Capital's financial support and confidence in MicroVision's future."
WestPark Capital, Inc. acted as exclusive placement agent for the transaction.
