Cycurion, Inc. (NASDAQ: CYCU) completed a $6 million at‑market private placement on December 4, 2025, selling 1,657,460 shares of common stock and issuing warrants to purchase up to 3,314,920 additional shares at an effective combined price of $3.62 per share. The transaction generated gross proceeds of $6,000,005.2, with net proceeds earmarked for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The placement follows Cycurion’s recent financial performance, which has been characterized by negative EBITDA of $5.83 million over the past twelve months and a market capitalization of $10.2 million. The company’s price‑to‑book ratio of 0.53 and its recent return to compliance with Nasdaq’s bid‑price requirement underscore the need for additional liquidity to support ongoing operations and growth initiatives.
Management explained that the capital infusion will accelerate the company’s inorganic growth strategy, support execution on an $80 million+ backlog, and strengthen its position in AI‑powered cybersecurity and mission‑critical government IT solutions. CEO Kevin Kelly noted that the placement “provides the financial flexibility to pursue strategic acquisitions and invest in high‑margin AI capabilities that are driving demand across both commercial and government segments.”
While the placement supplies much-needed working capital, it also signals that Cycurion’s current cash burn and modest margins—its gross margin stood at 7.1% in Q3 2025—require external funding to sustain expansion. The company’s focus on AI and government contracts aligns with a broader market trend, as the global AI‑in‑cybersecurity market is projected to grow substantially, offering a tailwind for Cycurion’s strategic priorities.
The $6 million raise positions Cycurion to capitalize on emerging opportunities while managing short‑term liquidity constraints, but it also highlights the company’s ongoing financial challenges and the importance of disciplined capital deployment to achieve long‑term profitability.
