Transactions provide working capital while retiring existing debt facilities LITTLE ROCK, Ark., June 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inuvo, Inc. (NYSE American: INUV), a leader in artificial intelligence advertising technology, today announced financing transactions resulting in gross proceeds of $12.97 million to the Company. "Together, these transactions simplify our capital structure while providing liquidity as we pivot towards our proprietary audience modeling AI, IntentKey, and the high-margin, compounding growth we believe it can deliver. Most importantly, with this additional runway, we are better equipped to capitalize on the significant market opportunity in front of us as we continue to build a stronger, more resilient Inuvo and return shareholder value for the long-term," said Rob Buchner, Chief Executive Officer.

The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the promissory notes was $10 million, of which $3.8 million was received immediately upon closing and the remaining $6.2 million was placed into a collateralized deposit account, $1.2 million of which will be released upon completion of the registered direct offering described below and the remaining to be released upon compliance with terms of the financing.
