Metavesco, Inc. has announced its Regulation A offering is approximately 99% subscribed, an outcome the company describes as uncommon for an OTC-listed issuer. The offering was qualified in July at $0.0008 per share, reflecting the company's market price at that time. As of the announcement, the company's common stock was trading at approximately double the original offering price. "Raising capital on the OTC without discounting shares is extremely difficult," said Ryan Schadel, CEO of Metavesco. "Most OTC offerings require significant discounts, lack transparency, or fail to reach completion. That reality has existed for a long time." Schadel added that OTC issuers operate under similar regulatory obligations as listed companies but often lack the infrastructure to engage investors consistently, which impacts liquidity and cost of capital.
The company reported receiving subscription interest from both existing and new shareholders in recent weeks, including several larger retail investors. Management believes completing this offering provides increased financial flexibility to execute on operating and platform initiatives. Access to this growth capital allows for deliberate investment in product development, infrastructure, and strategic opportunities, improving execution certainty and alignment with long-term shareholders. "This outcome was the result of process," Schadel continued. "Clear communication, consistent engagement, and treating shareholders as long-term co-owners can materially improve how capital formation works in the OTC." The company views this experience as a case study that informed the development of OTCfi ACCESS, a platform designed to provide OTC issuers with tools for more effective shareholder communication and engagement.
"MVCO is the case study that proves out the premier platform of the OTCfi ecosystem and illustrates how issuer-focused infrastructure can improve outcomes in the OTC," said Schadel. "The process is repeatable, but most OTC companies lack the infrastructure to support it. OTCfi ACCESS is being built to address that gap." The company emphasized that market outcomes are not guaranteed and depend on various factors including market conditions and execution.
