Key Changes

  • high

    Lender Helena claimed default on $10M note, seized control of crypto collateral (22.23 Bitcoin, 12,610 Solana, $80K cash) worth ~$2.8M, and is liquidating assets. Helena demands $4.5M including penalties; company disputes calculation.

  • medium

    Helena alleges company failed to register shares for resale by deadline, triggering default. Company reviewing validity of claim and exploring settlement while preserving legal rights.

Summary

DevvStream faces a liquidity crisis as its senior lender Helena seized control of $2.8 million in cryptocurrency collateral, claiming the company defaulted on a $10 million convertible note by missing a share registration deadline. Helena is liquidating the Bitcoin and Solana holdings and demanding $4.5 million including penalties and interest—$1.7 million more than the collateral value.

The company disputes portions of the claim and is exploring settlement options, but litigation risk looms if negotiations fail. Simultaneously, DevvStream announced a $6 million preferred stock financing, with $1.5 million already received and $4.5 million contingent on finalizing definitive agreements.

Most proceeds ($5 million) are committed to the Southern Energy Renewables investment tied to a pending business combination with XCF Global. The preferred stock converts to common shares at prices tied to either XCF or DevvStream stock depending on whether the merger closes, creating dilution risk for current shareholders. Retail investors should monitor whether DevvStream resolves the Helena dispute without litigation and whether the remaining $4.5 million preferred financing actually closes—both are critical to the company's ability to fund its Southern Energy commitment and avoid further financial distress.

Added Conversion mechanics high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at the holder's option at any time into common stock at a conversion price based on the earlier of (a) the five-day volume-weighted average price of XCF Global, Inc. ("XCF") common stock during the five trading days immediately following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement dated April 13, 2026 (the "BCA") among XCF, the Company, Southern, and certain merger subsidiaries, or (b) the five-day volume-weighted average price of the Company's common shares during the five trading days immediately following the termination of the BCA

The preferred stock converts to common stock at the holder's option using a conversion price based on a five-day volume-weighted average price of either XCF Global common stock (if the business combination closes) or DevvStream common stock (if the business combination terminates). Automatic conversion occurs upon a change of control or majority holder approval after BCA termination. Settlement is in shares only, potentially causing dilution to existing common shareholders.

("Helena"), the holder of the Company's senior secured convertible promissory note dated July 18, 2025, in the original principal amount of $10,000,000 (the "Note").

Added Asserted default amount high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

Helena has claimed that an asserted mandatory default amount of approximately $4.5 million is payable, consisting of remaining principal, asserted default interest, asserted registration rights liquidated damages, and asserted interest on unpaid liquidated damages. The Company is reviewing Helena's calculations and the validity and enforceability of the asserted claim, including whether certain amounts included in Helena's calculation are properly owing under the transaction documents.

Helena is demanding approximately $4.5 million, which includes remaining principal, default interest, registration rights penalties, and interest on those penalties. The company is disputing the calculation and whether all claimed amounts are actually owed under the loan documents. This represents a significant acceleration of obligations beyond the original principal balance.

Added Company response and dispute medium

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

The Company is evaluating potential resolution alternatives, including a consensual resolution of the asserted obligations, while preserving all rights, remedies and defenses available to the Company under the transaction documents and applicable law. The Company disputes certain components of the asserted mandatory default amount. No assurance can be given as to the timing or outcome of this matter.

The company is exploring settlement options while preserving its legal rights and specifically disputes parts of the $4.5 million claim. Management acknowledges uncertainty about timing and outcome. This suggests potential litigation risk if the parties cannot reach a consensual resolution.
