Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

As previously disclosed, on January 11, 2023, American Virtual Cloud Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) and two of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (such court, the “Court”, and such cases, the “Cases”). Also as previously discussed, on February 14, 2023, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Sellers”) entered into a “stalking horse” Asset Purchase Agreement (as subsequently modified, the “Purchase Agreement”) with Skyvera, LLC (the “Purchaser”). The Purchase Agreement provided that the Purchaser would acquire the Purchased Assets (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) for a purchase price consisting of (i) cash in the amount of $3,250,000, subject to reduction by the amount, if any, by which the deferred revenues of the Sellers as of the date of the closing of the Purchase Agreement exceeds the deferred revenues of the Sellers as of the date of the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) the Purchaser’s assumption of certain liabilities of the Sellers, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

In connection with the Cases, and pursuant to bid procedures approved by the Court, on March 7, 2023, the Debtors held an auction (the “Auction”) under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code relating to the disposition of substantially all of the Debtors’ assets. The winning bid at the Auction was submitted by the Purchaser, which agreed to pay cash consideration in the amount of $6,780,062. The Company expects to enter into an amended and restated asset purchase agreement with the Purchaser which will reflect the increased cash purchase price. The completion of the transaction is subject to a number of conditions, which, among others, include the entry of a sale order by the Court, the performance by each party of its obligations under the Purchase Agreement (as expected to be amended and restated) and the material accuracy of each party’s representations.

The information, including Exhibit 99.1 hereto, the Company furnished under Item 7.01 of this report is not deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. Registration statements or other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission shall not incorporate this information by reference, except as otherwise expressly stated in such filing.

Cautionary Information Regarding Trading in the Company’s Securities

The Company continues to face certain risks and uncertainties that have been affecting its business and operations, and these risks and uncertainties may affect the Company’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or any alternative sale transaction and could impact the outcome of the Cases. Holders of the Company’s equity securities will likely be entitled to little or no recovery on their investment following the Cases, and recoveries to other stakeholders cannot be determined at this time. The Company cautions that trading in the Company’s securities given the pendency of the Cases is highly speculative and poses substantial risks. Trading prices for the Company’s securities may bear little or no relationship to the actual value realized, if any, by holders of the Company’s securities in the Cases. Accordingly, the Company urges extreme caution with respect to existing and future investments in its securities.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This document includes certain statements that are not historical facts but are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook,” and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Chapter 11 process and the Cases, AND the Company’s future prospects and potential strategic alternatives, including a potential sale of the Company’s assets in connection with the Chapter 11 process. The Company’s actual results or outcomes and the timing of certain events may differ significantly from those discussed in any forward-looking statements. These statements are based on various assumptions and on the current expectations of the Company’s management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability.

Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of the Company. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including risks associated with the potential adverse impact of the Bankruptcy Filings on the Company’s liquidity and results of operations; changes in the Company’s ability to meet its financial obligations during the Chapter 11 process and to maintain contracts that are critical to its operations; the outcome and timing of the Chapter 11 process and any potential asset sale, including the risk that no purchaser of the Company’s assets emerges; the effect of the Bankruptcy Filings and any potential asset sale on the Company’s relationships with vendors, regulatory authorities, employees and other third parties; possible proceedings that may be brought by third parties in connection with the Chapter 11 process or any potential asset sale; uncertainty regarding obtaining Court approval of a sale of the Company’s assets or other conditions to any potential asset sale; the timing or amount of any distributions, if any, to the Company’s stakeholders; and those factors discussed in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 15, 2022 and quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 14, 2022, in each case under the heading “Risk Factors,” and other documents of the Company filed, or to be filed, with the SEC. If the risks materialize or assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that the Company presently does not know or that the Company currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this document. The Company anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause its assessments to change. However, while the Company may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, the Company specifically disclaims any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this document. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
