SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) shares rose on Friday after the company expanded its capital runway through a significant amendment to its credit framework.

SMX (Security Matters) said it extended its available capital into 2028 by boosting its ELOC commitment to $250 million.

Capital Extension

The amended ELOC framework more than doubled SMX's committed capital and pushed operational visibility beyond 22 months. The company said longer capital visibility allows steadier decision-making and more consistent execution of strategy.

SMX said earlier that capital constraints often compressed timelines and pulled focus away from long-term planning. The new commitment supports the company's multi-year roadmap across infrastructure, verification and supply-chain technologies.

SMX said a runway into 2028 reduces market-timing pressure and strengthens partner and stakeholder confidence.

Executives said access to capital helps teams coordinate complex initiatives instead of chasing short-term financing.

SMX said it has secured multiple capital agreements since 2023 as its strategy advanced.

Platform Vision

SMX said its platform spans materials, regulatory frameworks and supply-chain networks built for verification at scale. Executives said the systems integrate with varied infrastructure and regulatory models across countries.

SMX said the extended runway better matches the time required for complex integrations. The company said broader visibility enables parallel execution and more logical sequencing of initiatives. The extended runway comes as SMX works with institutional, industrial and regulatory partners on traceability and verification efforts.

Executives pointed to collaborations with A*STAR, TruCotton and Redwave as examples of real-world integration.

SMX said capital support typically follows demonstrated value in real systems rather than theoretical potential.
