The following constitutes Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned on November 2, 2015, and amended on January 9, 2017. This Amendment No. 2 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.
Item 2. Identity and Background
Item 2(a)-(c) and (f) is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
(a) - (c) This Statement is filed by 180 Degree Capital Corp. (“180”), Daniel B. Wolfe and Kevin M. Rendino (each, a "Reporting Person"). Mr. Wolfe and Mr. Rendino may be deemed to have shared voting and shared dispositive power over the Common Stock owned by 180 (the "Shares") as result of their respective positions as President, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Compliance Officer (Mr. Wolfe) and Chief Executive Officer (Mr. Rendino) of 180. The principal business address of each Reporting Person is 7 N. Willow Street, Suite 4B, Montclair, NJ 07042. None of the Reporting Persons is considered to be part of a group, and this Schedule 13D has been filed by the Reporting Persons as a joint filing pursuant to Rule 13d–1(k)(1) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
(f) 180 is a New York corporation. Mr. Wolfe and Mr. Rendino are citizens of the United States of America.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Item 4 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
The description set forth in Item 3 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference. 180 acquired such securities in the Company for investment purposes. Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to 180, the availability of Shares at prices that would make the purchase of additional Shares desirable, or the market price at which Shares are then currently trading that would make the sale of Shares desirable (in either case, including market prices that may exist as a result of this filing or other filings by 180), 180 may increase or decrease its position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of Shares on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as 180 may deem advisable. 180 does not have any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon completion of any of the actions discussed herein.
180 intends to review its investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and to engage in discussions with management and the Board of Directors of the Issuer concerning the business, operations, corporate governance and future plans of the Issuer. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer's financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the Shares, conditions in the securities market and general economic and industry conditions, 180 may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation,
• | communicating privately or publicly with other stockholders, the Issuer's Board of Directors or other persons; |
• | making proposals or director nominations to the Issuer; |
• | soliciting proxies with respect to proposals or director nominees made by 180; |
• | supporting proposals or director nominations made by 180 or other stockholders; |
• | purchasing additional Shares or selling some or all of their Shares; or |
• | changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in this Item 4. |
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5(a)-(b) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth below:
(a)-(b) The aggregate percentage of Common Stock reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 20,213,638 shares of common stock outstanding as of June 15, 2017, calculated by adding 15,838,638 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of May 9, 2017, as reported on the Issuer's quarterly report filed on Form 10-Q on May 15, 2017, to 4,375,000 shares of Common Stock issued in a underwritten public offering announced in a press release on June 15, 2017, available at http://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2017/06/15/1024654/0/en/Adesto-Technologies-Corporation-Prices-Public-Offering-of-Common-Stock.html. As of June 15, 2017, 180 beneficially owned 1,769,868 shares of Common Stock, constituting approximately 8.8% of the shares outstanding of the Issuer.
