Mark Elenowitz, managing director for Digital Offering LLC, with Newsmax's private placement investments reaching the $185 million mark, urged potential investors interested in the offering to act soon, as the deadline for the opportunity is approaching rapidly.
Newsmax has filed with the SEC seeking to go public, and Elenowitz said that is on track to happen soon.
As part of that plan, Newsmax is offering Preferred Shares to investors before any potential listing on the stock exchange.
But he noted that deadline to apply for shares in the pre-public offering private placement is coming to an end on Friday, Jan. 31.

"We've been talking about this for the last six months as Newsmax has been preparing to go public onto the New York Stock Exchange," Elenowitz explained to Newsmax's Lidia Curanaj on Saturday.
"Ahead of that, we've been doing what's called a private placement. And that's that $185 million number,” he said, noting the company had surpassed its goal of $150 million and could go as high as $225 million,
Full information is available online, through the NewsmaxInvest.com site, where investors can read all the information about the offering and be a part of it, Elenowitz added.
"If you can qualify, you get a chance to get a 25% discount [of the expected IPO share price] ahead of this public offering," he told Curanaj.
To participate and get the 25% discount, investors must be accredited, meaning they must have either an annual income of $200,000 or a $1 million net worth or more.
"We know all the viewers, not everybody has that type of net worth," he said. "And that's OK, because you can still be a part of the public offering.” Elenowitz said.
He noted that on the NewsmaxInvest.com, there's a green box where interested investors can sign up for information on the planned public offering.
People who buy the early shares will be able to sell them once the company goes public if they wish, said Elenowitz.
He explained that the company will likely go public within the next "30 to 45 days," subject to SEC approval.
Elenowitz further pointed out that Newsmax has experienced a great deal of growth in the past several months, including with "enormous" Nielsen ratings.
"The company has also just recently signed with YouTube TV, continuing to expand its reach," he said.
Investors joining in before the deadline will also get a 7% coupon for a "little extra bonus," said Elenowitz.
And once the public offering is complete, subject to SEC approval and the NYSE approval, Newsmax will be ringing the bell and trading under the symbol NMAX on the main board of the New York Stock Exchange, said Elenowitz.
He also noted that people who have been previous investors in Newsmax can still buy more shares or participate in the expected public offering, he said.
Elenowitz urged investors to act now and make sure they begin the investment process by Friday, Jan. 31.
