Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 19, 2021, Red Violet, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into definitive securities purchase agreements (collectively referred to herein as the “Agreement”) with certain investors (collectively, the “Purchasers”) for the purchase and sale of an aggregate of 552,915 shares of the Company’s common stock in a registered direct offering for gross proceeds of $21,010,770. The purchase price to be paid by the Purchasers is $38.00 per share. The form of Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The foregoing summary of the terms of the Agreement is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, such document, which is incorporated herein by reference.

The 552,915 shares of common stock were offered and sold, and will be issued, pursuant to the Prospectus Supplement, dated November 19, 2021, to the Prospectus included in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-233025) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 5, 2019 and declared effective by the SEC on August 9, 2019, and an effective Registration Statement on Form S-3MEF (Registration No. 333-261202) filed with the SEC on November 19, 2021, which upsized the amount of securities available under the Prospectus by the maximum allowable 20% of the maximum aggregate offering price of the remaining securities eligible to be sold (representing an additional $3,501,800 of common stock).

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the shares for working capital and general corporate purposes or in connection with potential future transactions. The Company did not use an investment banker in connection with the offering.

The net proceeds to the Company from the offering, after deducting estimated offering expenses, is approximately $20,945,000. The registered direct offering is expected to close on or before November 23, 2021, subject to customary closing conditions.
