Item 8.01 Other Events.

On December 2, 2014, an investor purchased shares of Digimarc Corporation (the “Company”) common stock under the Company’s continuous offering program, through Wells Fargo Securities LLC (Wells Fargo) as sales agent, for an aggregate purchase price of $15 million. Shares purchased by the investor represent approximately 8% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

Since inception of the continuous offering program in August 2014, Digimarc has sold shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate offering price of approximately $17 million under the program, at an average price per share of $24.44. The Company anticipates that the net proceeds from sales made under the program to date are sufficient to meet the Company’s current working capital requirements; therefore, the Company does not expect to make significant sales under the program for the foreseeable future.

This is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any of these securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful. Such an offering may be made only by means of a prospectus supplement and accompanying base prospectus.

Forward-looking Statements

This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the federal securities laws, including, without limitation, the Company’s existing and future capital requirements and its expectations about future sales of shares under the program. The forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, including those risk factors set forth in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. Except as required by law, Digimarc undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this Form 8-K.
