SAB Biotherapeutics Announces $7.9 Million Private Placement of Common Stock
December 07 2022 - 5:16PM
SAB Biotherapeutics (Nasdaq: SABS), a clinical-stage
biopharmaceutical company with a novel immunotherapy platform that
produces specifically targeted, high-potency, fully-human
polyclonal antibodies without the need for human donors, today
announced it has entered into a securities purchase agreement for
the private placement of approximately 7.3 million shares of its
common stock and warrants to purchase an equal number of common
stock (the "Warrants") (collectively, the "Securities"). Existing
SAB investors – including T. Denny Sanford, an experienced biotech
investor and healthcare philanthropist -- as well as new
institutional investors participated in the private placement.
The Warrants will be exercisable beginning six-months from the
date of issuance and will be exercisable, in whole or in part, at
an exercise price of $1.08 per share. The Warrants will expire
5-years from the date of issuance. The aggregate gross proceeds
from the offering are approximately $7.9 million, based on the
offering price of $1.08 which was the 5-day average closing price
ending December 5, 2022, for each share of the Company's common
stock plus one Warrant. The Company expects to use net proceeds
from the private placement to advance the Company’s pipeline of its
first-in-class product candidates for Clostridioides difficile (C.
diff.) and type 1 diabetes, as well as for working capital and
other general corporate purposes. The transaction closed December
7, 2022.
“We’re thrilled to have the continued support of our existing
investors, and welcome our new institutional investors whose
participation is a vote of confidence in our scientific platform,”
said Eddie Sullivan, co-founder, President, and Chief Executive
Officer of SAB. “We are excited to continue to advance the
development of our immunotherapeutic human polyclonal antibody
platform across several therapeutic categories including infectious
disease, immune and autoimmune disorders.”
Brookline Capital Markets, a division of Arcadia Securities LLC,
served as the exclusive placement agent for the private placement
transaction.
