The board of CHOSA Oncology AB (publ) ("CHOSA" or the "Company") has today, 13[th] October 2023, performed a directed issue of 2 099 280 shares at a price of SEK 0,738 per share. The reason for the deviation from conducting a shareholders' preferential rights issue has been to raise capital in a time-efficient manner. The subscription price per share has been set under market conform conditions based upon Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) over a period of 10 trading days up to and including 12. October 2023, which was the last trading day for the share before the Board of Director's decision on the Directed Issue. This will increase the number of shares from 62 774 633 to 64 873 913.
Through the directed issue, CHOSA receives SEK 1,55 million before transaction costs. The company intends to use the net proceeds from the directed issue to intensify its business development activities sooner than originally anticipated.
CEO Peter Buhl comments: "We are happy to announce the support we have received from a number of existing investors (with no insider information). Their investment will, in continuation of our strong clinical data presented at ASCO, be a financial supplement for us to intensify our business development activities sooner than originally anticipated. Our primary objective is to attract robust partners or potential buyers for our innovative products, LiPlaCis® and its companion diagnostic, cisplatin DRP®, with the ambition of bringing our products to market.
In two independent lung cancer studies our platin tailored response predictor DRP® is able to precisely predict who will benefit. We believe we here have a strong tool to improve cure in platin combinations with immuno checkpoint inhibitors (PD-1 inhibitors) and we now have phase 2b data in metastatic breast cancer patients showing that the DRP® identify the patients who will benefit from liposomal cisplatin LiPlaCis®. Furthermore, LiPlaCis® has shown significant activity in a population that has undergone numerous treatment shifts, and it appears to have a gentler toxicity profile than conventional cisplatin.
Our goal is to ensure these products reach cancer patients, providing them with the benefits they need. We are confident in the potential of our products and believe they will make a significant impact in the fight against cancer".
