Successful Completion of Non-Renounceable Rights Offer
In January Phylogica was delighted with the successful non-renounceable rights offer that raised $6.1 million. The offer was fully underwritten by Bernard Hockings, our largest shareholder, and Patersons Securities. In a show of strong support 87% of the entitlement offer was taken-up by existing shareholders. The capital provides Phylogica with a cash runway of about two years, which will be used to commercialise our unique drug discovery platform.
