What's Going On With Immunic Stock?

Immunic, Inc. IMUX shares are roughly flat following strength early Friday after the company announced a three-tranche private placement of up to $240 million.

The Details:

Immunic reported that the first tranche is an upfront payment of $80 million at $1.43 per share, expected to close on Jan. 8, subject to customary closing conditions.

The second tranche is a mandatory purchase of an additional $80 million of shares of common stock at $1.716 per share, representing 120% of the first tranche purchase price and is conditioned on the announcement of phase 2b topline data for the vidofludimus calcium (IMU-838) progressive multiple sclerosis clinical trial, volume weighted average share price levels, and minimum trading volumes.

A third tranche, to occur no later than three years after the second tranche, provides for the issuance of $80 million of shares of common stock (or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof) at the same price per share as the second tranche.

Immunic expects total gross proceeds from the offering to be between $160 and $240 million.

The company also provided a business update on Friday, highlighting its recent accomplishments and upcoming milestones.

"The past year has been an extraordinarily productive and successful one for Immunic, with key clinical data releases highlighting the uniqueness and enormous value potential of each of our two latest-stage clinical assets," stated Daniel Vitt, Ph.D., CEO of Immunic.
