Capital Stock

 

As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s authorized capital stock consisted of 95,000,000 shares of common stock, of which 48,244,960 shares were outstanding, and 2,500,000 shares of preferred stock, including 1,850,000 shares designated as Series A Preferred Stock, of which none were outstanding. As of December 31, 2025, no dividends have been declared on the Company’s capital stock.

 

July 2025 Equity Offering

 

On July 30, 2025, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Equity Underwriting Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies”), TD Securities (USA) LLC, and Leerink Partners LLC as representatives (the “Representatives”) of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”) agreeing, subject to customary conditions, to issue and sell in a public offering (i) 1,836,842 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, at a price to the public of $38.00 per Share and (ii) in lieu of Shares to certain investors, pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 400,000 shares of common stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”), at a price to the public of $37.999 per Pre-Funded Warrant, which represents the per share public offering price for the Shares less the $0.001 per share exercise price for each such Pre-Funded Warrant (the “Equity Offering”). In addition, pursuant to the Equity Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters an option to purchase up to an additional 335,526 shares of common stock (the “Option Shares”), less underwriting discounts and commissions. The Underwriters exercised their option to purchase the Option Shares in full on July 30, 2025. The Equity Offering was completed on July 31, 2025.

 

The net proceeds from the Equity Offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, were $91.6 million, including the proceeds from the Underwriters’ exercise of their option in full to purchase the Option Shares. The Company may also receive nominal proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants.

 

Each Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable for one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share, or alternatively, at the election of each holder, shares of common stock may be issued through a cashless exercise, with the net number of shares of common stock determined according to the formula set forth in each Pre-Funded Warrant. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable at any time after the date of issuance until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised. A holder (together with its “attribution parties,” as defined in the Pre-Funded Warrant) may not exercise any portion of the Pre-Funded Warrants if immediately after exercise, the holder (together with its attribution parties), would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise. However, a holder may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 19.99%, which increase or decrease shall not become effective until 61 days after notice from the holder to the Company.

 

 

Sale and Issuance of Stock

 

On May 30, 2024, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with Leerink Partners LLC, TD Securities (USA) LLC and Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated as representatives of the several underwriters relating to the issuance and sale of 3,871,000 shares of common stock, at a price to the public of $15.50 per share, generating gross proceeds of $60.0 million. The offering closed on May 31, 2024 and resulted in net proceeds to the Company of $56.3 million after deducting underwriting discounts and other offering expenses payable by the Company.

Pre-Funded Warrants

 

On October 18, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors (the “Investors”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Investors in a private placement pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 5,747,787 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share. Each warrant to purchase one share had a purchase price of $8.699 per share, and an exercise price of $0.001 per share for the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrant.

 

 

Each warrant is immediately exercisable and will not expire. Under the terms of the warrants, the Company may not effect the exercise of any such warrant, and a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any warrant, if, upon giving effect to such exercise, the aggregate number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the holder (together with its affiliates, other persons acting or who could be deemed to be acting as a group together with the holder or any of the holder’s affiliates, and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of common stock would or could be aggregated with the holder’s or any of the holder’s affiliates for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) would exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the SEC (the “Maximum Percentage”). A holder may reset the Maximum Percentage to a higher percentage (not to exceed 19.99%), effective 61 days after written notice to the Company, or a lower percentage, effective immediately upon written notice to the Company. Any such increase or decrease will apply only to that holder and not to any other holder of warrants.

 

The Securities Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions.

 

The following table summarizes the activity for all common stock warrants outstanding:

 

   Common stock warrants   Weighted- average exercise price per share 
Outstanding as of December 31, 2024   11,268,939   $4.04 
Issued   450,537    1.67 
Exercised   (5,282,375)   8.07 
Surrendered upon cashless exercise   (14,541)   10.43 
Expired        
Outstanding as of December 31, 2025   6,422,560   $0.53 

 

During the year ended December 31, 2024, several of the Company’s investors exercised 1,827,357 common stock warrants, net of shares withheld for the exercise price, at exercise prices ranging between $8.05 and $9.50 per share, which generated $14.7 million in cash. During the year ended December 31, 2024, 3,544 common stock warrants expired.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Series A preferred stock

 

The Series A preferred stock is non-voting, and each share is convertible at the option of the holder, subject to certain limitations, into 10 shares of common stock. Holders of Series A preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends, on an as-if-converted-to-common stock basis, when, as and if, and in the same form as, dividends are actually paid on the common stock. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, or in the event of a Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined in the Certificate of Designations of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock), the holders of Series A preferred stock are entitled to be paid from assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders, before any payment is made to the holders of common stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount per share equal to the greater of (i) the original issue price ($5.75 on an as-converted-to-common stock basis), plus all accrued and unpaid dividends and (ii) the amount that the holder would have been entitled to receive at such time if the Series A preferred stock were converted into common stock. The Company may not, without the consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A preferred stock, amend its charter in a manner that adversely affects the powers, preferences or rights of the Series A preferred stock or issue or obligate itself to issue shares of any additional class or series of capital stock unless the same ranks junior to the Series A preferred stock with respect to the distribution of assets on the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company and the payment of dividends.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2025, 317,577 shares of Series A preferred stock were converted into 3,175,770 shares of common stock. As of December 31, 2025, no shares of Series A preferred stock were outstanding.
