Over 3.87 million new shares are scheduled to be issued, reflecting 1.33% of the company's entire ordinary shares on issue. The newly created shares will be allotted on Wednesday 7 April and be available to commence trading the following day.
This follows the recently successful $40 million institutional placement completed on 4 March 2021.
Comments from the CEO
4DMedical founder and CEO, Andreas Fouras, touched on the company's plan on how to spend the acquired funds. He said:
The proceeds from the placement and SPP, together with the $28.9 million of funding from the MRFF Frontiers initiative, provide 4DMedical with a significantly enhanced capability to execute the long-term commercialisation strategy for XVD Scanners, which will open up an additional revenue stream for the business and drive the adoption of XV LVAS at medical institutions.
The Company now also has balance sheet flexibility to pursue future growth opportunities.
