The Offering
The company is looking to raise around $6.74 million, or $7.84 million if the underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional shares, from the offering. Around $4.2 million of the proceeds will be used for advancing the clinical development of OST-HER2, the lead core product candidate for Osteosarcoma. The company intends to use about $1.2 million to advance the development of its ovarian cancer drug OST-tADC.
The remainder of the net proceeds will be used for the discovery and development of new product candidates and working capital and other general corporate purposes. As of now, the company doesn’t have plans to pay cash dividends to stockholders, rather it will retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the growth and development of its business.
