$7 Million Offering Details

Salarius stated in a press release on Tuesday that it priced an underwritten public offering with the goal of raising roughly $7 million in gross proceeds before fees.

The offering comprises 2.51 million common stock shares and pre-funded warrants to purchase 2.15 million shares at a combined offering price of $1.50 per share with accompanying Series A and Series B warrants.

Warrant Structure and Terms

The exercise price for both warrant series is $1.50. Series B warrants have a one-year exercise window, whereas Series A warrants are exercisable for five years after issuance. The filing states that the warrants have fixed pricing with no variable pricing features.

Merger-Contingent Closing

The completion of Salarius’ proposed business combination with Decoy Therapeutics Inc., a preclinical-stage biotechnology company, is a prerequisite for the offering’s closing, which is anticipated on Wednesday.

Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. serves as the sole book-running manager.

Salarius plans to use the proceeds to fund research programs, repay Decoy's promissory notes, and cover working capital needs.

Stock Performance

The stock of the clinical-stage company is down 96.25% year to date.

The company has a market capitalization of $1.03 million and an average daily trading volume of 318,090 shares.
