IPA Successfully Executes Strategic Capital
Initiatives, Strengthening Financial Position for Growth
ImmunoPrecise Antibodies Ltd. (“IPA” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:
IPA), a leader in AI-driven antibody discovery and development,
today announced the successful completion of its previously
disclosed USD $8.8 million “at-the-market” equity offering program
(the “ATM Program”) alongside the full conversion of its
outstanding debenture with Yorkville Advisors, significantly
enhancing the Company’s capital structure.
Strategic ATM Offering Raises USD $7.0 Million
Utilizing their ATM program, the Company generated approximately
USD $7.0 million in gross proceeds. The Company utilized the ATM
strategically, enabling them to dramatically reduce the cost of
capital while reinforcing their financial position.
"The successful execution of our ATM Program underscores
investor confidence in IPA's vision and technology," said Dr.
Jennifer Bath, CEO of ImmunoPrecise Antibodies. "By deploying this
program strategically, we optimized our financing approach,
reducing our cost of capital while maintaining the flexibility
needed to accelerate innovation in AI-driven antibody
discovery."
Yorkville Debenture Fully Converted
In addition to the ATM Program completion, IPA has now fully
satisfied its outstanding obligations with Yorkville Advisors, as
Yorkville has converted all principal amounts under the debenture
agreement into common shares. This marks a significant milestone in
eliminating near-term debt obligations, further strengthening IPA’s
balance sheet.
"We greatly appreciate the partnership and flexibility provided
by Yorkville Advisors throughout this process," added Dr. Bath.
"Their structured investment approach has been instrumental in
allowing us to execute on key strategic initiatives while
maintaining operational momentum."
With the completion of the ATM Program and Yorkville’s full
conversion, IPA is in a stronger financial position, allowing the
Company to continue executing its growth strategy and advancing its
AI-powered therapeutic discovery platform, LENSai.
