ImmunoGen Announces Closing of Public Offering and Full Exercise of Underwriters’ Option to Purchase Additional Shares

By: via Business Wire

ImmunoGen, Inc. (Nasdaq: IMGN), a leader in the expanding field of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for the treatment of cancer, today announced the closing of its previously announced underwritten public offering of 17,486,364 shares of its common stock, which reflects the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase up to 5,850,000 additional shares of common stock, and pre-funded warrants to purchase 27,363,636 shares of its common stock. The shares of common stock were sold at a price of $6.60 per share and the pre-funded warrants were sold at a price of $6.59 per pre-funded warrant, which represents the per share public offering price for the common stock less the $0.01 per share exercise price for each such pre-funded warrant, in each case before underwriting discounts and commissions. All of the shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants in the offering were sold by ImmunoGen.

The total gross proceeds from the offering (before deducting the underwriting discounts and offering expenses) were $295.7 million.

ImmunoGen intends to use the net proceeds of the offering to fund its operations, including, but not limited to, commercialization activities, clinical trial activities, supply of drug product, business development activities, capital expenditures, and working capital.

Jefferies, Cowen, and Guggenheim Securities acted as joint book-running managers for the offering. Canaccord Genuity acted as lead manager for the offering.

The securities described above were offered by ImmunoGen pursuant to a shelf registration statement that was previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and became effective upon filing. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities in this offering, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction. A final prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus relating to the offering was filed with the SEC and is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
