Bicycle Therapeutics Announces Proposed $200 Million Public Offering of American Depositary Shares and Non-Voting Ordinary Shares

By: via Business Wire

Bicycle Therapeutics plc (Nasdaq: BCYC), a biotechnology company pioneering a new and differentiated class of therapeutics based on its proprietary bicyclic peptide (Bicycle®) technology, today announced that it has commenced an underwritten public offering of $200 million of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), each representing one ordinary share and, in lieu of ADSs to investors that so choose, non-voting ordinary shares. All of the ADSs and non-voting ordinary shares in the proposed offering will be sold by Bicycle. In connection with the offering, Bicycle intends to grant the underwriters in the offering a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional $30 million of ADSs. The proposed offering is subject to market and other conditions, and there can be no assurance as to whether or when the proposed offering may be completed, or as to the actual size or terms of the offering.

Bicycle plans to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund the continued development of its proprietary pipeline and for other research and development, as well as for general corporate purposes.

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Jefferies and Leerink Partners are acting as joint book-running managers for the proposed offering.

The proposed offering is being made pursuant to a “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3ASR that was filed by Bicycle with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and automatically became effective upon filing. A preliminary prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus relating to and describing the terms of the offering have been filed with the SEC and are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Copies of the preliminary prospectus supplement, final prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus, when available, may be obtained from: Goldman Sachs & Co.
