Celcuity Inc. Announces $50 Million Private Placement

MINNEAPOLIS, MN / ACCESSWIRE / October 18, 2023 / Celcuity Inc. (NASDAQ:CELC), a clinical-stage biotechnology company pursuing development of targeted therapies for oncology, announced today that it has entered into a securities purchase agreement to sell securities in a private placement that is expected to result in gross proceeds of approximately $50 million. In the private placement, an institutional investor has agreed to purchase pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of Celcuity's common stock at a price of $8.699 per warrant, each with an exercise price of $0.001 per share (for aggregate consideration equating to $8.70 per share). Subject to certain limitations, each pre-funded warrant will be exercisable immediately. The closing of the private placement is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to occur on October 20, 2023. The Company expects to use the net proceeds to advance clinical development of gedatolisib and for general corporate purposes.

The securities to be sold in the private placement have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or any state or other jurisdiction's securities laws, and accordingly may not be offered or resold in the United States except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such applicable state securities laws. The Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC registering the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the pre-funded warrants purchased in the private placement.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities being offered, nor shall there be any sale of the securities being offered 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. Any offering of the securities under the resale registration statement will only be made by means of a prospectus.

About Celcuity

Celcuity is a clinical-stage biotechnology company pursuing development of targeted therapies for oncology. The company's lead therapeutic candidate is gedatolisib, a potent, pan-PI3K and mTOR inhibitor. Its mechanism of action and pharmacokinetic properties are highly differentiated from other currently approved and investigational therapies that target PI3K or mTOR alone or together. A Phase 3 clinical trial, VIKTORIA-1, evaluating gedatolisib in combination with fulvestrant with or without palbociclib in patients with HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer is currently enrolling patients. More detailed information about the VIKTORIA-1 study can be found at ClinicalTrials.gov. A Phase 1b/2 clinical trial, CELC-G-201, evaluating gedatolisib in combination with darolutamide in patients with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer, is planned to begin enrolling patients in the first quarter of 2024. The company's CELsignia companion diagnostic platform is uniquely able to analyze live patient tumor cells to identify new groups of cancer patients likely to benefit from already approved targeted therapies. Celcuity is headquartered in Minneapolis.
