Regulatory News:
VALBIOTIS (Paris:ALVAL) (FR0013254851 - ALVAL, PEA/SME eligible), a Research & Development company committed to scientific innovation for preventing and combating metabolic diseases, today announces the strengthening of its cash position with nearly €8M of additional resources already secured.
At 30 June 2020, VALBIOTIS had a cash position of €10,913 K (unaudited data), compared to €8,033 K at 31 December 2019. This cash position does not include additional financing obtained since that date:
- The receipt of CHF 3M during September for Nestlé Health Science's first milestone payment following the first patient visit in the REVERSE-IT clinical study;
- The proceeds of the capital increase carried out with a new shareholder, AMIRAL GESTION, for a gross amount of €2M, on the basis of a price per share of €4.50, representing a 5.4% premium over the closing share price on 16 July 2020;
- The payment of a PGE (Loan Guaranteed by the French State) for an amount of €3M.
With a strengthened and sustainable financial structure, the Company, while continuing the final stages of the development of TOTUM-63 financed by Nestlé Health Science, who will also be in charge of its commercialization, can accelerate development of its research programs on the reduction of LDL blood cholesterol (TOTUM-070), the reduction of blood pressure (TOTUM-854) and the reduction of hepatic steatosis (TOTUM-448).
Jocelyn PINEAU, co-founder and CFO of VALBIOTIS, comments: "The first half of 2020 saw a number of milestones achieved. We signed a partnership with Nestlé Health Science to fund the completion of the development of TOTUM-63, our first product, through to commercialization and health claim submissions to the US and European authorities. New revenues resulting from this agreement combined with AMIRAL GESTION's entry into the capital and obtaining a PGE considerably strengthens our cash position and secures our financial situation. We would like to thank the public authorities and our banking partners, as well as all our institutional and individual shareholders. We are now able to focus all our efforts on the further development of our promising pipeline with a view to concluding new licensing agreements, in line with our strategic plan.”
