MENLO PARK, Calif., Sept. 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ — BioPharmX Corporation (NYSE MKT: BPMX) (“BioPharmX” or the “Company”), a specialty pharmaceutical company focusing on dermatology and women’s health, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement with institutional investors to purchase shares of common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $930,000 in a registered direct offering. The closing of the offering is expected to take place on or about September 29, 2016, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

 

In connection with the offering, the Company will issue approximately 1,550,000 registered shares of common stock at a purchase price of $0.60 per share.  Concurrently in a private placement, for each share of common stock purchased by an investor, such investor will receive from the Company an unregistered warrant to purchase 0.80 shares of common stock.  The warrants have an exercise price of $0.75 per share, and shall be initially exercisable six months following issuance and terminate five years following the initial exercise date.

BioPharmX intends to use the net proceeds to obtain additional capital for working capital and for other general corporate purposes.

 

The shares of common stock (but not the warrants or the shares of common stock underlying the warrants) will be offered and sold by the Company pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 19, 2016 and subsequently declared effective on February 4, 2016 (File No. 333-209026) (the “Registration Statement”), and the base prospectus dated as of February 4, 2016 contained therein.
