Earlier this month we reported that MindMed had filed a prospectus with the SEC for a “mixed shelf” offering with proceeds of up to $200 million. A mixed shelf offering allows a company to “register a new issue of securities without having to sell the entire issue at once. The issuer can instead sell portions of the issue over a three-year period without re-registering the security or incurring penalties.”
Following up on this, the company has just announced the approval for shares to be sold for up to $100,000,000 in aggregate sales in “at the market” transactions (at market price).
They don’t have to raise the full amount, so we’ll be watching for the final details of this capital raise. For a look at MindMed’s most recent financials, see the company’s Q1 results released yesterday.
