SoFi shares rise as record revenue, member growth drive strong Q3 results
JUPITER, FL - Jupiter Neurosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:JUNS), a biotech company with a current market capitalization of $53.3 million according to InvestingPro data, announced Monday it has entered into strategic financing agreements with an affiliate of Yorkville Advisors Global, LP, providing access to up to $20 million in capital. The company’s stock has seen significant volatility, falling 71% over the past year while showing a strong 137% rebound in the last six months.
The financing package consists of a $6 million pre-paid advance, with $4 million funded at signing on October 24, and a $14 million standby equity purchase agreement (SEPA) available over 24 months.
The company plans to use the proceeds primarily to support its Phase 2 trial of JOTROL, a resveratrol delivery platform being tested for Parkinson’s disease treatment, and to accelerate marketing of its recently launched Nugevia nutritional product line.
The pre-paid advance includes an initial $4 million funded at signing through a convertible promissory note with a fixed conversion price of $1.50, with an additional $2 million anticipated after the effectiveness of a registration statement. The notes have a 12-month maturity and can be repaid in cash or common stock.
Under the SEPA terms, Jupiter Neurosciences has the option to sell up to $14 million of common stock to Yorkville over 24 months at a 3% discount to market price, subject to an effective SEC registration statement.
"We believe this financing will provide us with the capital required to complete the Phase 2 Parkinson’s disease trial and continue to support the launch of our DTC longevity nutraceutical line, Nugevia," said Christer Rosén, Chairman and CEO of Jupiter Neurosciences, according to the company’s press release.
Jupiter Neurosciences is pursuing a dual strategy focused on developing treatments for neuroinflammation and central nervous system disorders while expanding into the consumer longevity market with its Nugevia product line. Investors should note that analysts have set a consensus price target of $30 per share, though InvestingPro analysis suggests the stock is currently overvalued based on its proprietary Fair Value model.
