ACADIA Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Nasdaq:ACAD), a biopharmaceutical company utilizing innovative technology to fuel drug discovery and clinical development of novel treatments for central nervous system disorders, today announced that it filed a registration statement as required under the terms of its previously announced Committed Equity Financing Facility (CEFF) with Kingsbridge Capital Limited.
Under the terms of the CEFF, ACADIA has access, at its discretion, to up to $60 million in capital from Kingsbridge over a three-year period through the sale of newly-issued shares of ACADIA’s common stock. The funds that can be raised under the CEFF over the term will depend on the then-current price for ACADIA’s stock and the number of shares actually sold, which may not exceed an aggregate of 7,072,364 shares. ACADIA was required to file the S-3 registration statement to cover the shares issuable pursuant to the CEFF and the up to 350,000 shares that may be exercised pursuant to a warrant, which was issued to Kingsbridge upon the signing of the CEFF. The effectiveness of the S-3 registration statement is a condition to Kingsbridge’s obligation to purchase shares under the CEFF.
ACADIA currently has no specific plans for the CEFF and is not obligated to utilize any of the $60 million available under the CEFF.
The securities issuable pursuant to the CEFF and upon exercise of the warrant may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under the Securities Act of 1933 and applicable state securities laws or available exemptions from registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy these securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state. The registration statement referred to above has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission but has not yet become effective. The securities being registered may not be offered or sold under the registration statement prior to the time that the registration statement becomes effective. Any offering of ACADIA’s common stock under the registration statement will be made only by means of a prospectus.
