NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Harrow Health, Inc. (NASDAQ: HROW) (“Harrow Health” or the “Company”), an ophthalmic-focused healthcare company, today announced that the Company has closed on a private sale to B. Riley Securities, Inc. of 440,000 shares of its newly created Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) for net proceeds of approximately $10.67 million.
The Company expects to use the net proceeds from this transaction for general corporate purposes, including funding future strategic product acquisitions and related investments, making capital expenditures and funding working capital.
Commenting on the transaction, Mark L. Baum, Harrow Health’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are pleased to have closed on this $11 million Series B Preferred Stock transaction, which, coupled with our recently closed $55 million unsecured senior notes offering and the $10 million in proceeds from our sale of Eton Pharmaceuticals stock, brings total funds raised by the Company in 2021 to just over $75 million. We expect this increase in our overall cash position to provide ample funds to aggressively pursue several current business development engagements to acquire, partner or in-license FDA-approved or late-stage FDA-approvable ophthalmic drug candidates currently under negotiation. We are very appreciative of the support from the financial community and our stockholders in Harrow Health’s vision, and we are very excited about the transformative opportunities we see in the near future.”
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the Preferred Stock in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, sale or solicitation would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
