Recent Past Development
JAGX announced on April 15, 2021, that the at-the-market (“ATM”) financing program that Jaguar Health established with Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. on October 5, 2020, has been increased by $15.3 million for any future funding requirements. JAGX filed a registration statement and prospectus supplement on April 9, 2021, in accordance with its previously announced At “The Market Offering Agreement” with Ladenburg, as an agent, to increase the size of the at-the-market offering under which JAGX can offer and sell shares of Jaguar Health’s common stock from time to time via Ladenburg.
Lisa Conte, Jaguar’s president and CEO commented:
JAGX is ecstatic to have increased the ATM program’s potential. While Jaguar Health does not intend to issue any shares at this time, the upsized ATM system is intended to provide JAGX with future funding, if required, at the current market price at the time of sale, thus potentially priced at-the-market, or above-the-market, as defined by NASDAQ, based on timing.
