9. Equity Financing

In June 2019, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Shelf Registration Statement”), covering the offering of up to $250.0 million of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, and units. The Shelf Registration Statement included a prospectus covering the offering, issuance and sale of up to $75.0 million of the Company’s common stock from time to time through an “at-the-market” offering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Initial ATM Offering Program”). The SEC declared the Shelf Registration Statement effective on June 6, 2019.

In June 2019, the Company also entered into a sales agreement (the “June 2019 Sales Agreement”) with Cowen and Company, LLC (“Cowen”) to sell shares of the Company’s common stock, from time to time, with aggregate gross sales proceeds of up to $75.0 million, through the ATM Offering Program under which Cowen acts as its sales agent. Cowen is entitled to compensation for its services equal to up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of any shares of common stock sold through Cowen under the June 2019 Sales Agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company issued and sold 5,002,257 shares of its common stock through its ATM Offering Program and received net proceeds of approximately $37.3 million, after deducting commissions and other offering expenses of $1.3 million.

In July 2020, the Company filed an additional prospectus supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement. This prospectus supplement covers the offering, issuance and sale of up to an additional $50.0 million of the Company’s common stock from time to time through an additional “at-the-market” offering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Additional ATM Offering Program”). The Initial ATM Offering Program and Additional ATM Offering Program are collectively (the “ATM Offering Programs”).

 

In July 2020, the Company entered into a second sales agreement (the “July 2020 Sales Agreement”) with Cowen to sell shares of the Company’s common stock, from time to time, with aggregate gross sales proceeds of up to $50.0 million, through the Additional ATM Offering Program under which Cowen will act as its sales agent. The issuance and sale of shares of common stock by the Company pursuant to the July 2020 Sales Agreement are also deemed an “at-the-market” offering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Cowen is entitled to compensation for its services equal to up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of any shares of common stock sold through Cowen under the July 2020 Sales Agreement. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, there were 1,187,068 shares of the Company’s common stock sold through the Initial ATM Offering Program and 33,561 shares of the Company’s common stock sold through the Additional ATM Offering Program and received total net proceeds of approximately $8.9 million, after deducting commissions and other offering expenses of $0.3 million.
