Gossamer Bio Announces Updates Regarding its Initial Public Offering
With todays filing, Gossamer Bio intends to request from the SEC acceleration of the effective date of the registration statement prior to the date that it would have otherwise become automatically effective.
Gossamer Bio, Inc., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused
on discovering, acquiring, developing and commercializing therapeutics
in the disease areas of immunology, inflammation and oncology, today
announced that it has filed an amended registration statement on Form
S-1 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in
connection with its proposed initial public offering of its common
stock. The amended registration statement restores the delaying
amendment language contemplated by Rule 473(a) promulgated under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), such that the
registration statement Gossamer Bio filed on January 23, 2019 will no
longer become automatically effective pursuant to Section 8(a) of the
Securities Act 20 calendar days after its filing date. With today’s
filing, Gossamer Bio intends to request from the SEC acceleration of the
effective date of the registration statement prior to the date that it
would have otherwise become automatically effective.
Gossamer Bio previously announced that it had filed a registration
statement on January 23, 2019 offering 14,375,000 shares of its common
stock at an initial public offering price of $16.00 per share. The
proposed offering terms have not changed. Gossamer Bio’s common stock
has been approved for listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under
the symbol “GOSS.” Gossamer Bio expects to grant the underwriters a
30-day option to purchase up to an additional 2,156,250 shares of common
stock in connection with the offering. All of the shares are being sold
by Gossamer Bio.
