InMed Pharmaceuticals Announces Closing of $5 Million Registered Direct and Private Placement Offerings Priced At-The-Market Under Nasdaq Rules

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 06, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“InMed” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: INM), a leader in the research, development, manufacturing and commercialization of rare cannabinoids, today announced the closing of its previously announced registered direct offering and concurrent private placement with a single healthcare-focused institutional investor priced at-the-market under Nasdaq rules. The Company issued 4,079,256 of its common shares at a purchase price of $0.858 per share (or pre-funded warrant in lieu thereof) in the registered direct offering. In the concurrent private placement, InMed has also issued and sold to the investor 1,748,250 common shares (or pre-funded warrant in lieu thereto) at the same purchase price as in the registered direct offering. In addition, the Company issued to the investor in the offerings unregistered preferred investment options (the “investment options”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 5,827,506 common shares. The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of both offerings were approximately $5 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offerings to continue pipeline development, advance commercial activities and for general working capital purposes. H.C. Wainwright & Co. acted as the exclusive placement agent for the offerings. The unregistered investment options issued in the offerings are exercisable immediately upon issuance at an exercise price of $0.74 per share and will expire six and one-half years from the date of issuance. The Company also amended certain existing warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 4,480,771 common shares of the Company that were previously issued to the investor, with exercise prices ranging from $2.848 to $5.11 per share and expiration dates ranging from July 2, 2026 to November 16, 2026, effective upon the closing of the registered direct offering so that the amended warrants have a reduced exercise price of $0.74 per share, are not exercisable until six months following the closing of the registered direct offering and expire seven years following the closing of the registered direct offering. The common shares, pre-funded warrants and common shares underlying the pre-funded warrants (but excluding the common shares and pre-funded warrants sold in the private placement and the investment options and the common shares underlying the investment options sold in the offerings) were offered and sold by InMed pursuant to a “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 (333-262532), including a base prospectus, previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 4, 2022 and declared effective by the SEC on February 11, 2022. The offering of the common shares and the pre-funded warrants issued in the registered direct offering were made only by means of a prospectus supplement that forms a part of the registration statement. A final prospectus supplement and an accompanying base prospectus relating to the registered direct offering was filed with the SEC and is available at the SEC’s website located at http://www.sec.gov. Electronic copies of the prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus may also be obtained from H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC at 430 Park Avenue, 3rd Floor, New York, New York 10022, by phone at (212) 856-5711 or e-mail at placements@hcwco.com. The unregistered common shares, pre-funded warrants and investment options sold in the offerings described above were offered in a private placement under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and Regulation D promulgated thereunder and, along with the common shares underlying the pre-funded warrants and investment options, have not been registered under the Act or applicable state securities laws. Accordingly, the common shares, the pre-funded warrants, the investment options and the common shares underlying the pre-funded warrants and investment options may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the SEC or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. The securities were offered only to an accredited investor. Pursuant to a registration rights agreement with the investor, the Company has agreed to file one or more registration statements with the SEC covering the resale of the unregistered common shares and the shares issuable upon exercise of the unregistered pre-funded warrants and investment options.
