To own Immatics, investors essentially have to believe that its TCR-based immunotherapy platform can translate growing revenue into successful late-stage programs despite continued losses. The recent US$125,000,000 follow-on offering fits directly into that story: it strengthens the balance sheet after a year of very large net losses, potentially extending the runway for pipeline trials and partnership work that many see as the key near-term catalysts. In the short term, though, issuing 12,500,000 new shares at a discount may dull some of the upside from those catalysts by diluting existing holders and reminding the market that further equity funding is a live possibility. With the share price already volatile and the business still unprofitable, the risk-reward now hinges even more on how efficiently this fresh capital is deployed.
However, investors also need to consider the growing cash-burn and dilution risk this raise underlines.
