Insights

IMDX raises ~$24.5M net via registered direct to fund transplant diagnostics R&D.

Insight Molecular Diagnostics completed a registered direct offering of 3,482,498 common shares and pre-funded warrants for up to 1,043,478 shares at $5.75 per share, for expected gross proceeds of approximately $26.0 million and net proceeds of about $24.5 million after fees.

The company states it will direct this capital to general corporate purposes with an emphasis on transplantation research and development, including expanding its GraftAssure platform beyond kidney into other organs, most immediately heart transplant rejection testing. This aligns the financing with pipeline and product-expansion goals rather than balance-sheet repair.

Pre-funded warrants have a nominal exercise price of $0.0001 per share and feature beneficial ownership limitations of 4.99% or 9.99%, helping prevent any single holder from crossing those ownership thresholds without advance notice. Actual dilution will depend on the mix of shares versus pre-funded warrants purchased and subsequent warrant exercises disclosed in future filings.

On February 10, 2026, Insight Molecular Diagnostics Inc. (the “Company”) entered into securities purchase agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) with certain institutional investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell (i) 3,482,498 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, no par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) Pre-Funded Warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to 1,043,478 shares of Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrant Shares”) in a registered direct offering (the “Offering”), pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-281159), a base prospectus and prospectus supplement relating to the Offering (the “Prospectus Supplement”), in each case filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The offering price was (i) $5.75 per Share and (ii) $5.7499 per Pre-Funded Warrant, which is the price of each Share sold in the Offering, minus the $0.0001 exercise price per Pre-Funded Warrant. The net proceeds from the Offering were approximately $24.5 million, after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company currently plans to use the net proceeds from the Offering primarily for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to research and development in the transplantation category. Proceeds from the offering will allow the Company to invest in research and development with the goal of expanding its GraftAssure product offering beyond kidney transplant rejection testing into other organs, and most immediately, into heart transplant rejection testing.

The Pre-Funded Warrants have an initial exercise price per share of $0.0001, subject to certain adjustments. The Pre-Funded Warrants may be exercised at any time until exercised in full, except that a holder (together with its affiliates) will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any Pre-Funded Warrant, which, upon giving effect to such exercise would cause the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock beneficially owned by the holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% (or, upon election of the holder, 9.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to or after giving effect to the exercise, subject to such holder’s rights under the Pre-Funded Warrants to increase or decrease such percentage to another percentage not in excess of 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from such holder to the Company.

 

The Purchase Agreements contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company, including for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreements were made only for the purposes of such agreement and as of the specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.
