FluoGuide A/S: FluoGuide"s IPO prior to listing at Spotlight Stock Market commences today

Today, the subscription period in FluoGuide A/S’s (“FluoGuide” or “Company”) issue of units prior to planned listing at Spotlight Stock Market commences. A fully subscribed issue of units initially provides the company approx. DKK 15.9 million before issue costs and an additional approx. DKK 6.4 million before issue costs if all consideration free warrants are utilized. FluoGuide has secured approximately DKK 9.9 million, corresponding to approx. 62 percent of the initial issue volume through subscription commitments. The capital is intended to finance clinical proof-of-concept for the company’s first product – FG001 – which is lighting up cancer during surgery. Prospectus, teaser and subscription form are available on the websites of FluoGuide (www.fluoguide.com), Sedermera Fondkommission (www.sedermera.se) and Spotlight Stock Market (www.spotlightstockmarket.com). Subscription of shares can be made by submitting a subscription form to Sedermera Fondkommission or through Sedermera Fondkommission’s website (via BankID) or Nordnet Bank (www.nordnet.se or www.nordnet.dk). For subscription of shares directly through other banks, the subscriber is asked to contact his or her bank.   

FluoGuide – intelligent surgical targeting
FluoGuide A/S develops surgical solutions that are expected to reduce suffering for the patient and increase the likelihood of cure as well as reduce costs for the health care system. The first product is the compound FG001, which lights up the cancer and its invasive growth into the surrounding tissue, and the first indication is glioblastoma (brain tumor). Today, local cancer tissue is left behind in up to 50 % of patients undergoing surgery with the intention to completely remove the cancer. In a recently performed non-human preclinical study on eight subjects, additional local metastases were found in four of the eight subjects using FG001 and fluorescent light. This means that in half of the subjects (50 %) traditional white light surgery overlooked cancer tissue that could be seen and removed with FG001. These results demonstrate the potential of FG001 to vastly improve the likelihood of performing radical surgery (removal of all cancer) and thereby improving outcome and survival. 

Morten Albrechtsen, CEO of FluoGuide, comments:
“Imagine that a surgeon simply could inject a compound and turn on a special light making the tumor clearly visible and fluorescent – allowing the surgeon to remove the entire cancer. This might sound unreal, but this is what FluoGuide makes possible. The route to approval of our first product is well defined and associated with low risk compared to regular drug development. We plan to establish compassionate use sales as early as in 2020 and market launch in a first country in 2022/2023. Join us in transforming cancer surgery!” Offering in summary
