Australian dermatology specialist Botanix Pharmaceuticals (ASX: BOT) saw its shares dip 3.2% to A$0.15 this morning, despite announcing receipt of firm commitments for $13.5 million (US) via an institutional placement, with proceeds to support preparation for commercial launch activities for its lead product Sofdra (sofpironium bromide) gel.
Proceeds from the placement will support preparation for commercial launch activities of Sofdra in the USA, as well as general working capital purposes and costs of the placement.
Botanix says its immediate focus is on engaging US payers (insurers); preparing launch marketing and sales materials; testing telemedicine and supply chain elements; and finalising our sales strategies. This injection of funds will accelerate these key activities.
