They will definitely need another share placing by then to strengthen the balance sheet.
My personal view is that it will happen sooner rather than later and the likes of FinnCap will help organise it.
You might be interested in comments from the last issue , funds remaining on the balance back then are now back to todays levels which is why I think it will happen very soon, hence the non advancement of the share price.
EVGEN PHARMA SET FOR MULTIMILLION-POUND PLACING

Evgen Pharma set for multimillion-pound placing
Clinical stage drug development company Evgen Pharma, which has operations in Cheshire and Liverpool, is set to secure £5m through a further share placing.
At the company's latest general meeting, all resolutions were passed. This included plans – as revealed in April – to raise the money through two placings of 13,057,489 and 20,275,840 shares on AIM.
The first tranche was submitted on 18 April, with the remainder of the £5m set to be secured today (9 May).
Evgen will use the net funds to strengthen the balance sheet for future partnering, develop product formulation for use in STEM II and other investigator-led clinical studies, and conduct further toxicology studies that will remove current restrictions on the duration of clinical trial treatment phases.
At the time the proposals were originally announced, chief executive Stephen Franklin said: "The funds strengthen the company's balance sheet following the recent announcement of the successful final read-out of our phase II STEM clinical trial in breast cancer and ahead of the final read-out of our phase II SAS clinical trial in subarachnoid haemorrhage.
"The additional funds will enable us to further progress our development work whilst also supporting business development and out-licensing activities."
FinnCap and WG Partners both worked on the deal.
