Assume:
• Pre‑Lanstead total shares: 500m
• Lanstead subscription: 100m new shares at 6p
• Post‑Lanstead total: 600m shares
1. Structure we’re using
• IMM pledges £6m to Lanstead.
• Baseline: 20 equal “installments” of £300k each, if Measured Price = 8p.
• Actual cash to IMM per month ≈ £300k × (Measured Price ÷ 8p).
Assume the share price is constant at 50p over the 20 months due to P140 licensing deal coming with £300m cash and share price stays at cash value.
For IMM and its existing shareholders, a sustained 50p share price under this structure is extraordinarily positive.
Using the simplified 2026 setup we’ve been working with:
• 100m new shares issued to Lanstead at 6p, taking the total from 500m to 600m.
• £6m is pledged into a 20‑month sharing agreement with an 8p benchmark and £300k “baseline” per month if the price is 8p.
Equity value at 50p
• Total market cap at 50p = 600m × 50p = £300m.
• “Old” shareholders’ 500m shares = 500m × 50p = £250m.
So even after the Lanstead dilution, existing holders collectively own around £250m of equity at 50p.
Sharing‑agreement cash at 50p
With the share price at 50p throughout the 20‑month term:
• Price ratio vs benchmark = 50p ÷ 8p = 6.25.
• Monthly cash to IMM = £300k × 6.25 = £1.875m.
• Over 20 months, IMM receives ≈ 20 × £1.875m = £37.5m from the Landstead sharing agreement.
Against the £6m originally pledged, IMM is effectively up about £31.5m on that contract alone.
What this means for IMM
Under my “P140 £300m upfront, 50p share price” scenario:
• Existing shareholders see their stake in IMM worth about £250m at 50p, versus a much smaller value pre‑deal.
• IMM’s treasury is boosted by around £37.5m of cash from the sharing agreement instead of just getting its £6m back.
• The combination of large upfront licensing cash, re‑rated equity, and levered sharing‑agreement inflows means IMM is more than fully funded and can pursue further R&D or deals without needing additional equity raises at low prices.
