Physiomics completes placing to fund growth opportunities

Physiomics plc (AIM: PYC), a provider of technology-based solutions to predict the effects of cancer treatment regimens for the biopharma industry, is pleased to announce that it has completed a placing, conditional only on Admission, to raise £525,000.00 (gross) from the issue of 13,125,000 new ordinary shares of 0.4p each ("Ordinary Shares") at a price of 4.0p per share, through Hybridan LLP (the "Placing"). Application has been made for the new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and dealing is expected to commence on 31st May 2018.

Following the Company's success in signing a deal with Merck KGaA in November 2017 (expected income of €500k in calendar 2018), the signing of three further clients in the first four months of 2018 (total expected income of £153k in calendar 2018) and the award of a second Innovate UK grant in the field of personalised cancer treatment (expected income £68k in calendar 2018) the Company has had significant interest from potential new clients. In order to service this level of actual and potential new business the Company is raising funds through the Placing to enable it to carry out associated activities including investing in expanding its in-house team, improving its marketing reach, match funding for future grant projects, and updating its IT infrastructure as well as for general working capital purposes.

After the Placing, the number of Ordinary Shares in issue will increase to 71,910,394. The Company's share capital additionally comprises 2,481,657,918 Deferred Shares of 0.036p each which are not quoted and to which no voting rights attach.

For the purposes of the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules ("DTRs"), the issued ordinary share capital of the Company following this allotment consists of 71,910,394 Ordinary Shares with voting rights attached (one vote per Share). There are no Shares held in treasury. This total voting rights figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine whether they are required to notify their interests in, or a change to their interest in, Physiomics under the DTRs.

Dr Jim Millen, CEO said: "We are delighted by the continuing support of current shareholders and the addition of new institutional investors to the register. The placing price of 4p per share reflects a 60% premium to the price at which the Company last raised money in September 2016 (and a discount of 35% to the closing share price on the 22nd May 2018), which is reflective of the strong commercial traction the company has enjoyed this financial year including the signing of contracts with three large global pharmaceutical companies. The directors believe this fundraising will provide a solid platform to support the growth of our business and the expansion of our client base".
