FAQ

Why Neutral?

While the capital raised can strengthen Exagen's financial position, dilution from new shares might concern investors. Historically, share offerings can lead to a temporary price drop until the market absorbs new shares.

How important is it?

The significant funds raised will provide liquidity, but increased share count can dilute individual ownership. It's likely to impact investor sentiment, though not fundamentally harm the company’s prospects.

Why Short Term?

The immediate effects of dilution and capital raised will be felt in short-term trading as the market reacts to the offering's completion. Over longer terms, the real effects depend on how Exagen utilizes the new capital.
