CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Aug. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Immuneering Corporation (Nasdaq: IMRX), a clinical-stage oncology company focused on keeping cancer patients alive, today announced the closing of its previously announced private placement. The private placement was made to top-tier institutional and accredited investors, for total up front gross proceeds of approximately $25 million, before deducting fees and expenses. Immuneering sold: (i) an aggregate of 6,329,113 unregistered shares of the company’s Class A common stock at a purchase price of $3.95 per share (or, for certain investors in lieu of Class A common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of Class A common stock), and (ii) accompanying purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,848,096 shares of Class A common stock, with each such warrant representing the right to purchase one share of the company’s Class A common stock at an exercise price of $5.50 per share. The pre-funded warrants were issued for a purchase price equating to $3.949 per pre-funded warrant share (which was the per share purchase price for the Class A common stock less the $0.001 per share unfunded exercise price for each pre-funded warrant). The investors were granted registration rights as part of the transaction. The purchase warrants are exercisable for a period of five years following the date on which the Class A common stock issued and issuable in the transaction are registered for resale.
