ONWARD Medical Announces €40M Capital Increase with Support from EQT Life Sciences
ONWARD Medical has announced a capital increase through a private placement targeting institutional investors, aiming to raise approximately €40 million in gross proceeds. Venture capital fund EQT Life Sciences will participate in the transaction with an investment of €25 million.
The net proceeds from the private placement, combined with existing cash reserves, are expected to fund the company's operations until the first quarter of 2028, provided there are no draws on its debt facility. ONWARD Medical, specializing in neurorehabilitation technologies for individuals with spinal cord injuries and other movement disorders, has developed the ARC-EX® system, which is marketed in the United States and Europe, and an investigational implantable system, ARC-IM®, designed to address multiple unmet needs, including tension instability following spinal injury.
