At Cavendish, we believe AIM is a great platform for owners of businesses as it allows them to source additional capital whilst maintaining an element of control. It also allows the flexibility for the founders to sell down their stakes in a controlled manner.
Cavendish has been involved in managing multiple sell downs over recent years and completed two in life sciences in last month, realising £11m in aggregate, both at a discount of less than 5% to the mid price. This is despite ongoing challenges in equity markets. These two sell downs, in Bioventix (£2.4m) and hVIVO (£8.4m) were both oversubscribed and allowed us to introduce a number of high quality investors to the register.
Geoff Nash, Corporate Finance Director commented: “We have an ongoing desire to broaden the shareholder base of all our corporate clients and were pleased to be able to do so for both of these fantastic businesses – we brought Bioventix to AIM with a market cap of £28m (now £260m) and started working with hVIVO (then Open Orphan) in mid-2020 when the market capitalisation was £70m (£180m today). If we can help your business, please do get in touch.”

Two great examples of our clients’ continued growth stories on AIM and how recent sell downs have broadened the shareholder base for these firms.

I am confident to say, that in 2023 at ZAKA VC we didn’t lose our momentum. We simply continued our way, following our investment strategy and further developing our know-how.
We’ve also strengthened our position in healthcare & biotech part of our portfolio with 8 investments altogether. It’s beginning to look like a speciality of ours and it’s definitely not a coincidence.
It seems that so far, it’s been a year of good decisions. I hope that new one will follow the same path.

➖ CAPITAL RAISE ➖
Adherium has announced a $8.37 million capital raising via a Placement and Non-Renounceable Entitlement Offer.
The Company has received firm commitments for a capital raising of up to $1.57 million before costs, by way of a placement of new shares to sophisticated and professional investors. The placement will be undertaken in two tranches with the second tranche including CEO and Director participation.
Adherium also proposes to undertake a fully underwritten non-renounceable entitlement offer of new shares and new options to eligible shareholders to raise up to $6.8 million before costs.
These funds will be used to fast track US commercialisation of Adherium’s Hailie® Smartinhaler® technology – with multiple FDA clearances and US reimbursement codes now in place.
Adherium CEO, Dr. Paul Mastoridis, said:
“Adherium is entering a defining phase in its commercial development. We are extending the reach and impact of our world-class respiratory health product portfolio within the US, the largest healthcare market in the world.

This deal once again confirms Sidetrade's ability to seize M&A opportunities
likely to boost its organic growth potential at prices far removed from market
standards.

Are you using Prendio?
Recently I’ve run into 4 or 5 people who have said they don’t need to talk to Excedr because they have Prendio….
But that’s not what Prendio does!
They rock, we love them, they’re one of our partners.
And they are THE TOOL for Biotech/Life Sciences procurement.
They can help you identify the right manufacturer for your next equipment purchase.
But what they don’t do… Is handle the financing.
Which is where Excedr would potentially fit into the picture, with one of our equipment leasing options.
We work together, more like peanut butter and jelly.
So if you’re using Prendio, rock on!
And when you find the equipment of your dreams… it might be worth a chat to see if a lease would make sense for your financing. 😉

Life Sciences Commentary
Geoff Nash, Director at Cavendish comments: "We all look forward to a more positive 2024 after two of most challenging years in equity markets ever experienced. Despite this, at Cavendish we continue to deliver for our clients. Since January 2022 we have raised over £105m across 13 secondaries and an IPO in feed additives. This represents over 25% of all activity in the life sciences sector where approximately £400m* was raised in 2022/3. We have lots to execute on in 2024 and look forward to growing our healthcare franchise further.”
