Contineum Therapeutics, a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company founded in 2017 and based in San Diego, California, has successfully priced its initial public offering (IPO) at $16 per share. The company, which focuses on developing small molecule therapies for neuroscience, inflammation, and immunology, is offering 6,875,000 shares to the public. This pricing suggests strong investor interest in Contineum's innovative approach to addressing central nervous system disorders.

The IPO is expected to raise approximately $110 million in gross proceeds for Contineum Therapeutics. These funds will likely be used to advance the company's pipeline, which includes promising programs such as PIPE-791 and PIPE-307, designed to target multiple CNS disorders through neuroregeneration, myelin restoration, synaptogenesis, and axonal repair.

Contineum's shares are set to begin trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the ticker symbol "CTNM" on April 5, 2024. The offering is anticipated to close on April 9, 2024, subject to customary closing conditions. Additionally, the underwriters have been granted a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,031,250 shares at the IPO price.

This successful IPO pricing comes at a time when the biotech sector has been showing signs of renewed investor interest. Contineum's focus on developing therapies for unmet medical needs in the CNS space may have contributed to the positive reception of its public offering.

As Contineum Therapeutics transitions to a publicly-traded company, investors and industry observers will be closely watching its progress in advancing its clinical programs and potential impact on the treatment landscape for CNS disorders. The company's ability to leverage the capital raised through this IPO to achieve key milestones will be crucial in determining its long-term success and market position.
