Analysis · BIVI · Life Sciences
The latest S-1 amendment from BioVie cuts the best-efforts offering from up to $75 million to $25 million while raising the assumed price from $1.33 to $1.56 per share. With only $9 million in cash and a going concern warning, the company may find this smaller raise insufficient to fully fund operations. The higher price reduces dilution but also signals weaker demand or a strategic pivot to a more achievable financing.
