Analysis · TYRA · Life Sciences
Having fully drawn down its existing $150 million at-the-market facility, Tyra Biosciences is reloading with an additional $100 million in capacity, bringing the total program to $250 million. The company raised $147.9 million from the ATM in Q1 alone, extending its cash runway into the second half of 2028, and held $353.9 million in cash as of Q2 2026. While the upsizing provides continued funding flexibility for its clinical pipeline, the steady drip of shares into the market creates an overhang that could pressure the stock, especially with the share price near $31.
