This Free Writing Prospectus (FWP) details the addition of pre-funded warrants as an option for investors in Xenon Pharmaceuticals' previously announced $500 million underwritten public offering. While the offering itself is dilutive, the inclusion of pre-funded warrants provides an alternative investment vehicle, potentially appealing to investors with ownership limitations. This move follows recent positive Phase 3 clinical trial results, indicating the company is capitalizing on its success to fund ongoing clinical development and pre-commercial activities. Investors should note the immediate and substantial dilution associated with the offering, as highlighted in the filing.
