Biotech company Living Cell Technologies (LCT) has launched a $2.5 million capital raise with Alignment Capital to develop its NTCELL project

Three distinct funding initiatives are part of the raise: a placement for $750,000, a non-renounceable rights issue entitlement offer and a shortfall offer by way of prospectus for $1.2 million, and a post-rights issue over-allotment offer to raise an additional $562,500.

New shares to be issued under the capital raise will each be priced at 0.75 cents — a 25 per cent discount to LCT’s last closing price of a cent.

Participants in the placement, rights issue, and over-allotment will receive on new option for every two shares subscribed for, exercisable at 1.2 cents on March 31, 2026.

LCT plans to use the funds to further develop its NTCELL project and conduct a third clinical trial for Parkinson’s disease, to fund assessments of corporate development opportunities regarding additional projects, and to provide for general working capital.

Living Cell Technologies shares were down 5.26. per cent to 0.9 cents at 11:35 am AEDT.
