An announcement from Burcon Nutrascience ( (TSE:BU) ) is now available.
Burcon NutraScience has closed the first tranche of a non-brokered private placement of unsecured convertible debentures, raising $1.25 million from its manufacturing partner owners as part of a financing of up to $6.3 million that has conditional approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange. Insiders and the company’s manufacturing partner owners have committed to invest at least $5 million, with a second and final tranche expected to close after disinterested shareholder approval at a special meeting in February 2026; the debentures carry 15% annual interest, a four-year term, and are convertible into common shares or pre-funded warrants at $1.60, a structure that strengthens Burcon’s balance sheet to support scaling production and ingredient sales while potentially increasing insider ownership above 20%.
The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:BU) stock is a Hold with a C$1.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Burcon Nutrascience stock, see the TSE:BU Stock Forecast page.
