NewcelX ( (NCEL) ) has provided an update.

On April 1, 2026, Zurich-based NewcelX Ltd. announced it had entered into definitive securities purchase agreements for a $1.35 million private placement priced at $2.75 per share, a 30% premium to its March 31 closing price. The deal covers 490,907 common shares or equivalents and five-year warrants for up to 687,270 shares at $3.025, with participation from existing investors and an expected closing around April 15, 2026.

NewcelX plans to combine the net proceeds from this financing with its previously announced $25 million equity line to fund development of NCEL-101, its lead Type 1 Diabetes program in collaboration with Eledon Pharmaceuticals, as well as its broader pipeline and general corporate purposes. The structure of the deal, including a 60-day restriction on additional equity issuance and a commitment to register the resale of the securities, underscores investor confidence in the company’s strategy and provides incremental runway in a challenging biotech capital market.
