The UK firm pointed out the figures are based on Harpoon’s amended registration statement, filed with the US Securities and Exchange, which discloses an expected pricing range for the proposed offering of US$13.00–US$15.00 per share.
It noted that the proposed maximum aggregate offering amount specified in the filing is US$93.15mln, which assumes that the public offering price is at the top of the expected pricing range and includes the option that is proposed to be granted to the underwriters to purchase additional shares of common stock.
