NEWS RELEASE
BIOLASE TO RAISE $10 MILLION FROM INSTITUTIONAL AND INDIVIDUAL
INVESTORS IN CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED PRIVATE PLACEMENT
IRVINE, Calif.—August 1, 2016—BIOLASE, Inc. (NASDAQ:BIOL), the global leader in dental lasers, announced today that investors including the Jack W. Schuler Living Trust, Oracle Partners, L.P. and Oracle Institutional Partners L.P., and certain BIOLASE directors and officers, have agreed to purchase $10 million of unregistered shares of the Company’s convertible preferred stock, and related warrants to purchase unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock, in a private placement transaction.
Under the terms of the private placement, BIOLASE has agreed to sell an aggregate of 88,494 shares of its convertible preferred stock at a per share price of $113.00, and each share of preferred stock will initially be convertible into 100 shares of BIOLASE common stock, reflecting a conversion price equal to $1.13 per share, which is the closing price of BIOLASE common stock quoted on NASDAQ on July 29, 2016. In addition, the investors will receive warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,035,398 shares of BIOLASE common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. The warrants become exercisable on February 8, 2017, six months after the closing of the private placement, and have a term of five years from the date of issuance.
The closing of the transaction is expected to occur on August 8, 2016, subject to customary closing conditions. The proceeds will be used for working capital, including but not limited to new product development, launch and subsequent scale-up, as well as general corporate purposes.
Following the closing, BIOLASE will be required to hold a meeting of its stockholders in order to, among other things, satisfy NASDAQ requirements with respect to the issuance of BIOLASE common stock upon conversion of the convertible preferred stock and exercise of the warrants. The conversion of the preferred stock will occur automatically upon receipt of such stockholder approval. In addition, BIOLASE agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file, within 30 days following receipt of the stockholder approval, a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the resale of the shares of common stock underlying the preferred stock and warrants.
Paul N. Clark, Chairman of the Board of Directors of BIOLASE, said, “We appreciate the enthusiastic interest and strong support of both existing and new investors at this very exciting time for BIOLASE, and we expect the proceeds raised to fuel the Company’s growth and innovation efforts.”
Harold C. Flynn, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of BIOLASE, said, “We are pleased that these investors, including our largest shareholders, have demonstrated through this investment their confidence in our strategic and operating plans and recognized BIOLASE’s progress toward our goals and objectives. There is still significant work to do to realize the full potential of our technologies and to make laser dentistry the standard of care. With this new funding, we believe we are well positioned to accelerate growth and achieve improved financial performance and positive cash flows.”
BIOLASE will be releasing its 2016 second quarter and six-month results this morning, August 1, 2016, before the market opens instead of after the close of the market as previously announced;
however, its conference call to discuss those results will still be held at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time today.
