WILMINGTON, Del., May 17, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Prelude Therapeutics Incorporated (“Prelude” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: PRLD), a clinical-stage precision oncology company, today announced that it has commenced an underwritten public offering of $100.0 million of shares of common stock and, in lieu of common stock to investors that so choose, pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of common stock. All of the shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants are being offered by Prelude. In addition, Prelude has granted the underwriter a 30-day option to purchase additional shares of its common stock in an amount equal to 15% of the securities offered in the public offering.

Morgan Stanley is acting as sole book-running manager for the offering. The proposed offering is subject to market and other conditions, and there can be no assurance as to whether or when the offering may be completed, or as to the actual size or terms of the offering.

Prelude intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, together with its existing cash and cash equivalents, to advance its current clinical pipeline, including PRT2527, PRT1419, PRT3645 and PRT3789; advance its research and discovery efforts including its efforts for a new SMARCA2 oral molecule; and support organizational growth and for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

A registration statement on Form S-3 relating to these securities was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 12, 2021, and was declared effective by the SEC on November 24, 2021. The offering is being made only by means of a preliminary prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus which will be filed with the SEC relating to and describing the terms of the proposed offering and will be available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. You can also obtain the prospectus, when available, by contacting Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, 180 Varick St, 2nd Floor, New York, NY 10014. The final terms of the offering will be disclosed in a final prospectus supplement to be filed with the SEC.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy these securities, nor shall there be any offer or sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
