Abzena recently announced a placing of £25m gross (issuing 75.8m new shares at 33p) to expand its service offering, capacity and capabilities. Importantly, we expect this fund-raising to take Abzena to profitability, which will be a significant milestone for the company. We have increased our valuation to £132m (vs £105m), primarily due to the increase in forecast service revenues, improved gross margin and cash position.
