SOPHIA ANTIPOLIS, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:



Median Technologies (FR0011049824, ALMDT, PEA-PME scheme eligible, “Median” or the “Company”), developer of eyonis®, a suite of artificial intelligence (AI) powered Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) for early cancer diagnosis, and a leading provider of AI-based image analyses and central imaging services for oncology clinical trials in the biopharmaceutical industry, today announces the success of its upsized capital increase without shareholders’ preferential subscription rights, by way of an issuance of new ordinary shares (the “New Shares”). The New Shares were offered in the framework of (i) a public offering in France and a global placement to certain qualified investors for an amount of €40 million and (ii) an offering reserved to Katarina Martinson AB, Venture S.a.r.l, and Nordica Life (Bermuda) Ltd (the “Guarantors”) for an amount of €10 million

The Offering (as such term is defined below), launched on May 27, 2026, amounted to a total gross proceed of €50 million, including the issuance premium. The initial capital increase of €40 million capital increase was multiple times oversubscribed, demonstrating strong market support. The Offering attracted strong demand from both existing and new institutional investors across Europe, the United States and the United Kingdom, alongside significant participation from retail investors. Given the level of oversubscription recorded, the Reserved Offering to the Guarantors for a maximum amount of € 10 million was fully implemented, bringing the total amount of the transaction to € 50 million.

“On behalf of Median Technologies, I would like to thank all investors—both institutional and retail—for their participation in this capital increase and their confidence in our vision and strategy. This transaction has enabled us to further diversify and strengthen our shareholder base with leading institutional investors from Europe, the United States, and the United Kingdom. We are also grateful for the continued support of Lion Point Capital, which joined Median in 2025, as well as the Guarantors, whose commitment contributed significantly to the success of this transaction,” said Fredrik Brag, CEO and Founder of Median Technologies.

“With this financing, Median Technologies believes that it is well positioned to execute its strategic roadmap. The proceeds provide funding visibility into the first half of 2028 and could extend through mid-2029 upon the full exercise of the warrants issued in 2025 and still outstanding,” Fredrik Brag added.

“Our priorities are clear: the commercial deployment of eyonis® LCS in the United States, its commercial launch in Europe following the expected CE marking in the coming weeks, and the expansion of our eyonis® platform into additional cancer indications. We believe early cancer diagnosis is a significant opportunity to improve patient outcomes while helping healthcare systems address the growing burden of cancer. This financing provides the resources to accelerate that mission and create long-term value for patients, healthcare providers, and shareholders alike,” concluded Fredrik Brag.

Financial intermediaries

TD Cowen and Stifel Europe Securities SAS acted as Joint Global Coordinators and Joint Placement Agents for the Offering (together, the “Placement Agents”). The Offering was subject to a placement agreement between the Company and the Placement Agents, which was entered into on June 3, 2026 (the “Placement Agreement”).

Lock-up and undertakings

The Company has entered into a lock-up undertaking for a period of 90 days following the date of the settlement and delivery of the Offering, subject to certain customary exceptions.

The members of the Company’s Board of Directors and Executive Committee, including the Chief Executive Officer, have undertaken to retain the Company’s shares that they hold for a period of 90 days from the settlement-delivery date of the Offering, subject to certain customary exceptions. Lion Point Capital has also undertaken not to dispose of the shares it holds for a period of 90 days as from the settlement-delivery date of the Offering, subject to certain customary exceptions.

Eligibility of the Offering for PEA / PEA-PME schemes and the regime under Article 150-0 B ter of the French Tax Code, CGI, relating to the reinvestment of capital gains

Shares of Median Technologies are fully eligible for inclusion in share savings plans, or PEA, and PEA-PME accounts, which benefit from the same tax advantages as the standard PEA.

In the event of a contribution of securities to a company controlled by the contributor, the capital gain is placed under tax deferral pursuant to Article 150-0 B ter of the French Tax Code. The sale, within three years, of the contributed securities results in the termination of this tax deferral, unless the Company undertakes to reinvest 60% of the proceeds from the sale in an economic activity within two years of the sale. The sale proceeds may notably be invested in the cash subscription to the initial share capital or to a capital increase of one or more companies that meet the conditions provided for in Article 150-0 B ter of the French Tax Code. In this respect, the Offering constitutes an eligible reinvestment for maintaining the deferral of the capital gain on the contribution, with respect to the nature of the reinvestment.

The other conditions for application of the regime that are independent of the Company, including the reinvestment period and threshold, the holding of the new securities, and other applicable requirements, must also be complied with by the subscriber. Investors who may be eligible for this regime are invited to consult their usual tax adviser in order to assess their personal situation in light of the specific applicable regulations.

Risk factors

The main risk factors relating specifically to the Offering are set out below:

  • Shareholders not participating in the Offering will see their shareholding in the Company diluted by the issuance of the New Shares, and would see their shareholding diluted by any future capital increases made necessary by the Company’s ongoing openness to fundraising;
  • The market price of the Company’s shares may fluctuate and fall below the subscription price of the New Shares;
  • The volatility and liquidity of the Company’s shares may fluctuate significantly;
  • The other risk factors relating to the Company and its activities set out in the section “P Specific risk factors” of its 2025 annual financial report and of the information document, available on the Company’s website.
