BioSig Technologies Closes Private Placement
Company Receives Additional Capital for Commercialization Efforts
Santa Monica, CA, Aug. 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioSig Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: BSGM), a medical device company developing a proprietary biomedical signal processing platform designed to address an unmet technology need for the $4.6 billion electrophysiology (EP) marketplace, today announced that the Company has received final proceeds from an oversubscribed capital raise, totaling approximately $6,000,000.
Earlier this week the Company announced that it had secured $4,281,000 in financing. The Company has accepted additional funds from existing shareholders, as well as additional option and warrant exercises. The private placement officially closed as of today. BioSig has now raised approximately $12.5 million in 2018 and received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its PURE EP System.
“The oversubscription of funds positions the company well for our strategic growth plan,” commented Kenneth L. Londoner, Chairman and CEO of BioSig Technologies, Inc. “In addition to strengthening our balance sheet, the finances will assist in moving through the Nasdaq listing process we began in July, while also providing us with capital to commercialize and launch our PURE EP System that recently received 510(k) FDA clearance.”
