Comment from Charlotte Fribert, CEO
We are very pleased with the good outcome of the exercise of the warrants of series TO4. We see the extent of participation as proof of a high level of confidence in the Company. With the capital raised, we strengthen the financial base for the continued development of TOL2, a new unique treatment for patients with myasthenia gravis. I would like to extend a big thank you to existing and new shareholders in Toleranzia who participated in the warrant program for their willingness to join the company's exciting journey towards its first drug in the field of rare autoimmune diseases.
