In total, Evaxion has raised $7.2 million in recent weeks, with $4.5 million coming from sale of shares in an at-the-market (ATM) offering and $2.7 million coming from exercise of investor warrants.

The proceeds strengthens both Evaxion’s cash position and equity and follows the influx of $7.5 million paid by MSD (tradename of Merck & Co., Inc., Rahway, NJ, USA) when licensing vaccine candidate EVX-B3 in September 2025.

"We are pleased to have bolstered our cash position thereby extending our runway into the second half of 2027, allowing us to fully focus on executing on our strategy and plans," says Thomas Schmidt, CFO of Evaxion.

The recent exercises of investor warrants have reduced the number of outstanding warrants to purchase Evaxion ADSs by 1.0 million. The total number of outstanding warrants is now 2.8 million, including employee warrants, with a weighted average exercise price of $10.94.

Evaxion expects to accumulate an operational cash spend of $14 million in 2025. By the end of the second quarter 2025, Evaxion had cash at hand of $14.7 million. We have since had a gross inflow of cash of $14.7 million as mentioned above.

Evaxion had debt of $9.2 million by the end of the second quarter 2025. The debt was reduced by $4.1 million through a debt-to-equity conversion agreement with the European Investment Bank in July 2025, also bolstering Evaxion’s equity.
