Item 1.01.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 22, 2017, Penumbra, Inc. (the “Company”) issued and sold an aggregate of 1,495,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), pursuant to an underwriting agreement dated March 16, 2017 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) by and among the Company and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”). The Shares include the full exercise of the Underwriters’ option to purchase an additional 195,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement. The Shares were sold in a public offering (the “Offering”) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-216678) (the “Registration Statement”) and a related prospectus and prospectus supplement, in each case filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company received net proceeds from the Offering of approximately $106.8 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and before estimated offering expenses. The description of the Underwriting Agreement set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
Certain of the Underwriters or their affiliates have provided us in the past, and currently provide us, with commercial banking services, for which they have received customary compensation.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes, including working capital, continued development of its products, including research and development and clinical trials, potential acquisitions and other business opportunities. Pending the use of the net proceeds from the Offering, the Company intends to invest the net proceeds in investment grade, interest bearing securities.
A copy of the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP relating to the validity of the Shares is filed as Exhibit 5.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement.
