Avinger Closes $14.4 Million Bought Deal Offering of Common Stock

REDWOOD CITY, CA / ACCESSWIRE / February 2, 2021 / Avinger, Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGR) (the "Company"), a commercial-stage medical device company marketing the first and only intravascular image-guided, catheter-based system for diagnosis and treatment of Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD), today announced the closing of an underwritten offering of 10,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company, at a price to the public of $1.44 per share.

Aegis Capital Corp. is acting as the sole book-running manager for the offering.

The gross proceeds of the offering were approximately $14.4 million, prior to deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include research and development of the Company's Lumivascular platform products, preclinical and clinical trials and studies, regulatory submissions, expansion of sales and marketing organizations and efforts, intellectual property protection and enforcement and capital expenditures. The Company has not yet determined the amount of net proceeds to be used specifically for any particular purpose or the timing of these expenditures. The Company may use a portion of the net proceeds to acquire complementary products, technologies or businesses or to repay principal on its debt; however, the Company currently has no binding agreements or commitments to complete any such transactions or to make any such principal repayments from the proceeds of this offering, although the Company does look for such acquisition opportunities.

The shares were offered pursuant to a shelf registration statement previously filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). A prospectus supplement and accompanying base prospectus relating to the offering were filed with the SEC and are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. A copy of the prospectus supplement and accompanying base prospectus relating to the offering may be obtained by contacting Aegis Capital Corp., Attention: Prospectus Department, 810 7th Avenue, 18th floor, New York, NY 10019, by email at syndicate@aegiscap.com, or by telephone at (212) 813-1010.This press release does not and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction. Any offer, if at all, will be made only by means of a prospectus, including a prospectus supplement, forming a part of the effective registration statement.
