Proceeds Support the Completion of Three Global Phase 3 Registrational Trials for Posoleucel and Global Regulatory Filings

AlloVir, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALVR), a late clinical-stage allogeneic T-cell immunotherapy company, today announced that it has entered into a securities purchase agreement with a group of institutional and strategic investors to sell 27,458,095 shares of common stock (the “Shares”) in a registered direct offering at a purchase price of $4.61 per share. Gross proceeds from the offering will equal approximately $126.6 million. The offering is expected to close on or about July 28, 2022, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

"We are thrilled with the quality of the new and existing long-term investors who through this financing continue to support the acceleration of AlloVir’s highly innovative multi-virus specific T-cell therapy platform and the advancement of our lead cell therapy candidate, posoleucel. The additional proceeds will enable the completion of our three ongoing global Phase 3 registrational trials of posoleucel for the treatment and prevention of serious and life-threatening infections caused by six devastating viruses in immunocompromised patients,” said Diana Brainard, M.D., Chief Executive Officer, AlloVir.

AlloVir intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, together with existing cash, cash equivalents and investments, to complete enrollment and achieve data readouts in all three of the Company’s ongoing Phase 3 trials of its lead multi-virus specific T-cell therapy candidate, posoleucel, for the continued advancement of manufacturing processes to support regulatory submissions, for other research and development activities for its product candidates, and for general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2022, AlloVir’s cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments equaled $172.7 million.

The Shares were offered pursuant to a shelf registration statement that was previously filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 6, 2021 (File No. 333-258539), as amended and declared effective by the SEC on February 28, 2022. A final prospectus supplement containing additional information relating to the offering, will be filed with the SEC and will be available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Shares, nor shall there be any sale of the Shares in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
