Mirum Pharmaceuticals Announces Additional Private Placement Financing With TCGX

FOSTER CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mirum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: MIRM), a leading rare disease company, today announced that it has entered into a subscription agreement with entities associated with TCGX, an institutional investor, for a private placement of 1,000,000 shares of its common stock (the “Common Stock”). The Common Stock issued to the private placement investors at closing will be priced at $68.48 per share for approximately $68.5 million in gross proceeds.

The proceeds from the private placement, together with Mirum’s $200 million private placement announced earlier this month, are intended to fund clinical development and commercial activities following the previously announced proposed acquisition of Bluejay Therapeutics (“Bluejay”), a privately held biotechnology company focused on viral and liver diseases. Both private placements are expected to close concurrently with the proposed acquisition with Bluejay, anticipated in the first quarter of 2026, subject to regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions.

The offer and sale of the foregoing securities are being made in a transaction not involving a public offering and the securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may not be reoffered or resold in the United States except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Concurrently with the execution of the subscription agreement, Mirum and the investors entered into a registration rights agreement, which agreement will become effective upon the closing of the private placement, pursuant to which Mirum has agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering the resale of the shares of Common Stock sold in the private placement.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy these 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 the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
