On the heels of U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval of the over-the-counter sale of its OraQuick HIV test, OraSure Technologies Inc. of Bethlehem said it has proposed a public stock offering of up to $75 million.
Citigroup and Jefferies Capital Partners are acting as joint book-running managers.
Canaccord Genuity, Stephens Inc., ThinkEquity LLC and JMP Securities are acting as co-managers. The company expects to grant the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 15 percent of the shares of common stock offered in the public offering.
OraSure stressed that the offering is subject to market conditions, and there can be no assurance as to whether or when the offering may be completed, or as to the final size or terms of the offering.
