Gibt ja ganz schön Gas heute. Respekt.

Organovo hat zur Zeit noch Monopolstellung an der Börse im 3D- Bioprinting- Bereich

In den anderen Bereichen kommen so langsam die Mitbewerber an die Börse. Z.B Exone

Organovo Holdings, Inc. announces redemption of 2.9 million outstanding warrants
SAN DIEGO, Feb. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --Organovo Holdings, Inc.(OTCQX: ONVO) ("Organovo"), a creator and manufacturer of functional, three-dimensional human tissues for medical research and therapeutic applications, today announced its intention to redeem two classes of outstanding warrants initially issued to investors participating in private placement financings in 2011 and 2012. The warrant redemption will raise non-dilutive capital, enable Organovo to significantly improve its balance sheet, help position the Company to qualify to list its common stock on the NYSE MKT or NASDAQ exchange, and decrease a significant portion of the derivative liability from its balance sheet.

A Notice of Redemption was mailed to affected warrant holders on February 5, 2013. These warrant holders will have until 5:00 p.m. ET on March 14, 2013, to exercise their outstanding warrants at $1.00 per share. Thereafter, any warrants that remain unexercised will automatically be redeemed by the company at a redemption price of $0.0001 per share of common stock then issuable upon exercise of the redeemed warrant. Approximately 2.9 million warrant shares are affected by this Notice of Redemption.

Previously, on December 21, 2012, the Company completed a tender offer including the same warrants. At that time, approximately two-thirds of warrant holders elected to participate in the tender offer and exercised their warrants at $0.80 per share. The current Notice of Redemption was given to the remaining warrant holders at the Company's option following the qualifying event of its common stock trading at $2.50 per share or higher for twenty (20) consecutive trading days. If all warrant holders elect to exercise their warrants prior to the redemption date, approximately $2.9 million of additional equity capital will be raised by the Company without any increase to its fully diluted shares. If none of the warrant holders exercise their warrants prior to the redemption date the Company will redeem and cancel all affected warrants at an aggregate cost of approximately $293.

Approximately 16.7 million warrants were originally issued as part of a first quarter 2012 private placement in which the Company raised $15.2 million. Prior to this Notice of Redemption approximately 13.8 million shares had been exercised. This included 9.5 million shares as a part of Organovo's tender offer which closed Dec. 21, 2012, the shares resulting from which were able to be sold starting Jan. 4, 2013. In addition, approximately 1.6 million placement agent warrant shares had been exercised or cancelled. Following the warrant redemption, warrants to purchase 4.5 million shares will remain outstanding and are not affected by the redemption notice. These warrants were issued to the placement agent during the 2011 and 2012 private placement financings.

Keith Murphy, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented "Organovo has made great progress in executing on its plan to remove warrant overhang on our stock and decrease derivative liability from our balance sheet, as part of a larger goal to pursue a senior listing. We appreciated the positive response of investors to our closing of the Warrant tender offer on Dec. 21, and hope to find continued support for this Notice of Redemption, which we believe paves the way for the continued creation of shareholder value."

Zitat von binda: http://seekingalpha.com/article/1143421-organovo-s-new-partn…

"Instead of selling bioprinters to just anyone, ONVO is strategically associating with educational institutions, like Knight Cancer Institute, or drug developers, such as the collaboration with United Therapeutics (UTHR), that will utilize the NovoGen MMX in a potential drug discovery process. In case of a breakthrough or a successful product that is commercialized, ONVO would receive sales-based royalties due to their contribution with NovoGen MMX. If applicable, this could add, yet again, additional revenue streams for ONVO on top of the payments originally negotiated."

"Organovo's strategy to include royalty clauses in their collaborations has the potential for great success by letting others use the bioprinting platform while limiting the downside risk. Regardless of the study's outcome, ONVO will receive the negotiated payments. If successful, however, vast royalty payments from commercialized products (potential new cancer treatment in this case) will propel the company to new heights. With such a tactic, Organovo takes the position of a broker, with limited risk standpoint yet infinite profit potentials."


Schöne Aussichten. Organovo takes the position of a broker

Geht voran!!



SAN DIEGO, Jan. 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Organovo Holdings, Inc. (OTCQX: ONVO) ("Organovo"), a creator and manufacturer of functional, three-dimensional human tissues for medical research and therapeutic applications, and the Knight Cancer Institute at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU), a national leader in translational oncology research, have formed a collaboration to develop more clinically predictive in vitro three dimensional cancer models which will ultimately advance discovery of novel cancer therapeutics. New biological models that more accurately replicate human cancer and malignant disease are desperately needed to enhance our understanding of how cancer develops and migrates and to deliver better oncology therapies for patients.

"The OHSU Knight Cancer Institute is consistently on the leading edge of cancer research, delivering true therapeutic breakthroughs like Gleevec," said Keith Murphy, chairman and chief executive officer at Organovo. "The knowledge and experience of the team at OHSU will be critical as we work together to create advanced models of cancer and metastasis that more reliably predict the safety and effectiveness of new therapeutics."

Today, animal models and cancer cell lines are used to identify and test potential drug candidates, but these tools have known limitations in their ability to predict clinical outcomes. More accurate and representative human disease models have the potential to improve drug discovery and development for a number of diseases, including cancer. By applying breakthrough bioprinting technology, Organovo develops three-dimensional, architecturally correct, human disease models to improve the understanding of drug toxicity and efficacy earlier in the drug development process, enabling safer, more effective therapies.

"A major challenge in oncology research today is that animal models cannot accurately represent human physiology, and cell lines do not provide information on how cells act in a three-dimensional, native architecture," said renowned cancer researcher Joe W. Gray, Ph.D., director of the OHSU Center for Spatial Systems Biomedicine (OCSSB), Gordon Moore chair of Biomedical Engineering in the OHSU School of Medicine and associate director for translational research for the OHSU Knight Cancer Institute. "Using Organovo's bioprinting technologies, we plan to create new models to understand cancer disease mechanisms and metastatic progression, which can be used to discover and test new targeted therapies."

OHSU Knight Cancer Institute Director Brian Druker, M.D., added, "Better research models lead to a deeper understanding of disease mechanisms and more accurate information in the preclinical drug discovery and development process.

We believe new technologies, like bioprinting, are important for producing more relevant models of cancer and metastasis to ultimately support the discovery of new therapeutics."

About the OHSU Knight Cancer Institute
The Knight Cancer Institute at Oregon Health & Science University is a pioneer in personalized cancer medicine. The institute's director, Brian Druker, M.D., helped prove it was possible to shut down cells that enable cancer to grow without harming healthy ones. This breakthrough has helped make once-fatal forms of the disease manageable and ushered in a new generation of targeted cancer therapies. The OHSU Knight Cancer Institute is the only National Cancer Institute-designated Cancer Center between Sacramento and Seattle—an honor earned only by the nation's top cancer centers. It offers the latest treatments and technologies as well as hundreds of research studies and clinical trials. For more information, visit www.ohsu.edu/knight-cancer-institute
