Imago BioSciences, Inc. (“Imago”), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company discovering new medicines for the treatment of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), today announced that it has commenced an underwritten initial public offering of up to 7,000,000 shares of its common stock. All of the shares to be sold in the offering will be offered by Imago. In addition, Imago expects to grant the underwriters for the offering a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,050,000 shares of common stock at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The offering is subject to market and other conditions, and there can be no assurance as to whether or when the offering may be completed, or as to the actual size or terms of the offering.

Imago currently expects to use the net proceeds from this offering to fund the clinical development of bomedemstat for essential thrombocythemia through the completion of both the ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial and the planned Phase 3 clinical trial, clinical development of bomedemstat for myelofibrosis through the completion of both the ongoing and planned Phase 2 clinical trials, cGMP process development for bomedemstat, development of bomedemstat for additional indications, and for the development of additional pipeline candidates, internal research, and any remaining amounts for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Jefferies, Cowen, Stifel and Guggenheim Securities are acting as joint book-running managers for the offering.
