Catalyst Pharmaceutical Partners, Inc. (CPRX: Quote) said Thursday that it has priced an underwritten offering of 6 million units, with each unit consisting of one share of its common stock and a warrant to purchase up to one share of its common stock, at a public offering price of $0.80 per unit.

Catalyst expects to receive net proceeds of about $4.0 million, not including any cash proceeds from a future exercise of the warrants, after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses. The warrants will have a 5-year term and an exercise price equal to $1.04 per share.

The offering is expected to close on May 30.

The proceeds of this offering will be used: to fund the activities necessary to support the submission of an NDA for CPP-109 for FDA approval and to begin to prepare for the commercial launch of CPP-109, assuming that the data from the currently ongoing Phase II(b) trial are compelling and the FDA accepts an NDA submitted by Catalyst for CPP-109 based on the data from the Phase II(b) trial; to manufacture sufficient CPP-115 for use in one or more future safety and/or proof-of-concept studies of CPP-115; and for general corporate purposes.

Stocks moved sharply higher over the course of the trading day on Friday, more than offsetting the weakness seen on Thursday. In a reversal from the previous session, the markets benefited from some upbeat U.S. economic data as well as comments from a Federal Reserve official. The major averages saw further upside going into the close, with the Dow and the S&P 500 reaching new record highs. As the IRS targeting scandal continues to make headlines, animal-protection charity People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA, claims that conservative groups are not the only ones that have faced increased scrutiny from the agency. While the IRS targeting scandal has taken center stage on Capitol Hill on Friday, the results of a new Gallup poll showed that the American public's interest in the story is comparatively low based on historical measures. The poll showed that 54 percent of Americans are following the news that the IRS targeted conservative groups for greater scrutiny "very" or "somewhat" closely.
