WATERTOWN, Mass., June 22, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Disc Medicine, Inc. (NASDAQ: IRON) (Disc), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel treatments for patients suffering from serious hematologic diseases, today announced the closing of its underwritten public offering of 3,015,919 shares of its common stock and, in lieu of common stock to certain investors that so chose, pre-funded warrants to purchase 204,081 shares of its common stock. The shares of common stock sold include 420,000 shares pursuant to the option granted by Disc to the underwriters, which option was exercised in full. The shares of common stock were sold at a public offering price of $49.00 per share, and the pre-funded warrants were sold at a public offering price of $48.9999 per pre-funded warrant, which represents the per share public offering price for the common stock less the $0.0001 per share exercise price for each such pre-funded warrant.
