Axogen

Specializes in peripheral nerve repair devices

Overview

Axogen develops and sells surgical solutions specifically for repairing peripheral nerve damage. The company’s products, such as the Avance Nerve Graft, work by using processed human donor tissue to bridge gaps in severed nerves, while its Axoguard line provides protective wraps and connectors to shield nerves during the healing process. Unlike traditional methods that require a second surgery to harvest a patient's own healthy nerve, Axogen provides ready-to-use grafts that eliminate additional surgical trauma and potential lasting damage at a donor site. The company's goal is to provide surgeons with a comprehensive platform of clinically proven tools to restore nerve function and improve the quality of life for patients with nerve injuries.

(AXGN) has filed with the SEC in the last 12 months is listed below, newest first, and each one links through to the document itself with the summary and the scores our analysis gives it. A 424B covers the supplement that carries the terms of a priced offering, so if you follow AXGN and want that one kind of document rather than the whole filing history, this is the page to keep. The company's other filings, of every form, are on the full AXGN filings page. 09/10/2026 04:56 PM Rhea-AI Summary Axogen, Inc. (AXGN) is conducting a primary offering of 4,910,000 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $42.50 per share, for gross proceeds of $208.7 million and estimated net proceeds of about $195.5 million after fees and expenses. Underwriters have a 30-day option to buy up to 736,500 additional shares. Shares outstanding will increase from 53,656,293 as of June 30, 2026 to 58,566,293 (or 59,302,793 if the option is fully exercised). The company plans to use substantially all net proceeds to fund the $200.0 million cash purchase of BioCircuit Technologies, Inc. and related costs, with any remainder for general corporate purposes; if the acquisition is not completed, all proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes. New investors face immediate dilution, as net tangible book value rises from $4.63 to $7.58 per share versus the $42.50 offering price. 01/23/2026 07:00 AM Rhea-AI Summary Axogen, Inc. is conducting a public offering of 4,000,000 shares of common stock at $31.00 per share, with underwriters holding a 30-day option to buy up to 600,000 additional shares. The company expects net proceeds of about $115.9 million (or $133.3 million if the option is fully exercised) and plans to use roughly $69.7 million to repay and terminate its Oberland credit facility, with the balance for working capital and capital spending. Axogen reports preliminary 2025 revenue of about $225.2 million, up roughly 20.2% year over year, and fourth-quarter revenue of about $59.9 million, up about 21.3%. Gross margin for 2025 and the fourth quarter is expected to be above 74%, including approximately $1.9 million in largely non-cash one-time costs tied to FDA approval milestones. On December 3, 2025, the FDA approved Axogen's Biologics License Application for Avance, an acellular nerve scaffold for specific sensory, mixed, and motor nerve indications, with certain uses granted under the accelerated approval pathway and subject to a confirmatory post-marketing study. 01/21/2026 04:59 PM Rhea-AI Summary Axogen is offering $85 million of common stock in a primary equity raise. The company has also granted underwriters a 30-day option to buy up to an additional $12.75 million of shares. Axogen currently intends to use a significant portion of the net proceeds to make an early payoff of its Oberland credit facility, with a final repayment amount expected to be approximately $69.7 million, which would terminate all obligations under that debt. Alongside the financing, Axogen outlines strong preliminary 2025 results, with expected revenue of about $59.9 million for the fourth quarter and $225.2 million for the full year, increases of 21.3% and 20.2% versus 2024. Gross margin for 2025 is expected to be above 74%, despite about $1.9 million of one-time costs tied to FDA approval of its Avance biologic. The company ended 2025 with approximately $45.5 million in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments, up about $6.0 million from a year earlier. The FDA approved Axogen's Biologics License Application for Avance in December 2025, granting full approval for certain sensory nerve indications and accelerated approval for longer sensory and mixed and motor nerve repairs, subject to a confirmatory post-marketing study running through 2030 with a final report due in 2031.

Axogen prices $208.7 million stock offering to fund BioCircuit acquisition.

Axogen prices $208.7 million stock offering to fund BioCircuit acquisition. September 10, 2026 Axogen Inc. has priced an underwritten public offering of 4.91 million shares of common stock at $42.50 per share, seeking approximately $208.7 million in gross proceeds primarily to finance its previously announced acquisition of BioCircuit Technologies Inc. The peripheral nerve repair company, which is based in Alachua and Tampa, Florida, and trades on Nasdaq under the ticker AXGN, is selling all of the shares in the offering. The $208.7 million figure is before underwriting discounts, commissions and other offering expenses and assumes the underwriters do not exercise their option to purchase additional shares. Axogen has granted the underwriters a 30-day option to acquire up to another 736,500 shares at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The transaction is expected to close Sept. 11, subject to customary closing conditions. Substantially all of the net proceeds are expected to fund the cash consideration for Axogen's acquisition of BioCircuit Technologies and related transaction fees and expenses. Any remaining capital would be available for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures. The equity raise provides Axogen with a direct financing path for the BioCircuit transaction while preserving flexibility if the acquisition does not close. The stock offering is not contingent on completion of the acquisition. If the BioCircuit deal is not consummated, Axogen plans to redirect the proceeds toward general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital spending. BofA Securities, Jefferies and Wells Fargo Securities are serving as lead book-running managers for the offering. Mizuho Securities USA is also acting as a bookrunner, while Lake Street Capital Markets is serving as co-manager. The financing comes as Axogen continues to build its business around surgical products for peripheral nerve repair and regeneration. The company develops and commercializes technologies intended to help surgeons restore peripheral nerve function following traumatic injuries and surgical procedures. Peripheral nerves carry motor and sensory signals throughout the body, making effective repair important when nerves are damaged or cannot be properly reconnected. Such injuries can result in loss of muscle or organ function, diminished sensation or pain, creating a specialized clinical market for nerve reconstruction and protection technologies. Axogen's existing portfolio includes Avance, an acellular nerve allograft, as well as Avance Nerve Graft, Axoguard Nerve Connector, Axoguard Nerve Protector, Axoguard HA+ Nerve Protector, Axoguard Nerve Cap and Avive+ Soft Tissue Matrix. The products address different aspects of peripheral nerve repair and surgical management. The proposed financing effectively links Axogen's capital markets activity with its acquisition strategy. By raising equity to cover substantially all of the cash consideration and associated costs for BioCircuit, the company is positioning itself to complete the transaction without making the offering dependent on the acquisition's closing. The offering is being conducted under Axogen's effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Jan. 21, 2026. The company said it will file a final prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus with the SEC containing additional information about the transaction. The final size of the capital raise could increase if the underwriters exercise some or all of their option for the additional 736,500 shares. For Axogen, the offering provides capital for the BioCircuit acquisition while also creating a potential source of additional working capital and investment capacity as it continues to commercialize its peripheral nerve repair portfolio.
