RANCHO CORDOVA, Calif., March 13, 2017 -- Cesca Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ:KOOL), a market leader in automated cell processing and point-of-care autologous cell-based therapies, today announced that it has closed a revolving line of credit (“RLOC”) with Boyalife Investment Fund II, Inc. The non-collaterized RLOC is for a term of five years and is generally drawable at Cesca’s discretion. Boyalife Investment Fund II, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Boyalife Group Inc., which is company owned and controlled by the Company’s Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. Cesca also announced that it has set-up a wholly-owned subsidiary, ThermoGenesis Corp, to separately own and operate, and thereby strengthen its device business. The clinical development activities will remain with Cesca, the parent company.
“This RLOC with Boyalife gives us the financial resources to offer our expanding product pipeline to new and existing customers in the U.S. and international markets without having to dilute the Company’s stockholders at current market price” said Chris Xu, Cesca’s interim Chief Executive Officer, “Automation in cellular processing and point-of-care therapies is the core business for ThermoGenesis. Setting up the device division in in its own entity is intended to enable Cesca to more effectively manage the device business’s performance and growth strategy.
