To secure clinical development expenses, preclinical pipeline development expenses, discovery and research expenses for development compounds, and working capital. The Company explains that it will secure the funds necessary for research and development and business operations within a relatively short period and with a high degree of certainty, and achieve financing that comprehensively considers its financial position, funding needs, and the impact of dilution on existing shareholders by combining an increase in equity capital with funds raised through convertible bonds.
