Biotech Company Gets Cash Infusion
- Share via
Cortex Pharmaceuticals Inc. recently got more of what the typical biotech company is looking for: money.
The Irvine developer of drugs to treat mental disorders raised $4 million in private equity capital from institutional investors. The infusion enabled the company to post a cash balance of about $7.5 million for its fiscal year ended June 30, said officials.
And the amount should be sufficient to carry the company at least until the end of calendar 1998, officials said.
