Living Cell Technologies has closed its IPO after raising AUD$6.36 million from institutional and retail clients of underwriting stockbroker Taylor Collinson.
The company is expected to move from the Newcastle stock exchange (NSX) to the ASX on September 1, and has been suspended from trading on the NSX in preparation.
"LCT is a unique biotechnology company with an international infrastructure, significant scientific and commercial potential and a clear path to market.
