SciSparc Ltd. (SPRC) on Wednesday said that its majority-owned unit, NeuroThera Labs Inc., signed a binding term sheet to acquire a treasury of patents, trademarks, and intellectual property rights for innovative endoscopic systems and medical cameras from Xylo Technologies Ltd.
Shares of the company jumped as much as 34% in the pre-market session at the time of writing.
The company said it is also acquiring intellectual property rights to the MUSE system, a single-use, innovative endoscopic device designed for a minimally invasive procedure to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). According to SciSparc, the GERD device market is projected to reach $3.03 billion by 2030 from about $2.5 billion in 2024.
In return, SciSparc shall issue to Xylo an amount of ordinary shares of the company. The number of shares issued would be 19.99% of SciSparc's issued and outstanding share capital as of the transaction's closing date, the company said.
Scisparc may also issue pre-funded warrants to purchase ordinary shares at its discretion, rather than issuing shares. However, this is subject to negotiation and the signing of definitive acquisition agreements, the company added.
Xylo had entered a licensing and distribution agreement with a Shanghai-based medical instruments company in 2019 for commercialization in Greater China.
SciSparc now intends to replicate this model across territories such as North America, Europe and Latin America by pursuing exclusive partnerships with regional distributors to accelerate worldwide commercialization.
