  • Seaport Therapeutics Upsizes IPO to $255M, CEO Highlights New Biotech Pathway
    May 1, 2026, 2:02 PM EDT. Seaport Therapeutics raised $254.9 million in an upsized Nasdaq IPO, exceeding initial $180 million estimates. CEO Daphne Zohar highlighted a shift from traditional M&A (mergers and acquisitions) to public offerings, reflecting confidence in developing and marketing their depression drug pipeline independently. The company may raise an additional $38.2 million through underwriters' option. Zohar pointed to industry changes where biotech firms are now focusing on advancing medicines directly to patients, citing success stories like Karuna Therapeutics and Intra-Cellular Therapies. Seaport's board recently welcomed Sharon Mates, who led Intra-Cellular to a $1.5 billion drug launch before its J&J acquisition. This IPO signals renewals in the biotech public market despite recent Big Pharma dealmaking.
