DBV has a liquidity runway of about one year and anticipates raising capital to finance commercialization while already preparing sales, reimbursement and manufacturing.

DBV Technologies seeks to renew an at‑the‑market program (ATM) and files a shelf registration (Form S‑3ASR) to issue and sell ADSs of up to $150 million; Citizens JMP Securities is acting as placement agent. Each ADS represents five common shares; the volume includes both already-registered and newly registered ADSs and the terms remain unchanged. The company intends to use net proceeds primarily for production expansion, biologics regulatory filings for 1- to 7-year-olds, the launch of Viaskin Peanut for 4- to 7-year-olds, development of additional candidates, and general corporate purposes.
