CEROS FINANCIAL SERVICES ARRANGES $15 MILLION FINANCING FOR PRISTINE SURGICAL

MIAMI, March 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Ceros Financial Services announced that Ceros Capital Markets, its investment banking division, has completed a $15 million Series D (Series A4) financing round for Pristine Surgical. Pristine Surgical will apply the funding toward commercialization of its single-use visualization platform developed for surgical and diagnostic endoscopic procedures.

"Pristine Surgical has brought the endoscope into the 21^st Century, improving the endoscopic procedure for both patient and surgeon," said Mark Goldwasser, CEO of Ceros Financial Services.

Ceros focuses on fundraising for early-stage medical technology and medical device companies that are developing disruptive technologies, particularly for diagnostic and non-invasive procedures.  The firm is targeting to raise $150 million this year, Goldwasser said.  Ceros completed $117 million in transactions in the medtech sector in 2021 and $145 million since 2020. 

In 2021, Ceros co-led a $96 million financing round for Memic Innovative Surgery to support commercialization of Memic's Hominis® robotic-assisted platform, which features miniature humanoid-shaped robotic arms designed to replicate a surgeon's movements. 

Other Ceros transactions include OrthoSensor, which has developed a sensor-assisted device that provides real-time data for post-operative care following knee surgery; Dermasensor, which designs non-invasive tools that use machine learning and spectroscopy to evaluate skin lesions for cancer; and Insightec, which uses guided focused ultrasound equipment for non-invasive brain surgery.  In November, Ceros announced a $17.14 million placement for Aquyre Biosciences, which has developed cellular imaging technology that produces biopsy images in under two minutes for analysis and diagnosis, replacing the several-day wait from a lab.

"We are focused on fundraising for early-stage medtech and medical device companies developing what we believe to be innovative and pioneering technologies, especially for diagnostic and non-invasive procedures.  The pandemic has accelerated acceptance of medtech and we think these emerging companies hold great promise for the future," Goldwasser said.
