Item 4.Purpose of the Transaction.

 

Item 4 of Schedule 13D is supplemented and amended, as the case may be, as follows:

 

On March 20, 2018, DBV Technologies S.A. (“the Issuer”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Goldman Sachs International, Barclays Capital Inc. and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (the “Underwriters”), related to a U.S. public offering and European private placement (the “Offering”) of an aggregate of 3,527,752 Ordinary Shares in (i) a public offering of 1,392,015 Ordinary Shares (as defined below) in the form of 2,784,030 American Depositary Shares (“ADS”) of the Issuer in the United States, Canada and certain other countries outside Europe at a price to the public of $21.26 per ADS and a concurrent private placement of 2,135,737 Ordinary Shares (as defined below) at a price to the public of €34.71 per Ordinary Share. Each ADS represents one-half of one Ordinary Share of the Issuer. (“Ordinary Shares”). The Offering is expected to close on March 23, 2018. In addition, the Issuer granted the Underwriters an option exercisable for 30 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement to purchase, at the public offering price less any underwriting discounts and commissions, up to an additional 529,162 Ordinary Shares to cover overallotments, if any (“Underwriters Option”).

 

Pursuant to the Offering, on March 21, 2018, 667 and Life Sciences purchased 112,399 and 1,002,478 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer, respectively, at the offering price of €34.71 per share, totaling 1,114,877 Ordinary Shares in the aggregate. Each of the Funds purchased Ordinary Shares of the Issuer with their working capital.

 

Michael Goller, a full-time employee of the Adviser currently serves on the Issuer’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) as a representative of the Funds. The policy of the Funds and the Adviser does not permit full-time employees of the Adviser to receive compensation for serving as directors of the Issuer, and the Funds are instead entitled to the pecuniary interest in the warrants to purchase common stock of the Issuer (“the Warrants”). Michael Goller has no voting or dispositive power and no pecuniary interest in the Warrants previously disclosed in amendments to this Schedule 13D. Other than through their control of the Adviser, Felix J. Baker and Julian C. Baker have neither voting nor dispositive power and have no direct pecuniary interest in the Warrants held by Michael Goller. The Funds are instead entitled to the pecuniary interest in the Warrants held by Michael Goller previously disclosed in amendments to this Schedule 13D. Baker Bros. Advisors LP has voting and investment power over the Warrants held by Michael Goller previously disclosed in amendments to this Schedule 13D.

 

The Funds hold securities of the Issuer for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons or their affiliates may purchase additional securities or dispose of securities in varying amounts and at varying times depending upon the Reporting Persons’ continuing assessments of pertinent factors, including the availability of Ordinary Shares or other securities for purchase at particular price levels, the business prospects of the Issuer, other business investment opportunities, economic conditions, stock market conditions, money market conditions, the attitudes and actions of the Board and management of the Issuer, the availability and nature of opportunities to dispose of securities of the Issuer and other plans and requirements of the particular entities. The Reporting Persons may discuss items of mutual interest with the Issuer, which could include items in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

 

Depending upon their assessments of the above factors, the Reporting Persons or their affiliates may change their present intentions as stated above and may make suggestions to the management of the Issuer regarding corporate financing and strategy, and may acquire or dispose of securities of the Issuer (by means of open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, exercise of some or all of the Warrants, or otherwise).

 

 

CUSIP No.  23306J101   Page   8   of   10   Pages

 

 

Except as otherwise disclosed herein, at the present time, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals with respect to any extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer including, without limitation, those matters described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

 

Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

(a) and (b)   Items 7 through 11 and 13 of each of the cover pages of this Amendment No. 3 are incorporated herein by reference. Set forth below is the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares of the Issuer directly held by each of the Funds, including Ordinary Shares owned through American Depositary Shares held by each of the Funds, and the percentage of the Issuer’s outstanding Ordinary Shares such holdings represent. Each American Depositary Share represents one-half of one Ordinary Shares of the Issuer. The information set forth below is based upon 28,950,871 Ordinary Shares that will be outstanding following the Offering, plus 529,162 additional ordinary shares issued as part of the Underwriters option according to information published by the Issuer’s on March 20, 2018. Such percentage figures are calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The Issuer’s registration obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement cover all securities now held or later acquired by the Funds, including securities issued or issuable upon the exercise or conversion of any other securities, will continue in effect for up to ten years as long as securities held by the Funds remain Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), and include the Issuer’s obligation to facilitate certain underwritten public offerings of securities by the Funds in the future, including one underwritten public offering per calendar year and a total of no more than three total underwritten public offerings.

 

The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
