Item 8.01 Other Events.

On April 2, 2014, TransEnterix, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it intended to conduct a public offering (the “Offering”) of shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”). On April 2, 2014, the Company also filed a preliminary prospectus supplement with respect to the Offering (the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Company indicated that it expected to issue and sell $50 million of Common Stock. On April 14, 2014, the Company agreed to sell 12,500,000 shares of Common Stock at a public offering price of $4.00 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $50 million in an underwritten firm commitment public offering. The Company has granted the underwriters an option, exercisable for 30 days, to purchase up to an additional 1,875,000 shares of Common Stock to cover over-allotments. Certain of the Company’s existing stockholders that are affiliated with certain of the Company’s directors have agreed to purchase $10 million of Common Stock in the Offering.

The Common Stock is being offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-193235) registering an aggregate of $100 million of designated securities of the Company. The shelf registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on April 2, 2014.

On March 31, 2014, the Company effected a one-for-five reverse stock split of its Common Stock. All relevant common share and per common share information in this Current Report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, without accounting for any fractional shares.

Dilution

Purchasers of shares of Common Stock in the Offering will experience dilution to the extent of the difference between the offering price per share of Common Stock and the net tangible book value per share of the Company’s Common stock immediately after the Offering. The Company’s net tangible book value as of December 31, 2013, was approximately $8.4 million, or $0.17 per share of Common Stock. Net tangible book value per share is equal to total tangible assets minus total liabilities, all divided by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.

After giving effect to the sale of 12,500,000 shares of Common Stock by the Company at a public offering price of $4.00 per share, less the estimated offering expenses, the Company’s as adjusted net tangible book value at December 31, 2013, would have been approximately $54,630, or $0.89 per share. This represents an immediate increase in the net tangible book value of $0.72 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $3.11 per share to investors in the Offering. The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

 

Public Offering price per share

     $ 4.00   

Net tangible book value per share as of December 31, 2013

   $ 0.17     

Increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to the Offering

   $ 0.72     

As adjusted net tangible book value per share after the Offering

     $ 0.89   

Dilution in tangible book value per share to new investors

   $ (3.11  

If the underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional shares in the Offering, the as adjusted net tangible book value after the Offering would be $0.98 per share, representing an increase in net tangible book value of $0.81 per share to existing shareholders and immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $3.02 per share to investors participating in the Offering.

The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding used in both the table and calculations above is based on 48,841,547 shares outstanding as of December 31, 2013. This number of shares does not include shares of Common Stock subject to the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares and also excludes:

 

    3,822,887 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options granted under the Company’s stock option plans at a weighted average exercise price of $1.30 per share;

 

    1,285,394 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants at a weighted average exercise price of $1.65 per share;

 

    210,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon vesting of outstanding restricted stock units; and

 

    4,169,100 shares of Common Stock available for future issuance under the Company’s stock option plans.
