Celularity Sells $126M in New Jersey Tax Credits for $12.2M

The biotech company will use the non-dilutive capital to support its regenerative medicine programs.

Published on Feb. 10, 2026

Celularity Inc., a regenerative and cellular medicine company, has received $12.2 million in net cash proceeds from the sale of approximately $126.3 million of its unused New Jersey net operating losses (NOLs) and $1.9 million of unused New Jersey research and development (R&D) tax credits. The sale was facilitated through New Jersey's Technology Business Tax Certificate Transfer Program, which enables qualified state-based tech and life science companies to sell their NOLs and R&D tax credits for cash.

Why it matters

The funds provide Celularity with non-dilutive, tax-free capital that strengthens the company's balance sheet and enhances liquidity. This supports Celularity's efforts to commercialize its GMP-level stem cell and other cell therapies and regenerative medicine programs targeting longevity and human performance preservation.

The details

Celularity sold the NOLs and R&D tax credits through New Jersey's Technology Business Tax Certificate Transfer Program, which is operated by the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA). The program enables qualified state-based tech and life science companies to monetize their unused tax assets.

  • Celularity received the $12.2 million in net cash proceeds on February 10, 2026.
