PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT NO. 18
(to Prospectus dated March 16, 2022)
Rockley Photonics Holdings Limited
Up to 7,785,560 Ordinary Shares
This prospectus supplement supplements the prospectus dated March 16, 2022 (the “Prospectus”), which forms a part of our registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-261399). This prospectus supplement is being filed to update and supplement the information in the Prospectus with the information contained in our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 27, 2022 (the “Current Report”). Accordingly, we have attached the Current Report to this prospectus supplement.
The Prospectus and this prospectus supplement relate to the offer and sale from time to time of up to 7,785,560 ordinary shares, nominal value $0.000004026575398 per share, of Rockley Photonics Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company, by Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC, or Lincoln Park or the selling shareholder.
The ordinary shares being offered by the selling shareholder may be issued pursuant to the purchase agreement dated November 15, 2021 that we entered into with Lincoln Park. See “The Lincoln Park Transaction” in the Prospectus for a description of that agreement and “Selling Shareholder” in the Prospectus for additional information regarding Lincoln Park. The prices at which Lincoln Park may sell the shares will be determined by the prevailing market price for the shares or in negotiated transactions.
We are not selling any securities under the Prospectus or this prospectus supplement and will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling shareholder.
The selling shareholder may sell the ordinary shares described in the Prospectus and this prospectus supplement in a number of different ways and at varying prices. See “Plan of Distribution” in the Prospectus for more information about how the selling shareholder may sell the ordinary shares being registered pursuant to the Prospectus or this prospectus supplement. The selling shareholder is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
Our Ordinary Shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “RKLY.” On December 23, 2022, the closing price of our Ordinary Shares was $0.15 per share. We are an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company” as those terms are defined under the federal securities laws and, as such, have elected to comply with certain reduced public company disclosure and reporting requirements.
This prospectus supplement updates and supplements the information in the Prospectus and is not complete without, and may not be delivered or utilized except in combination with, the Prospectus, including any amendments or supplements thereto. This prospectus supplement should be read in conjunction with the Prospectus and if there is any inconsistency between the information in the Prospectus and this prospectus supplement, you should rely on the information in this prospectus supplement.
See the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 7 of the Prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference in the Prospectus to read about factors you should consider before buying our securities.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus supplement or the Prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
The date of this prospectus supplement is December 27, 2022.
