"We believe filing a shelf registration is a prudent step to provide additional financial flexibility for us and one we have indicated we would take," said Nathan Harding, co-founder and chief executive officer of Ekso Bionics.

The terms of any offering under the shelf registration statement will be established at the time of such offering and will be described in a prospectus supplement filed with the SEC prior to completion of the offering.
