SRX Global acquires Vistagen stake, terms undisclosed

Share
  • SRX Global acquired an undisclosed stake in Vistagen Therapeutics.
  • SRX shares were unchanged at $1.44 in premarket trading.
  • SRX said it may discuss shareholder-value proposals with Vistagen’s leadership and board.

SRX Global acquired an undisclosed Vistagen Therapeutics (NASDAQ:VTGN) stake on August 4, adding a late clinical-stage neuroscience investment.

SRX disclosed no purchase price, ownership percentage or terms, despite reporting $40 million in cash and over $15 million in short-term investments in June.

SRX said it views Vistagen shares as undervalued and may discuss shareholder-value proposals with management and the board.

SRX described Vistagen as developing intranasal pherines targeting nose-to-brain neurocircuitry, but disclosed no investment size, costs or development deadlines.

Following the announcement, SRX Global's share price was unchanged at $1.44 in premarket trading.

The deal follows SRX’s Jersey Mike’s $1 billion IPO purchase and 4.99% Smartkem investment, whose proposed Ferrox merger awaits approvals.

SRX also authorized repurchases of up to 10 million shares or 50% outstanding and declared a one-time $0.05 dividend.
