Vyant Bio Provides Update on Winddown Activities
November 10 2023 - 3:05PM
Vyant Bio, Inc. (“Vyant Bio” or “Company”) (OTC: VYNT) is providing
an update to shareholders regarding its winddown activities
pursuant to its Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution following the
sale of substantially all of its assets. Vyant Bio’s Board of
Directors currently anticipates that it will file a Certificate of
Dissolution with the State of Delaware in late December 2023, after
which the Company’s common stock will cease to trade and holders of
shares of the Company’s common stock will cease to have any rights
in respect of that stock, except the right of holders at the date
we file the Certificate of Dissolution to receive distributions, if
any, pursuant to and in accordance with the Plan of Dissolution.
While the Company cannot predict with certainty
the amount of any possible liquidation payments, the Company
currently estimates that the liquidation payments to its
shareholders will range from $0.16 to $0.29 per share, with the
principal variable being the amount it receives with respect to the
aggregate of $1.175 million of contingent payments provided for in
the agreement for the sale of its assets. As noted in our forward
looking statements paragraph included herein and the Company’s
Proxy Statement filed with the U. S. Securities and Exchange
Commission on August 16, 2023, there a number of other factors
outside of the control of the Company that could materially change
the estimated liquidation proceeds payable to shareholders. The
Company estimates that it will make its first liquidation payment
in the fourth quarter of 2024.
ABOUT VYANT BIO, INC.
The Company has no continuing operating
activities other than the dissolution and liquidation of its
business pursuant to a Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution adopted
