TMD Titan Medical Inc

Titan Medical Inc. (“Titan”) (TSX: TMD; OTC: TMDIF) is pleased to announce that Institutional Shareholder Services (“ISS”), has released a report (the "ISS Report") recommending that Titan’s shareholders ("Shareholders") vote in favour of the proposed amalgamation with Conavi Medical Inc. (the “Amalgamation”) to be approved by the Shareholders at the annual general and special meeting of Titan to be held on September 30, 2024 (the “Meeting”).

As an independent proxy advisory firm, ISS has approximately 3,400 clients including many of the world's leading institutional investors who rely on ISS' objective and impartial analysis to make important voting decisions.

In reaching its recommendation that Shareholders vote FOR the Amalgamation ISS stated in their report:

“The proposed Amalgamation makes strategic sense as it appears to represent the best alternative among the opportunities available to improve the ability to increase shareholder value, and it is anticipated the transaction will enhance value for shareholders through ownership in a company with growth potential, with an improved balance sheet, and is expected to benefit from reduced listing requirements associated with re-listing on the TSXV.

“We are pleased that after reviewing the proposed business combination that ISS is recommending all shareholders vote for the Amalgamation “said Paul Cataford, Titan’s Interim CEO and Board Chairman. “This independent analysis and recommendation further validates the Titan board’s unanimous decision to recommend the Amalgamation transaction with Conavi Medical Inc.”
