December 2024 – Marinomed Biotech AG (VSE:MARI) announces that the majority of shareholders approved the sale of the Carragelose business unit to the French company Unither Pharmaceuticals at today's extraordinary general meeting. This approval is an important prerequisite for the closing of the transaction. In November 2024, Marinomed signed an agreement on the sale of the Carragelose business, which provides for upfront and milestone payments of in total up to EUR 20 million. Closing of the deal is still subject to other conditions such as approval in accordance with the Investment Control Act. Furthermore, Dr. Karl Mahler has been elected as member of the Supervisory Board. He holds a doctorate in economics and held several leadership positions in corporate planning and investor relations, including over 20 years as Head of Investor Relations at Hoffman La Roche. After the resignation of Dr. Eva Hofstädter-Thalmann and Dr. Ulrich Kinzel, the Supervisory Board now consists of four members, two women and two men. All other proposed resolutions of the Management Board and Supervisory Board, including the creation of new authorized and conditional capital, were also approved by large majorities. “The shareholders' approval of the sale of the Carragelose business is essential for the Company's continued existence. Our strategic focus is clearly on the commercialization of the Marinosolv products Budesolv and Tacrosolv and the expansion of the Solv4U service offering. We thank our shareholders for their support and are working hard to lead the Company to profitability,” says Andreas Grassauer, CEO of Marinomed.
