Salvarx Takeover Rumours (SALV)

As noted in the Company's interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2019, the Company has been evaluating a number of potential acquisition opportunities. The Company is now pleased to announce that it is in advanced discussions with an acquisition target which is a leader in the field of oral immune therapies. Should this proposed acquisition proceed, the Board of SalvaRx anticipates making a further announcement early in the new year, setting out full details of the transaction. Despite efforts to conclude a reverse takeover before the cancellation date, it will not be possible to conclude the proposed transaction before 10 January 2020. On this basis, the cancellation of the admission to trading of the Ordinary Shares on AIM is expected to take effect from 7.00 a.m. on 10 January 2020.
