Waltham, Mass., Nov. 21, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nano Dimension Ltd. (Nasdaq: NNDM) (“Nano” or the“Company”), a leading supplier of A dditively M anufactured E lectronics and multi-dimensional polymer, metal & ceramic A dditive M anufacturing 3D printing solutions, today commented on the Israeli court ruling regarding Nano's Extraordinary General Meeting (the“EGM”) that was held on March 20th, 2023.
Highlights of the ruling include:
The EGM on March 20th, 2023, was determined to have been duly convened and the results of the meeting are valid, including the proposed changes to the Company's Articles of Association. Decisions made by Nano's Board since the March 2023 EGM are also valid, including agreements to acquire Desktop Metal, Inc. (“Desktop Metal”) and Markforged Holding Corporation (“Markforged”). Kenneth Traub and Dr. Joshua Rosensweig, two nominees put forth by Murchinson Ltd. (“Murchinson”) ahead of the March 2023 meeting who have been serving as Board observers, have been appointed as full Board members, effective immediately. CEO Yoav Stern is no longer a Board member. He continues to stand for election as planned at the 2024 Annual General Meeting (the“Annual Meeting”) to be held on December 6, 2024.
The Company clarifies in response to Murchinson's announcement issued earlier today, that, although Dr. Yoav Nissan-Cohen and Oded Gera have been removed from the Company's Board in the March 2023 EGM pursuant to the court ruling, both, however, have been elected at the Company's Annual Meeting held in September 2023 and are serving as Board members.
Dr. Yoav Nissan-Cohen, Chairman of the Board of Nano Dimension, commented:“We are pleased to welcome Kenneth Traub and Dr. Joshua Rosensweig as full members to Nano's Board. Both have been actively engaged as observers to date and we look forward to their continued insights in guiding the Company's strategy. We are also pleased that the Israeli Court affirmed to our shareholders and other stakeholders that our Board was fully authorized to oversee Nano's strategy, including our transformational M&A strategy and acquisitions of Desktop Metal and Markforged. We remain committed to advancing our plans to become the market leader in digital manufacturing and delivering long-term value creation for our shareholders.”
Dr. Nissan-Cohen added,“Yoav Stern continues as CEO and stands for election as planned along with General Garrett at our upcoming Annual Meeting. It is critically important that shareholders benefit from Yoav's expertise as a director and that General Garrett remains a Board member. With their deep expertise and institutional knowledge, we have the right Board in place to bolster our long-term strategy.”
Under the court's ruling, Murchinson's previous nominees now hold two seats on Nano's Board. Accordingly, Nano's Board urges the Company's shareholders to protect their investment and the Company's future by voting today “FOR” ALL of Nano's proposals, including the reelection of Yoav Stern and General Garrett, and AGAINST Murchinson's proposals at its upcoming Annual Meeting.
For most shareholders, the expected deadline to vote electronically will be 11:59 pm ET on December 1, 2024. Some brokers may have earlier deadlines, so shareholders are encouraged to call their brokers TODAY to ensure their vote is counted. Since time is short, shareholders are encouraged to vote by e-mail or electronically according to the instructions on their proxy card. Voting by e-mail or electronically is the best way for shareholders to ensure that their votes will be counted.
