Proposed Investment in Evgen Pharma plc

 

Intuitive Investments Group plc (AIM: IIG) ("IIG"), a closed-end investment company focussed on the life sciences sector, announces an investment of £175,000 to acquire 2,187,500 million ordinary shares of Evgen Pharma plc (AIM:EVG) ("Evgen") at a price of 8 pence per share (the "Investment"). The Investment is part of the fundraising announced by Evgen on 2 February 2021. The Investment is conditional upon, amongst other things,  the resolutions being passed at Evgen's forthcoming general meeting on 3 March 2021.

 

Evgen is a clinical stage drug development company developing sulforaphane-based medicines for the treatment of multiple diseases.

 

The Investment in Evgen is the Company's fourth investment following its IPO in mid-December 2020.

 

David Evans, Chairman of IIG, has a pre-existing interest of 145,000 ordinary shares in Evgen and accordingly did not participate in the Company's decision to approve the Investment.
