Renalytix plc (NASDAQ: RNLX) (LSE: RENX), an artificial intelligence-enabled in vitro diagnostics company, focused on optimizing clinical management of kidney disease to drive improved patient outcomes and advance value-based care provides the following update in regard to an unsolicited approach from a possible strategic acquiror, launch of a Formal Sale Process, and its advanced financing activities.
Formal Sale Process
Renalytix has received an unsolicited approach from a large and well-capitalised publicly listed strategic diagnostics company, which is in the process of evaluating an acquisition of the entire issued, and to be issued, share capital of the Company.
Therefore, the Company has commenced a review of all available options, including a possible sale of the Company and/or its assets, and has commenced a formal sale process (as referred to in Note 2 on Rule 2.6 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers) (the "Formal Sale Process"). The Formal Sale Process will enable the Board and its advisers to conduct an orderly process and engage more widely with all potentially interested parties, with a view to optimising the outcome for Renalytix's shareholders. It remains possible that, following completion of the Formal Sale Process, the Board will consider that Renalytix and its shareholders would be best served by alternative strategic options available to the Company, including by Renalytix continuing to trade on AIM and Nasdaq as an independent entity.
