"Has anyone on this board ever seen a similar situation to this one? Where a large investor increases their holding on bad news, if so, can you tell me the situation and how it played out. Many thanks."
It depends how terminal the news is, and why the investor bought in. In both scenarios, the board will need to be swapped out, or at the very least, be subject to votes from the investor.
Poly are not in the business of running pharma companies and providing medical advice. Private equity invest in companies they perceive have growth, which can be upscaled, and then exit within 3-5 years. It is simply a cash transaction to make more money. Hedge funds (like Poly) will likely have a shorter time frame 12-24 months.
