On February 23, 2023, Infinity announced via a webcast (the "Webcast") that it had entered into a merger agreement (the "Merger") with MEI Pharma, Inc. ("MEI"), pursuant to which Infinity would become a wholly-owned subsidiary of MEI. During the Webcast, Infinity's Chief Executive Officer Adeline Perkins stated that post-Merger, Infinity would "prioritize head and neck cancer" but conspicuously failed to mention Infinity's MARIO-4 and MARIO-P clinical studies for its flagship product eganelisib as a treatment for breast cancer.
Following these announcements, Infinity's stock price fell $0.27 per share, or 48.96%, to close at $0.28 per share on February 23, 2023.
Then, on July 24, 2023, Infinity announced that it was terminating the Merger after failing to obtain stockholder approval.
On this news, Infinity's stock price fell $0.09 per share, or 40.54%, to close at $0.13 per share on July 24, 2023.
On July 25, 2023, Infinity issued a press release "announc[ing] a series of actions designed to reduce the Company's burn rate and enhance our ability to maximize value of eganelisib, following the termination of its previously announced merger agreement with MEI Pharma, Inc."
