BRYAN, Texas, Dec. 22, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iBio, Inc. (NYSEA:IBIO) (“iBio” or the “Company”), a developer of next-generation biopharmaceuticals and pioneer of the sustainable, plant-based FastPharming Manufacturing System®, today announced that it has adjourned its 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) with respect to Proposals 4 and 5.
The Company partially adjourned the Annual Meeting on December 9, 2021 with respect to Proposal 4 (Reverse Stock Split) and Proposal 5 (Change in Authorized Shares) to allow those stockholders who hold approximately 40% of the unvoted shares more time to vote. iBio subsequently received additional votes “FOR” the proposals, as well as support from a number of shareholders who changed their “against” votes.
