Investment in  Polarean Imaging plc

Intuitive Investments Group plc (AIM: IIG) ("IIG" or the "Company"), a closed-end investment company focussed on the life sciences sector, announces an investment of £250,000 to acquire 416,666 ordinary shares of Polarean Imaging plc (AIM: POLX) ("Polarean") at a price of 60 pence per share (the "Investment"). The Investment is part of Polarean's fundraising as announced by Polarean on 15 March 2021 (the "Fundraising"). The Investment is conditional upon, amongst other things, each of the resolutions being passed at Polarean's forthcoming general meeting on 6 April 2021.

Polarean and its wholly owned subsidiary, Polarean, Inc. (together the "Group") are revenue generating, medical drug-device combination companies operating in the high-resolution medical imaging market.   The Group develops equipment that enables existing MRI systems to achieve an improved level of pulmonary function imaging and specialises in the use of hyperpolarised Xenon gas ( 129 Xe) as an imaging agent to visualise ventilation and gas exchange regionally in the smallest airways of the lungs, the tissue barrier between the lung and the bloodstream and in the pulmonary vasculature. Xenon gas exhibits solubility and signal properties that enable it to be imaged within other tissues and organs.

 

Robert Naylor has personally invested £125,000 as part of the Fundraising. Accordingly, Robert Naylor did not vote as a member of the Board IIG approving the Investment.
