Analysis · NNDM · Manufacturing
Oramed Pharmaceuticals, a former activist shareholder, has sold its direct equity stake in Nano Dimension, reducing its beneficial ownership below 5%. This move follows the recent settlement of the proxy contest with Murchinson Ltd. and Oramed's prior opposition to a major acquisition. While Oramed sold its shares, it simultaneously entered into a complex options strategy, purchasing call options and selling put options, indicating a continued, albeit indirect, bullish exposure to the stock. This strategic shift by a significant investor marks a change in their direct involvement following a period of intense corporate governance activity.
