Analysis · SNES · Industrial Applications And Services
Glenbrook Capital Management has nearly doubled its position from 19.95% to 38.04% of SenesTech, spending roughly $4.33 million in total, and is now openly agitating for board refreshment and a halt to the dilutive-offering/reverse-split cycle. The letter threatens to nominate directors and proposes equity-in-lieu-of-cash compensation to conserve cash — a direct challenge to a board running a company that already carries a going-concern warning and cash runway into Q1 2027. A 38% holder with a public campaign can force governance changes, and the disclosed open-market buys at $0.63-$0.89 show real money behind the position.
