On January 3, 2017, PixarBio CEO Frank Reynolds disclosed the Company’s intent to acquire InVivo Therapeutics Holdings Corp. In response, InVivo stated it had never been involved in negotiations with PixarBio and rejected the offer.
Then, on January 23, 2017, the SEC froze trading of PixarBio shares and stated, “the market for the security appears to reflect manipulative or deceptive activities.” Hagens Berman continues to investigate the SEC’s findings.
On February 8, 2017, the Company announced the resignation of Steven J. Chartier, its Chief Operating Officer and former VP of Regulatory Affairs. Mr. Chartier had been PixarBio’s COO for less than 2 months.
“We’re focused on the SEC’s ultimate determination of the matters warranting the trading halt and the damage inflicted on investors,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.
