Disclosure; I have not purchased this stock and would not touch it with a ten foot pole!
I've been watching the shenanigans with this company for the last few months and wondered why the stock of a company that was going out of business would be sought after so heavily and be so volatile . I came to the conclusions of 1) some kind of short squeeze, or 2) a knight in shining armor was coming in at the eleventh hour to save the company, and some people (I think the term for this is "insider") in the know were doing some market manipulation to make a little more bank$. The following press release is, at least, part of the answer!
GAITHERSBURG, Md. , Feb. 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NexImmune, Inc. a biotechnology company developing a novel approach to immunotherapy designed to orchestrate a targeted immune response by directing the function of antigen-specific T cells in oncology, autoimmune and infectious diseases, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement with a single healthcare focused institutional investor for the issuance and sale of an aggregate of 304,731 of its shares of common stock (or common stock equivalents in lieu thereof) at a purchase price of $12.05 per share (or per common stock equivalent in lieu thereof) in a registered direct offering priced at-the-market under Nasdaq rules. In a concurrent private placement, the Company has also agreed to issue and sell unregistered warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 304,731 shares of its common stock.
