Evogene calls shareholder vote on Pure Capital nominees to reconstitute board under cooperation deal
  • Evogene reached a cooperation deal with activist investor Pure Capital Group to settle disputes tied to the Sept. 4 shareholder meeting vote.
  • Pure Capital had challenged the published voting results, then warned it would launch a special tender offer under Israeli law.
  • Agreement resets board control: two directors already resigned, replaced by Pure Capital nominees, subject to shareholder approval within 42 days.
  • Shareholders will also vote on adding two more Pure Capital nominees, replacing two outgoing directors, shifting the board to a 4-3 split.
  • Pure Capital withdrew the tender-offer notice, accepted a 60-day standstill; Evogene paused share issuance, excluding routine employee grants.
