- DUBLIN, Ireland and BRIDGEWATER, N.J., Jan. 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amarin Corporation plc (NASDAQ:AMRN) (“Amarin” or the “Company”) today confirmed receipt of a requisition by Sarissa Capital Management LP (“Sarissa”) to convene a General Meeting of Shareholders (the “Special Meeting”).
- As appropriate, Amarin will announce the date of the Special Meeting and the record date for shareholders to vote at the Special Meeting in due course, and Amarin shareholders are not required to take any action at this time.
- Since Sarissa’s position was made public in November 2021, Amarin has engaged actively with Sarissa.
- We believe Sarissa’s proxy contest is misguided, costly and not in the best interest of other Amarin shareholders at this critical time for the Company.
