MEI Pharma

MEI Pharma Inc is focused on the clinical development of novel therapies for cancer. The company's clinical drug candidate includes Pracinostat, an orally available histone deacetylase inhibitor for the treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome. Its clinical development portfolio also includes Zandelisib, an oral inhibitor of phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase delta for the treatment of patients with recurrent chronic lymphocytic leukemia or follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma; and ME-344, an isoflavone-based mitochondrial inhibitor for the treatment of HER2-negative breast cancer and Pracinostat, an oral histone deacetylase inhibitor. Geographically, all the business activities function through the region of the United States.

MEI Pharma, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MEIP#NASDAQ">MEIP</a>) stock is trading higher on Friday, with a session volume of 35.64 million compared to the average volume of 29.8K, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/feature/newsfeed" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">as per data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
The company on Friday entered into a private investment in public equity (PIPE) for the purchase and sale of 29.2 million shares $3.42 per share, for expected aggregate gross proceeds of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/b46490326/mei-pharma-announces-100-000-000-private-placement-to-initiate-litecoin-treasury-strategy-becoming" rel="noreferrer noopener">approximately $100 million</a>.
In connection with the closing of the transaction, MEI will appoint Charlie Lee to its board of directors. Current member Taheer Datoo will resign, and GSR will serve as its digital asset and treasury management advisor to oversee the implementation of its Litecoin Treasury Strategy.
Charlie Lee and GSR acted as lead investors, alongside participation from the Litecoin Foundation, crypto venture capital firms, and infrastructure providers.
The transaction marks a significant milestone in MEI&#8217;s long-term strategic plan.
It establishes MEI as the first and only publicly traded company to adopt Litecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ltc/usd">LTC</a>) as a treasury reserve asset. Litecoin is a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency created by Charlie Lee in October 2011.
Due to its similarities to Bitcoin, Litecoin is often referred to as the &#8220;silver to Bitcoin&#8217;s gold.&#8221;
As one of the longest-running blockchains with 100% uptime since its inception, Litecoin has demonstrated a proven track record of growth and reliability with significant enterprise-grade use cases. By integrating Litecoin into its treasury operations, MEI gains access to a decentralized monetary asset that complements its cash management framework.
MEIP Price Action: MEI Pharma stock is up 31.54% at $5.92 at the last check on Friday.

MEI Pharma (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MEIP#NASDAQ">MEIP</a>) has launched a $100 million Litecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ltc/usd">LTC</a>) treasury program, backed by Titan Partners Group and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/07/46491139/donald-trump-jr-backed-thumzup-media-approves-250m-in-bitcoin-ethereum-xrp-sol-dogecoin-treasury-purchases">crypto investment firm GSR</a>.
The move includes the <a href="https://x.com/LTCFoundation/status/1946191121065164991">appointment</a> of Charlie Lee, the creator of Litecoin, to MEI's Board of Directors.
The Litecoin Foundation has also taken an investment position in MEI as part of the initiative.
The company's stock rose sharply from $4.20 to $11.45 following the announcement, before retracing to $6.00, reflecting market volatility after a significant change in strategic direction.
"For 14 years, Litecoin has consistently delivered a stable, low-cost, and accessible network for millions," said Lee. "This partnership with GSR and MEI Pharma brings that utility and mission into an institutional setting for the first time."
MEI joins a growing number of public companies allocating capital to cryptocurrencies as part of their treasury management.

Notable corporate treasury allocations in crypto:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Strategy began purchasing Bitcoin in August 2020, making it the largest public corporate holder of Bitcoin.</li>
<li>Tesla disclosed a $1.5 billion Bitcoin investment in early 2021, and though it later sold portions, it retained part of its BTC holdings on the balance sheet as of 2024 filings.</li>
<li>Bit Digital revealed in July 2025 that it had expanded its Ethereum holdings to over 120,000 ETH, part of a strategy that includes staking and validator operations.</li>
</ul>
MEI's Litecoin strategy is notable in that it centers entirely on LTC rather than Bitcoin or Ethereum. 
Litecoin, launched in 2011, is often used in payment applications and is supported by processors such as BitPay. 
As of today, MEI Pharma becomes the most prominent U.S.-listed company to formally allocate a nine-figure treasury position solely in Litecoin.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Notes From The Block</h3>
Joshua Robinson, co-founder of Darwin Financial Company, announced a $55-million financing deal with INYOAG LLC. The funds will help develop a solar-powered mine in Inyo County, California where there are proven reserves of silver, lead, zinc, tungsten, and copper. Here&#8217;s our conversation with Robinson:
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">BZ: What is the deal structure between Darwin Financial and base metals miner INYOAG? </h4>
Robinson: The deal structure is a $55M project financing package split into three components: $17.5 million and $12.5 million in six-year notes tied to sulfide and oxide production respectively, plus a $20-million conditional equity commitment that only triggers if the mine hits $10 million in monthly revenue. We get 17% of gross revenues from both production tracks, structured through secure lockbox arrangements. It&#8217;s not a straight equity investment, we specifically designed it this way to provide further upside exposure.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Are you looking for additional investors/joint venture partners? </h4>
Yes, we&#8217;ve deliberately structured this to create multiple layers of upside potential, which is pretty unique in the mining space. We&#8217;ve created a hybrid model that offers both near-term cash flow from production and significant expansion potential. We&#8217;re already seeing interest from established mining players, but we&#8217;re particularly excited about bringing new investors into the space who understand the strategic value of critical minerals.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">What are the downsides to depending on foreign sources of critical minerals?</h4>
China&#8217;s recent actions really highlight the urgency here. They&#8217;ve already implemented export controls on germanium and gallium, and just added antimony to that list. This isn&#8217;t theoretical anymore, it&#8217;s actively happening. We need to build regional resilience in our supply chains, particularly for these minerals that are crucial for defense and technology. The Darwin Mine gives us a unique opportunity to establish a domestic source for multiple critical minerals in a single asset, which is rare to find.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Will the mine be powered by solar? </h4>
The 100MW facility wouldn&#8217;t just power the mine. It would generate significant excess clean energy that we can sell back to the grid. What&#8217;s particularly interesting is that we can develop utility-scale energy storage systems using minerals we&#8217;re already producing. It creates a virtuous cycle where our mining operations directly support clean energy deployment
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">What are your 2025 goals?</h4>
For 2025, our key goals are reaching 300 tons per day on sulfide production within six months and 200 tons per day on oxide within nine months of funding. That puts us at $ 10 million in monthly revenue, which then triggers the deeper mine development program.

Alex Jones&#8217;s media company, Infowars, is now the property of satirical publication The Onion. The publication&#8217;s backers were none other than the families <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/24/11/41982446/jokes-on-jones-onion-backed-by-families-of-sandy-hook-victims-buys-info-wars">of Sandy Hook victims</a>. Observers praised the deal as poetic justice, considering Jones owes over $1 billion in defamation judgments against those families. Jones, who <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/12/36168941/elon-musks-controversial-move-alex-jones-returns-to-x-after-user-vote">has garnered sympathy from</a> right-wing personalities like Elon Musk and Tucker Carlson, confirmed the acquisition in a visibly distressed social media video, blaming &#8220;Democrats.&#8221;

Diamond, currently possessing $100 million in liquidity, will emerge from bankruptcy and operate as a stand-alone entity. Sinclair, the parent company, took on $8 billion in debt to buy regional channels from Fox for $10.6 billion in 2019. That debt contributed to Diamond&#8217;s bankruptcy.

Confirms Continuation of Evaluation of Strategic Alternatives
MEI Pharma, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MEIP#NASDAQ">MEIP</a>) (the "Company") today reported results for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2024.
Previously on July 22, 2024, the Company announced the commencement of an evaluation of strategic alternatives with the goal of maximizing the value of its assets for its stockholders. Subsequent to that date, the Company announced the engagement of Oppenheimer &amp; Co., Inc. to serve as the Company's exclusive financial adviser to assist in the review and evaluation of that process. As part of the review of strategic alternatives, the Company will consider options such as out-licensing opportunities for existing programs and merger and acquisition opportunities.
To best preserve the Company's existing cash, the Company commenced a reduction-in-force on August 1, 2024, which will continue in stages as the Company's operational and strategic direction evolves. Additionally, while the Company has discontinued the clinical development of voruciclib, certain non-clinical activities related to the Company's drug candidates continue to be conducted.
There can be no assurance the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any agreements or transactions, or, if completed, any agreements or transactions will be successful or on attractive terms. The Company does not expect to disclose developments with respect to this process unless or until the evaluation of strategic alternatives has been completed or the Board of Directors has concluded disclosure is appropriate or legally required.
As of June 30, 2024, MEI had $38.3 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments with no outstanding debt.
