Why is IBIO stock going down?
ChatGPT said:
iBio Inc. (IBIO) has experienced a decline in its stock price due to several factors:?
Public Offering at a Discounted Price: In December 2023, iBio announced a public offering of 2.25 million shares at $2 each, significantly below the prior closing price of $2.70. This offering raised concerns about shareholder dilution, contributing to a 41% drop in stock price at that time.

?
Reverse Stock Split: In November 2023, the company executed a 20-to-1 reverse stock split, reducing the number of outstanding shares from approximately 28.1 million to 1.4 million. While reverse splits can increase share prices temporarily, they often signal financial distress and can lead to decreased investor confidence. ?
Financial Performance and Cash Flow Concerns: For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024, iBio reported a net loss of $24.9 million, an improvement from the previous year's loss but still indicative of ongoing financial challenges. The company also faced negative cash flows, raising concerns about its ability to fund operations and growth initiatives. ?
Insider Selling and Dilution Risks: There have been instances of insider stock sales, which can be perceived negatively by investors. Additionally, previous agreements, such as those with Aspire Capital Fund and Lincoln Park Capital Fund, involve the issuance of substantial shares, potentially diluting existing shareholders and impacting stock value. ?
These factors collectively have contributed to the downward pressure on iBio's stock price.

On February 10, 2025 PR they said revenue of $0.2 million was reported for services provided to a collaborative partner during the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2024.
R&D and G&A expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 totaled approximately $4.6 million
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of Dec. 31, 2024, was approximately $7.2 million, inclusive of $0.2 million of restricted cash.
Lets be generous and add the $650,000 by the members of its Board of Directors and Officers
Why only $650K though for this "Gold Mine".
Was it to give the illusion to save their RSUs and Options?
Using 'simple math' the company had $7.2M in cash in December. Add the $650K
They are currently throwing over $1.5M out the window per month.
That gives the company approximately cash for FIVE months
Jan., Feb. Mar, Apr, May
Who is going to pony up $10M more to keep the boat afloat this year?

Why is iHub still showing AMEX?
Probably because the $6.33 price for the last trade on AMEX is a hell of a lot better than the current $4.50 price on NASDAQ, and IHUB wants to keep IBIO investors from sinking into depression. IBIO share price has been on a steady decline since the move to the new exchange.
Some have posted the move to the NASDAQ exchange would be "revealing", while the company CEO tried to spin it as a positive move for investors. So far it's very revealing.
Perhaps someone is investing another six figures here, loading up on cheaper shares as the price continues lower, assuming they have that much remaining after previous catastrophic investments... clicking the BUY button with one hand while eating a slice of delicious Domino's pizza with the other hand.
Notice the sour look on the investor's face. Even a slice of delicious Domino's pizza can't change the fact they've picked another loser investment, and trying to save face by averaging down as the share price continues to tank. No zip code change in this guy's future.

What?
Great to hear from you.
"Your bs is done with IBIO Sir!!!"

to a post I made SIX MONTHS EARLIER on Friday, July 26, 2024 7:57:30 AM LOL
Seems to be a 6 month reaction in hindsight, but I welcome and will return the favor in spaces
where I said...

To be fair, I made the following request to the ChatGPT AI model:
Compare the listing requirements for NYSE American and NASDAQ Capital Markets, including requirements for a company on either exchange to remain listed.
———————————————————————————————
A transfer from NYSE American to NASDAQ Capital Market can be viewed from multiple perspectives, depending on the company's financial situation, growth strategy, and investor perception.
Is It Easier to Meet NASDAQ Capital Market Requirements?
In general, NASDAQ Capital Market has slightly higher requirements than NYSE American in some aspects, such as:
• Stock Price: NASDAQ requires a minimum of $4/share for initial listing, while NYSE American allows as low as $2/share under some standards.
• Stockholders' Equity: NASDAQ requires at least $5 million for initial listing (under the Equity Standard), while NYSE American requires $4–$6 million depending on the listing path.
• Market Capitalization: NYSE American has an initial market cap requirement of $50 million (or lower in alternative standards), while NASDAQ Capital Market has a lower continued listing requirement at $35 million.
If a company is struggling to meet NYSE American's continued listing requirements but still qualifies for NASDAQ Capital Market, the move can help avoid delisting and provide a fresh start on a well-recognized exchange.
How is the Move Perceived?
• Neutral or Positive: If the transfer is due to a strategic decision (e.g., better alignment with NASDAQ’s technology-focused investor base), it may be seen as a neutral or positive move.
• Negative: If the move happens because the company fails to meet NYSE American’s requirements, investors might see it as a downgrade or a sign of financial trouble.
Other Considerations
• NASDAQ has a more tech-friendly reputation: If the company operates in tech, biotech, or growth industries, moving to NASDAQ might attract more institutional and retail investors.
• Market Perception Matters: Investors may view a transfer as an attempt to avoid delisting if the company struggles to meet NYSE American’s standards.
• NASDAQ offers lower listing fees: Annual fees on NASDAQ Capital Market tend to be lower than on NYSE American.
Final Verdict
• If the company voluntarily moves for strategic reasons, it’s a neutral or positive shift.
• If the move is forced due to non-compliance, it may be seen as a negative signal by investors.
• While the requirements aren’t significantly easier, NASDAQ Capital Market does offer a lower continued market cap threshold, which might help struggling companies stay listed.

This is a transfer from NYSE to NASDAQ. Not the same thing as uplisting. NASDAQ's Capital Market requirements are less stringent than NYSE American and easier for IBIO to remain listed on a national exchange. In that regard it could be viewed as a necessary move for the company. The last paragraph below spins it as a positive move, but that's what companies do. Maybe it will be. But no one should be fooled into believing this is an uplisting that occurs when a company is moving to the next higher tier of corporate and financial performance.
March 4th is iBio's Nasdaq uplisting

This story was initially reported in the U.K.'s Daily Mail, which is regarded as a tabloid. Here's how the Daily Mail is described in Wikipedia and many other sources. I'm taking this story with a lot of skepticism until I see it reported by more reliable sources (if there is such a thing in today's news services). If true, I stand to profit enormously with one of my investments, but for humanity's sake I hope this is tabloid fiction.
