SEC declares Form S-4 statement effective for WaveDancer, Firefly merger

WaveDancer and Firefly Neuroscience announced that the Registration Statement on Form S-4 relating to the companies’ proposed merger was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, WaveDancer commenced the mailing of a definitive proxy statement to WaveDancer stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 1, 2024. WaveDancer will hold a special meeting of its stockholders to approve the proposed merger on March 14, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time. “We are very pleased that the Registration Statement has been declared effective and are now ready to move forward with our stockholder vote next month. We now expect to close earlier in the second quarter of 2024 than originally anticipated,” said Jamie Benoit, Chairman and CEO of WaveDancer. “We hope that bringing Firefly and its FDA-cleared, Brain Network Analytics platform, developed with artificial intelligence, to the Nasdaq will accelerate the company’s ability to work with medical professionals to improve outcomes for people suffering from mental illnesses and cognitive disorders and we believe this transaction will translate into greater value for stockholders of both companies.”
