Recommendation

hold

While the divestiture of Immuno LLC has improved GridAI's pro forma financial metrics by reducing losses and liabilities, the company remains unprofitable from its continuing operations. The rescission unwinds a previous merger, indicating a strategic shift or failure of the initial acquisition. Investors should hold to observe the company's performance post-divestiture and assess its core business strategy and path to profitability before making further investment decisions.
