Nanox Issues Statement on Unusual Trading Activities

NEVE ILAN, Israel-- September 16, 2020 -- NANO-X IMAGING LTD (NASDAQ: NNOX) (“Nanox” or the “Company”), an innovative medical imaging technology company, today issued a statement in response to unusual trading activities that occurred on September 15, 2020.

The Company is carefully reviewing the report and will provide additional information on the allegations as appropriate.
