Oragenics (OGEN) Announces 1-for-30 Reverse Stock Split

May 28, 2025 7:00 AM EDT

Oragenics, Inc. (NYSE American: OGEN) (“Oragenics” or the “Company”), a biotech company advancing innovative treatments for brain-related health conditions, today announced that its Board of Directors (the “Board”) on May 27, 2025 approved a One-for-Thirty (1-for-30) reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Reverse Stock Split”). As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the Company’s common stock is expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis when the markets open on June 3, 2025.

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 30 pre-split shares of common stock outstanding will automatically combine into one new share of common stock without any action on the part of holders. Any fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split will be rounded up to the nearest whole share on a per shareholder basis. Proportionate adjustments will be made to (i) shares of common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of all issued and outstanding options, warrants and convertible securities of every kind, and (ii) shares outstanding and authorized for issuance under the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended. The Reverse Stock Split will not affect the par value of the common stock, nor the number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock, nor the Company’s authorized preferred stock, except, with regard to the preferred stock, to affect, where applicable, the conversion rates of outstanding shares of preferred stock.

The Board approved the Reverse Stock Split ratio after the Company’s shareholder approved providing the Board with authority to enact a reverse stock split in a ratio between one-for-five and one-for-fifty. The Company anticipates that the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split will be 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on June 3, 2025, with the common stock trading on a post-split basis when the market opens on June 3, 2025 under the existing trading symbol “OGEN” with a new CUSIP number, 684023 609. The Reverse Stock Split will increase the market price per share of the Company’s common stock.

Commenting on the matter, Chief Executive Officer, Ms. Janet Huffman, stated: “The reverse split reinforces our commitment to strengthening our capital markets presence. By increasing our share price and reducing share count, we believe we’ll be better aligned with the expectations of long-term, quality-focused investors who share our vision for transforming neurological care.”
