Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 26, 2026, BranchOut Food Inc., a Nevada corporation, (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Lake Street Capital Markets LLC as the representative of the underwriters named therein (the “Representative” and any such other underwriters, the “Underwriters”), relating to the issuance and sale by the Company to the Underwriters (the “Offering”) of 820,588 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a price to the public of $3.40 per share, less underwriting discounts and commissions. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Representative was granted an option, for a period of 30 days, to purchase from the Company up to 123,088 additional shares of Common Stock, at the same price per share, to cover over-allotments, if any.
The Shares are being sold and issued pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-287500), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 27, 2025, the prospectus contained therein, a prospectus supplement related to the offering of the Shares dated August 27, 2026 (the “Prospectus Supplement”) and an additional registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-298588) filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act.
Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company agreed to a 7.0% underwriting discount on the gross proceeds received by the Company for the Shares, in addition to reimbursement of certain expenses, made customary representations, warranties and covenants concerning the Company, and also agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In addition, the officers and directors of the Company have agreed not to offer, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock, the Company’s common stock, or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock, during the 90-day period following the date of the Underwriting Agreement, and the Company agreed that it will not issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or common stock equivalents during the same 90-day period, other than certain exempt issuances.
The Offering closed on August 28, 2026. The Company received net proceeds from the Offering of approximately $2,500,000 after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, legal fees of the Representative and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company in connection with the Offering.
As described in the Prospectus Supplement, the Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, including operating expenses and capital expenditures.
The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, which has been filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference. The legal opinion of Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP with respect to the validity of the Shares is filed as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
This Current Report on Form 8-K, including the exhibits filed herewith, shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Shares, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of the Shares in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state.
