Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.

 

Reverse Split

 

At the Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) of Scorpius Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) held on January 16, 2025, the Company’s stockholders approved a proposal granting the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) the discretion to amend the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0002 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a ratio of 1-for-5 to 1-for-35, with the ratio within such range to be determined at the discretion of the Board, without reducing the authorized number of shares of Common Stock. Following the Special Meeting, the Board approved the filing of a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”) to effect a reverse stock split at a final split ratio of 1-for-20 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Company intends to file the Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect the Reverse Stock Split on January 17, 2025, to become effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on January 21, 2025 (the “Effective Date”).

 

Split Adjustment; Treatment of Fractional Shares

 

As a result of the 1-for-20 Reverse Stock Split, each 20 pre-split shares of Common Stock outstanding will automatically combine into one new share of Common Stock without any action on the part of the holders, and the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock will be reduced from approximately 5.8 million shares to approximately 0.3 million shares (subject to rounding of fractional shares, which will be paid in cash). Proportional adjustments will also be made to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Company’s outstanding equity awards and warrants, as well as the applicable exercise price. The Reverse Stock Split will affect all of the Company’s stockholders uniformly and will not affect any stockholder’s percentage ownership interests in the Company, except those stockholders who would have otherwise received fractional shares, who will receive cash in lieu of such fractional shares. 

 

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. In lieu of fractional shares, any person who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock as a result of the reclassification and combination following the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split (after taking into account all fractional shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to such holder) shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the number of shares of the Common Stock held by such stockholder before the Reverse Stock Split that would otherwise have been exchanged for such fractional share interest multiplied by the average closing sales price of the Common Stock as reported on the NYSE American LLC for the ten days preceding the Effective Date. Holders of as many as 19 shares of Common Stock would be eliminated as a result of the cash payment in lieu of any issuance of fractional shares or interests in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.

 

Trading Symbol; New CUSIP

 

After the Reverse Stock Split, the trading symbol for the Common Stock will continue to be “SCPX”. The new CUSIP number for the Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split will be 42237K607.

 

Certificate of Amendment

 

The description of the Charter Amendment set forth above does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the form of Charter Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

 

As set forth in Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, on January 16, 2025, the Company held the Special Meeting at which the Company’s stockholders voted on the following three (3) proposals and cast their votes as described below. These matters are described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 20, 2024 (the “Proxy Statement”). As of December 13, 2024, the record date of the Special Meeting, there were 4,868,268 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting.
