Key Terms

ads, nominal value, non-pre-emptive basis, fractional entitlements
4 terms
ads financial
"the ratio of ordinary shares per ADS will also be changed"
Ads are paid promotional messages a company places across media — online, on TV, in print, or on social platforms — to attract customers, explain products, or shape public perception. For investors, ads matter because they drive sales growth, affect how much a company must spend to win customers, and influence brand strength and long-term value. Ads can also create regulatory or reputational risk if claims are misleading, which can affect profits and stock price.
nominal value financial
"while maintaining the nominal, or par, value"
Nominal value is the stated or face amount assigned to a financial instrument — for shares it’s the par value printed on the stock certificate, and for money or returns it can mean the number not adjusted for inflation. Think of it like a price tag on an item versus its buying power: the tag tells you the label, but not how much you can actually buy. Investors care because nominal values affect accounting, legal capital, dividend calculations and comparisons over time when inflation may distort real worth.
non-pre-emptive basis financial
"authority to allot ordinary shares on a non-pre-emptive basis"
An arrangement in which a company issues new shares, securities, or rights without offering existing shareholders the chance to buy a proportional amount first. Think of it like a bakery selling extra loaves to new customers without asking regulars if they want more; it can change ownership percentages and potential voting power, so investors watch for possible dilution and shifts in control.
fractional entitlements financial
"as a result of the treatment of fractional entitlements"
Fractional entitlements occur when a corporate action (like a dividend, stock split, rights offering or consolidation) would give a shareholder a non-whole share or security — for example, 0.5 of a share. Companies typically settle these fractions by paying a small cash amount or rounding up/down, and this matters to investors because it changes cash balances, can slightly alter ownership percentages, and may have small tax and record-keeping implications, much like receiving change after splitting a bill.

Biodexa Pharmaceuticals PLC (Nasdaq: BDRX) (“Biodexa” or “the Company”), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing innovative products focused on the treatment or prevention of gastrointestinal cancers, announces that at its General Meeting held earlier today, all four resolutions put to the Company’s shareholders were duly passed.

The full text of, inter alia, the resolutions proposed and passed at the General Meeting can be found in the Notice of the General Meeting on the Company's website at: https://biodexapharma.com/investors/corporate-governance/#agms.

The effect of resolutions 1 and 4 is solely to reduce the number of ordinary shares outstanding by a factor of 10,000 while maintaining the nominal, or par, value of £0.000001 per ordinary share. With effect from tomorrow, July 30, 2026, the ratio of ordinary shares per ADS will also be changed by a factor of 10,000 from 500,000:1 to 50:1. For clarification, these changes do not have the effect of a reverse split and the proportional ownership of holders of ordinary shares and/or ADSs will not change (otherwise than as a result of the treatment of fractional entitlements as provided for in the Notice of Meeting).

The share reorganization and change in ordinary share/ADS ratio will be effective from 08.00 BST (03.00 EDT) tomorrow July 30, 2026. Following the share capital reorganization there will be 51,453,281 ordinary shares of £0.000001 each outstanding, equivalent to 1,029,063 ADSs, the same number of ADSs outstanding prior to the reorganization.

About Biodexa Pharmaceuticals PLC

Biodexa Pharmaceuticals PLC (listed on NASDAQ: BDRX) is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing a pipeline of innovative products for the treatment of diseases with unmet medical needs. The Company’s lead development programs include eRapa, under development for Familial Adenomatous Polyposis and Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer, MTX240 under development for Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST) and tolimidone, under development for the treatment of type 1 diabetes.

eRapa is a proprietary oral capsule formulation of rapamycin, also known as sirolimus. Rapamycin is an mTOR (mammalian Target Of Rapamycin) inhibitor. mTOR has been shown to have a significant role in the signalling pathway that regulates cellular metabolism, growth and proliferation and is activated during tumorigenesis.

MTX240 is a molecular glue, bringing two intracellular proteins, PDE3a and SLFN12, specifically co-expressed by GIST cancer cells, into close proximity to form a stable complex. This interaction stabilizes SLFN12, enabling it to drive RNase-mediated apoptosis in GIST cells through a mechanism independent of KIT or PDGFR signalling.

Tolimidone is an orally delivered, potent and selective inhibitor of Lyn kinase. Lyn is a member of the Src family of protein tyrosine kinases, which is mainly expressed in hematopoietic cells, in neural tissues, liver, and adipose tissue. Tolimidone demonstrates glycaemic control via insulin sensitization in animal models of diabetes and has the potential to become a first in class blood glucose modulating agent.

Biodexa’s headquarters and R&D facility is in Cardiff, UK. For more information visit www.biodexapharma.com.
