BERKELEY, Calif., June 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Profusa, Inc. (Nasdaq: PFSA), a digital health company pioneering next-generation biosensing technologies, announces that shareholders approved all proposals presented at the Company’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 23, 2026.
The approved proposals included authorization related to the Company's planned acquisition of the PanOmics™ multi-omics diagnostics platform from BioInsights LLC, approval of debt conversion-related matters intended to strengthen the Company's balance sheet, authorization for a reverse stock split if deemed necessary by the Board to support Nasdaq listing compliance efforts, the election of a director, an amendment to the Company's equity incentive plan, and authority to adjourn the meeting if additional shareholder solicitation became necessary.
Collectively, the approved proposals provide Profusa with important tools to advance key strategic initiatives, strengthen its capital structure, support ongoing Nasdaq compliance efforts and position the Company for future growth.
"In my recent letter to shareholders, I emphasized the importance of participation in this year's Annual Meeting and the significance of these proposals to Profusa's future," said Ben Hwang, Ph.D., CEO & Chairman of the Board of Profusa. "We are grateful that our shareholders responded with their support. Today's outcome reflects a strong endorsement of the Company's strategic direction and provides management with important flexibility to execute on initiatives designed to strengthen the Company, advance innovation and create long-term shareholder value.
"We believe the proposals approved by shareholders unlock strategic levers for the evolution of Profusa including supporting our efforts to complete the PanOmics transaction, strengthening our balance sheet and maintaining compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements. Together, these actions enhance our ability to execute on our vision of building a leading precision health company at the intersection of biosensing, diagnostics and artificial intelligence," added. Dr. Hwang.
A key component of the shareholder vote was approval of the proposal supporting the Company's previously announced acquisition of PanOmics. Profusa believes the acquisition has the potential for strategic expansion into multiple high-growth markets and establishing a scalable diagnostics and monitoring platform that can work synergistically with Profusa’s biosensor platform.
With shareholder approval now secured, Profusa intends to focus on completing the PanOmics transaction, continuing its efforts to maintain compliance with Nasdaq listing standards, strengthening its capital structure, advancing commercialization initiatives and pursuing strategic opportunities designed to drive long-term growth.
