Scinai Immunotherapeutics (Nasdaq: SCNI) has regained full compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements, specifically Rule 5550(b)(1) which mandates a minimum stockholders' equity of $2.5 million. This achievement follows the company's recent Loan Restructuring Agreement with European Investment Bank, converting approximately $29 million of debt to preferred equity. The restructuring has significantly improved Scinai's balance sheet, leaving a debt balance of only €250,000 (approximately $273,000).

CEO Amir Reichman expressed that this development allows the company to focus on its R&D programs and new CDMO business unit. However, Scinai will be subject to a Mandatory Panel Monitor for one year, during which any non-compliance with the Rule could result in immediate delisting proceedings without the opportunity for a compliance plan.

Scinai Immunotherapeutics (Nasdaq: SCNI) has closed a Loan Restructuring Agreement with the European Investment Bank (EIB), converting approximately $29 million of debt into 1,000 preferred shares. This leaves a debt balance of only $273,000, maturing on December 31, 2031, with no interest accrual or prepayment option.

The restructuring boosts Scinai's stockholders' equity above $2.5 million, potentially regaining compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). The preferred shares are convertible into ADSs representing 19.5% of the company's fully diluted capital, with a 12-month lock-up period and a 4.99% ownership limitation. Scinai retains the option to redeem the shares at a cumulative value of $34 million.

Scinai Immunotherapeutics (Nasdaq: SCNI) has entered into a $2 million Investment Commitment Agreement with RK Stone Miami , an affiliate of its largest shareholder, Daniel Stone.

The agreement includes provisions to prevent the investor from exceeding 9.99% ownership of outstanding ordinary shares, with pre-funded warrants issued if necessary. Scinai will pay a commitment fee of $100,000 if an advance notice is provided, or $40,000 if no advance is made during the commitment period.
