Insights

BioCorRx swapped stock with insiders to increase subsidiary ownership through a non-cash, exempt private issuance.

BioCorRx issued 2,263,371 common shares to three insider shareholders in exchange for 1,215 shares of its subsidiary, representing about 12.15% of that entity. This deepens ownership in BioCorRx Pharmaceuticals as part of a broader Plan of Reorganization structured to qualify as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368.

The move is a non-cash, related party transaction approved under the company’s policy, so economic impact comes mainly from share issuance versus higher subsidiary ownership. The shares were issued as restricted securities under a Section 4(a)(2) private placement, and the insiders received registration rights, which may facilitate possible future resale once effective.

stock exchange agreement financial
"entered into a stock exchange agreement (the “Agreement”) with Lourdes Felix"
Plan of Reorganization financial
"The Exchange was in connection with the Company’s Plan of Reorganization, adopted February 25, 2026"
A plan of reorganization is a formal blueprint used during bankruptcy to rearrange a company’s debts, assets and ownership so it can keep operating. It lays out who gets paid, what creditors and shareholders receive, and how the business will change going forward; think of it as a court-approved debt and recovery roadmap that decides whether investors keep value, receive new securities or cash, or lose their stake.
Section 368(a)(1)(B) regulatory
"intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Code"
restricted securities regulatory
"The Parent Shares have not been registered ... and are or will be, as the case may be, “restricted securities”"
Restricted securities are shares or other investment instruments that come with legal or contractual limits on when and how they can be sold, like stock given to founders or bought in a private offering. Think of them as assets in a locked box that can’t be freely traded until certain conditions — such as a waiting period, company registration, or specific approvals — are met. For investors this matters because restricted securities are less liquid and can affect timing, price, and perceived value when they eventually enter the market.
Section 4(a)(2) regulatory
"in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933"
Section 4(a)(2) is a part of U.S. securities laws that allows companies to sell their stock directly to certain investors without registering the sale with regulators. This process is often used for private placements, making it easier and faster for companies to raise money from knowledgeable or institutional investors. It matters to investors because it provides an alternative way to buy shares, often with fewer disclosures and lower costs.
accredited investors financial
"the Shareholders are accredited investors"
Accredited investors are individuals or entities considered to have enough financial knowledge and resources to understand and handle more complex and risky investments. They are often allowed to participate in private investment opportunities that are not available to the general public, similar to how experienced players might access exclusive clubs or events. This status helps ensure that investors can manage potential risks and rewards appropriately.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Stock Exchange Agreement

 

On March 26, 2026, BioCorRx Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), entered into a stock exchange agreement (the “Agreement”) with Lourdes Felix, Chief Executive Officer of the Company and a member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), Louis C Lucido, President of the Company and a member of the Board, and Kent Emry (collectively with Lourdes Felix and Louis C Lucido, the “Shareholders”), a member of the Board, pursuant to which the Shareholders agreed to transfer to the Company an aggregate of 1,215 shares of common stock of BioCorRx Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Nevada corporation, which is a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Subsidiary”), representing in the aggregate approximately 12.15% of the outstanding common stock of the Subsidiary, in exchange for an aggregate of 2,263,371 shares (the “Parent Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Exchange”).

 

The Exchange was in connection with the Company’s Plan of Reorganization, adopted February 25, 2026, pursuant to which the Company intends to acquire control of the Subsidiary within the meaning of Section 368(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Exchange is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Code.

 

The Parent Shares constitute the sole consideration to be issued to the Shareholders and no cash or other property was paid or transferred in connection with the Exchange. The Exchange closed on March 27, 2026.

 

On February 25, 2026, the Board approved the Exchange in accordance with the Company’s related party transaction policy.

 

The Agreement contains representations and warranties of the Company and the Shareholders which are typical for transactions of this type. In addition, the Agreement also provides the Shareholders certain registration rights for the Parent Shares, subject to certain limitations.

 

The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the form of the Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The Parent Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and are or will be, as the case may be, “restricted securities” as that term is defined by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

The issuance of the Parent Shares was made or will be made, as the case may be, in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) for the offer and sale of securities not involving a public offering. The Company’s reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act in issuing the Parent Shares was based upon the following factors: (a) the issuance of the Parent Shares was an isolated private transaction by the Company which did not involve a public offering; (b) there was no general solicitation; (c) there were no subsequent or contemporaneous public offerings of the Parent Shares by the Company; (d) the Parent Shares were not broken down into smaller denominations; (e) the negotiations for the issuance of the Parent Shares took place directly between the Shareholders and the Company; and (f) the Shareholders are accredited investors.
