Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Insights

Bio-Path outlines restructuring steps, related-party issuance, and governance shifts.

Bio-Path Holdings issues new Series S Preferred shares and 2,000,000 warrants to Steel Giants Advisors LLC, an entity controlled by its CEO, for $10,000 of accrued payables. This concentrates voting influence via preferred stock carrying one percent diluted voting power per share while adding warrant-linked potential equity overhang.

The company is pursuing domestication to Wyoming and is in discussions with payables and creditors while assessing restart of Phase 1 and Phase 2 trials in AML, solid tumors, obesity, and other areas. These steps indicate an operational and capital structure reset, but actual outcomes depend on creditor agreements and trial reactivation feasibility.

Additional moves include hiring Farrington Capital Group for technology and advisory work, forming a Strategic Advisory Board with future option incentives, and canceling a 1-for-30 reverse split previously approved in December 2024. Together, these actions frame a management-led turnaround effort whose results will become clearer in subsequent company disclosures.

On January 2, 2026, we issued Steel Giants Advisors LLC (“SGA”) fifty-one (51) shares of a newly created Series S Preferred stock each convertible into one (1) common share and holding one (1) percent of the diluted votes of the corporation. Additionally, we issued SGA two million (2,000,000) common stock purchase warrants with a five-year expiration, cashless exercise feature, and an exercise price of $0.0001. SGA is an advisory firm controlled by our CEO Vikram Grover. $10,000 of accrued payables owed to SGA, under our consulting agreement with SGA signed October 24, 2025, were used as consideration for the Series S Preferred shares and warrants.

 

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

 

On February 12, 2026, we filed paperwork with the Secretary of State of Wyoming to domesticate the corporation to Wyoming. We expect this application to be approved in March 2026, though there can be no assurances of timing or successful completion.

 

Item 7.1 Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

We are in various stages of analysis, discussion and negotiation with our payables and creditors regarding restructuring our relationships, restarting some or all our Phase 1 and Phase 2 drug trials targeting AML, solid tumors, obesity, and other afflictions. We intend to preserve drug supplies stored at key vendors and petition for shelf-life extensions of the doses, though there can be no assurances of successful outcomes.

 

Item 8.1 Other Events.

 

On January 24, 2026, we engaged Farrington Capital Group, Inc. to enhance our online and technological platforms including our corporate website @ www.biopathholdings.com, make introductions to strategic advisors, and review our operations. As compensation, we paid FCG $1,000 cash and issued 100,000 restricted common shares.

 

On February 10, 2026, we approved the creation of a Strategic Advisory Board to include medical research professionals, distinguished members of the academic community, and medical industry leaders to guide us through our planned turnaround. To support this effort, we reserved up to 1,500,000 million incentive stock options to be issued to several individuals over a three-year term commitment in equal annual issuances at or around market prices on issuance. We have made offers to several candidates who are in various stages of review and acceptance, though there can be no assurances they will accept the proposed terms.

 

On February 21, 2026, our majority shareholder Steel Giants Advisors LLC and our Board of Directors canceled a 1-30 reverse split of our common stock previously approved by our shareholders and Board of Directors on December 12, 2024. All parties agreed the proposed corporate action was not in the interests of shareholders or the corporation given our limited number issued and outstanding common shares.
