Rhea-AI Filing Summary
INTERPACE BIOSCIENCES, INC. (IDXG) approved and is implementing a 1-for-5 reverse stock split of its common stock. Stockholders authorized the board on August 20, 2026 to choose a ratio between 1:2 and 1:10, and the board set the final ratio at 1-for-5.
The reverse split becomes effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on August 27, 2026, when every five shares of common stock will be combined into one share, with no change to the $0.01 par value. Approximately 27.7 million shares outstanding will become approximately 5.5 million, while authorized shares remain unchanged, increasing potential headroom.
Fractional shares will not be issued and will instead be rounded up to the nearest whole share.

Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
At the annual meeting of stockholders held on August 20, 2026, the stockholders of Interpace Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) authorized the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”), in its discretion, to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), to effect a reverse split of the Company’s outstanding common stock, par value $0.01 (the “Common Stock”), at a ratio between one-for-two (1:2) and one-for-ten (1:10), with such final ratio to be determined by the Board. The Board determined to set the reverse stock split ratio at one-for-five (1:5) (the “Reverse Stock Split”) and approved the final form of the Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to effectuate the Reverse Stock Split (the “Certificate of Amendment”). The Certificate of Amendment was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on August 25, 2026, and the Reverse Stock Split will become effective in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Amendment at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on Thursday, August 27, 2026 (the “Effective Time”).
At the Effective Time, every five shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding will be automatically combined into one share of issued and outstanding Common Stock, without any change in the par value per share.
Fractional shares will not be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, any fractional shares of the Company’s Common Stock that would have otherwise resulted from the Reverse Stock Split will be rounded up to the nearest whole share.
Stockholders who are holding their shares of Common Stock electronically in direct registered book-entry form with Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), or in “street name” (through a broker, bank or other holder of record) will not need to take action. The Reverse Stock Split will automatically be reflected in the Transfer Agent’s records and on such stockholders’ next account statement. Stockholders holding paper certificates that are issued and outstanding and were not exchanged as part of previous corporate actions will be automatically canceled and exchanged for book-entry shares.
The Common Stock is expected to begin trading on the OTCID quotation system (“OTCID”) on a Reverse Stock Split - adjusted basis as of the commencement of market open on Thursday, August 27, 2026. Interpace’s ticker symbol on the OTCID will temporarily change to IDXGD for a period of 20 trading days, including the effective date. In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, the CUSIP number for the Common Stock has been changed to 46062X 402.
The Reverse Stock Split will result in a proportionate adjustment to the per share exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options, as well as the number of shares of Common Stock eligible for issuance under the Company’s newly adopted 2026 Incentive Stock Plan and 2026 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (as defined in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the Security Exchange Commission on August 26, 2026).
The information set forth herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Certificate of Amendment that effectuated the Reverse Stock Split, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Exhibit 99.1
Interpace Biosciences Announces Reverse Stock Split to Support Proposed Nasdaq Uplisting
PARSIPPANY, NJ, August 26, 2026 – Interpace Biosciences, Inc. (OTCID: IDXG) (“Interpace” or the “Company”), an emerging leader in enabling personalized medicine, today announced that it will effect a 1-for-5 reverse stock split (“Reverse Stock Split”) of its issued and outstanding common stock. The Reverse Stock Split will become effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on August 27, 2026, and Interpace common stock is expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on the OTCID quotation system (“OTCID”) as of the commencement of market open that same day. Interpace’s ticker symbol on the OTCID will temporarily change to IDXGD for a period of 20 trading days, including the effective date. The new CUSIP number for the common stock following the Reverse Stock Split will be 46062X402.
After the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, the number of outstanding shares of common stock will be reduced from approximately 27.7 million (as of the date of this press release) to approximately 5.5 million. The total authorized number of shares will not be reduced as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Proportional adjustments will be made to the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise or vesting of the Company’s outstanding stock options and restricted stock units, as well as the applicable exercise prices, and to the number of shares issuable under the Company’s equity incentive and employee stock purchase plans. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split, and fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split will be rounded up to the nearest whole share. There will be no change in the par value of $0.01 per share of the common stock as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
At the annual meeting of stockholders held on August 20, 2026, the Company’s stockholders voted to approve a proposal granting the Company’s Board of Directors the discretion to amend the Company’s certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock at a ratio in the range from one-for-two to one-for-ten. The Company’s Board of Directors approved a 1-for-5 reverse stock split on August 20, 2026. The reverse stock split is primarily intended to bring the Company into compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”). There is no guarantee that the Company will meet the minimum bid price requirement, and even if it does, there are additional requirements for listing on Nasdaq, including the requirement to have a $15 million market value of unrestricted publicly held shares.
Interpace’s transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, will provide information to stockholders regarding their stock ownership following the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders holding their shares in book-entry form or through a bank, broker, or other nominee do not need to take any action in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Their accounts will be automatically adjusted to reflect the number of shares owned. Beneficial holders are encouraged to contact their bank, broker, or other nominee with any procedural questions.
Tom Burnell, CEO of Interpace, commented: “This reverse stock split is a key part of our strategy to uplist our common stock to Nasdaq, which we believe will help support our planned growth and attract a broader range of investors.”
