Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Steakholder Foods Ltd. entered into a definitive securities purchase agreement for a private placement of pre-funded warrants and unregistered Series E and Series F warrants, each series covering up to 1,750,000 ADSs, with each ADS representing 12,000 ordinary shares. The transaction closed on August 3, 2026, generating approximately $3.5 million in gross proceeds, assuming full exercise of the pre-funded warrants.

The Series E and F warrants have an exercise price of $2.00 per ADS, become exercisable after shareholder approval of an authorized share increase, and expire 18 months and five years, respectively, after the later of the resale registration effectiveness and that approval. If fully exercised in cash, the warrants could provide approximately $7 million in additional gross proceeds. Use of proceeds is for research and development, business growth, working capital and general corporate purposes.

Warrants include a 4.99% beneficial ownership cap and allow cashless exercise for Ordinary Warrant ADSs if no effective resale registration exists. H.C. Wainwright & Co. acted as exclusive placement agent, earning a 7.5% cash fee, expense reimbursements and 122,500 placement agent warrants at $2.50 per ADS. The company agreed to near-term restrictions on additional issuances and to avoid “variable rate transactions” for one year, and entered into a Registration Rights Agreement to register the warrant ADSs for resale.

Filing Explained

Pre-funded warrants are immediately exercisable, while ordinary warrant shares remain conditional on shareholder approval and resale registration is still pending.

The closed offering includes pre-funded warrants for up to 1,750,000 ADSs at a $0.01 exercise price, and those warrants are immediately exercisable; the filing establishes exercisability, not exercise or issuance.

Unlike those pre-funded warrants, the Series E and Series F warrants remain gated until shareholder approval of the authorized-share increase, leaving their potential additional share issuance conditional.

Under the July 31, 2026 Registration Rights Agreement, the company must file a resale registration statement within 15 calendar days and seek effectiveness within 45 days, or 75 days if the SEC reviews it.

The securities were issued in a private placement and remain unregistered in the filing; the resale-registration commitment is therefore a future registration step, not evidence that the warrant ADSs are currently registered, offered for resale, or sold.

Pre-Funded & Ordinary Warrants Coverage 1,750,000 ADSs per series Maximum ADSs underlying pre-funded, Series E and Series F warrants
Initial Gross Proceeds $3.5 million Gross proceeds from the offering, assuming full exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants
Potential Additional Proceeds approximately $7 million Potential gross proceeds if Series E and F warrants are fully exercised in cash
Warrant Exercise Price $2.00 per ADS Exercise price for Series E and Series F warrants
Placement Agent Warrants 122,500 ADSs ADSs underlying placement agent warrants (7.0% of Pre-Funded Warrants placed)
Placement Agent Cash Fee 7.5% of gross proceeds Percentage fee on gross proceeds from the sale of warrants
Beneficial Ownership Cap 4.99% Maximum ordinary share ownership after warrant exercise for any holder
ADS to Ordinary Share Ratio 12,000 ordinary shares per ADS Each ADS represents twelve thousand ordinary shares of the company
Pre-Funded Warrants financial
"issuance and sale ... of pre-funded warrants (“Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase"
Pre-funded warrants are financial instruments that give investors the right to purchase a company's stock at a set price, but with most or all of the purchase price paid upfront. They function like a coupon or gift card for stock, allowing investors to buy shares later at a fixed price, which can be beneficial if they want to avoid future price increases. This makes them important for investors seeking flexibility and certainty in their investment plans.
Registration Rights Agreement regulatory
"entered into a Registration Rights Agreement on July 31, 2026"
A registration rights agreement is a contract that gives investors the option to have their ownership stakes officially registered with the government, making it easier to sell their shares later. This agreement matters because it provides investors with a clearer path to cash out their investments if they choose, offering more liquidity and confidence in their ability to sell their holdings when desired.
variable rate transaction financial
"will not effect or enter into an agreement to effect a “variable rate transaction”"
Rule 144 regulatory
"disposed of all the securities covered thereby pursuant to Rule 144"
Rule 144 is a U.S. securities regulation that sets conditions under which restricted or insider-held shares can be legally resold to the public, such as required holding periods, availability of public information, limits on how much can be sold at once, and certain filing requirements. For investors it matters because it determines when previously locked-up shares can enter the market — like a release valve that can increase supply, affect share price, and signal insider intent.
beneficially own financial
"would beneficially own ordinary shares in excess of 4.99% of the number"
Beneficially own means having the economic rights and risks of a security—such as the right to receive dividends, sell the shares, or profit from price changes—whether or not your name appears on the official share register. Think of it like renting a car: you use it and reap the benefits even if the title lists someone else. Investors care because beneficial ownership determines who truly controls value, must be disclosed under securities rules, and can signal potential influence or trading activity that affects a stock’s price.
non-accountable expense allowance financial
"a non-accountable expense allowance of $25,000, and legal fees"

On July 31, 2026, Steakholder Foods Ltd. (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an accredited investor providing for the issuance and sale, in a private placement offering (the “Offering”), of pre-funded warrants (“Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,750,000 American Depositary Shares (“ADSs,” and the ADSs underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants, the “Pre-Funded Warrant ADSs”), each representing twelve thousand (12,000) ordinary shares, no par value, of the Company (“ordinary shares”), unregistered series E warrants to purchase up to 1,750,000 ADSs and unregistered series F warrants to purchase up to 1,750,000 ADSs, at a combined purchase price of $1.99 per Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying warrants (the series E warrants together with the series F warrants, the “Ordinary Warrants” and together with the Pre-Funded Warrants, the “Warrants”, and the ADSs issuable upon exercise of the Ordinary Warrants, the “Ordinary Warrant ADSs,” and together with the Pre-Funded Warrant ADSs, the “Warrant ADSs”). The series E warrants have an exercise price of $2.00 per ADS, will be exercisable on or after the date on which the shareholders of the Company approve the increase in the authorized ordinary shares of the Company (the “Authorized Share Increase Date”) and will expire 18 months after the later of the effective date of the resale registration statement (the “Effective Date”) and the Authorized Share Increase Date. The series F warrants have an exercise price of $2.00 per ADS, will be exercisable on or after the Authorized Share Increase Date and will expire five years after the later of the Effective Date and the Authorized Share Increase Date. The Pre-funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.01 per ADS, are immediately exercisable upon issuance and will not expire until exercised in full. The Offering closed on August 3, 2026.

 

The gross proceeds from the Offering, before deducting the placement agent’s fees and other related expenses payable by the Company, were approximately $3.5 million (assuming full exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants). The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for funding research and development and the growth of its business as well as for other working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

The exercise price of the Warrants is subject to adjustment as set forth in the Warrants for share splits, share dividends, and similar events. A holder of the Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion thereof if the holder (together with such holder’s affiliates, and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder’s affiliates or any other persons whose beneficial ownership of ordinary shares would be aggregated with the holder’s or any of the holder’s affiliates), would beneficially own ordinary shares in excess of 4.99% of the number of the ordinary shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. If at the time of exercise there is no effective registration statement registering the resale of the Ordinary Warrant ADSs, the Ordinary Warrant ADSs may be exercised on a cashless basis.

 

Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed not to (i) enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any ADSs, ordinary shares or ordinary share equivalents, or (ii) file any registration statement or amendment or supplement thereto, for a period of 60 days following the Effective Date, subject to certain customary exceptions. In addition, the Purchase Agreement provides that for a period of one year following the Effective Date, the Company will not effect or enter into an agreement to effect a “variable rate transaction” as defined in the Purchase Agreement, subject to certain customary exceptions.

 

In connection with the Offering, the Company and the purchaser entered into a Registration Rights Agreement on July 31, 2026 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), providing for the registration of the Warrant ADSs for resale on a registration statement (the “Resale Registration Statement”) to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) no later than the 15th calendar day following the date of Registration Rights Agreement. The Company has agreed to use best efforts to cause the Resale Registration Statement to be declared effective as promptly as possible, within the 45 calendar days following the date of Registration Rights Agreement (or within 75 calendar days following the date of Registration Rights Agreement in the event the SEC elects to review such registration statement) and to use best efforts to keep the Resale Registration Statement continuously effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the purchaser shall have resold or otherwise disposed of all the securities covered thereby pursuant to Rule 144, or (ii) the date on which the securities may be resold by the purchaser without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144 or any other rule of similar effect.

 

The Purchase Agreement also contains representations, warranties, indemnification and other provisions customary for transactions of this nature.

The Company also entered into a letter agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (the “Placement Agent”), pursuant to which the Placement Agent agreed to serve as the exclusive placement agent for the Company in connection with the Offering. The Company agreed to pay the Placement Agent in connection with the Offering a placement agent fee equal to 7.5% of the gross proceeds from the sale of Warrants in the Offering, a non-accountable expense allowance of $25,000, and legal fees and expenses of $50,000. The Placement Agent or its designees also received warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants” and the ADSs issuable upon exercise thereof, the “Placement Agent Warrant ADSs,” and together with the Warrant ADSs and the Warrants, the “Securities”), in an amount equal to 7.0% of the aggregate number of Pre-Funded Warrants placed in the Offering, or warrants to purchase up to 122,500 ADSs. The Placement Agent Warrants have been issued on substantially the same terms as the series F warrants issued to the investor in the Offering, except that the Placement Agent Warrants have an exercise price of $2.50 per ADS. Upon any exercise of the Warrants issued to the investor for cash, the Company agreed to pay the Placement Agent a total cash fee equal to 7.5% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the exercise of such Warrants, and Placement Agent Warrants to purchase up to 7.0% of the number of ordinary shares issuable upon the cash exercise of the Warrants.
