Origin Materials is asking stockholders to approve a Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution that would wind down the company and distribute remaining cash to investors. The board unanimously recommends voting in favor of dissolving the company and liquidating its assets under Delaware law.
If approved, the board may file a Certificate of Dissolution, sell or dispose of remaining assets, pay or reserve for all liabilities, and then make one or more cash distributions. The company currently estimates an initial liquidation distribution between $0.61 and $3.54 per share, based on 5,502,770 shares outstanding as of May 8, 2026, but warns that actual amounts could be lower or even zero.
Origin has already discontinued substantially all commercial activities and significantly reduced its workforce after an unsuccessful strategic review and capital-raising effort. Stockholders will not have appraisal rights and trading in the stock is expected to cease once the Certificate of Dissolution is filed and the final record date is set.

Origin Materials, Inc. filed its annual report describing a high-growth but financially strained transition to PET closure manufacturing. The company targets a global closures market estimated at $65 billion with mono-material PET caps designed to improve recyclability, shelf life and lightweighting.
As of December 31, 2025, Origin held $53.5 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, had an accumulated deficit of $287.8 million, and reported a $249.7 million net loss for the year, raising substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

Management is pursuing strategic alternatives, cutting about $11 million in annual operating expenses, and focusing resources on scaling its CapFormer PET closure lines while suspending its furanics platform.
