Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Under a related prospectus supplement to its existing Form S-3 shelf registration, the company may offer and sell shares with an aggregate offering price of up to $75 million through or to Jefferies.

Sales will be made from time to time as “at the market offerings” under Rule 415(a)(4), in block trades, on the Principal Market, or into other existing trading markets, with Jefferies earning a 3.0% commission on the company’s aggregate gross proceeds. OS Therapies will also reimburse Jefferies for certain legal fees up to $100,000. The agreement can be suspended or terminated by either party with notice, and it includes customary representations, covenants, and indemnification provisions.

OS Therapies states that any net proceeds from the ATM program, if raised, are intended to fund clinical development activities and trials, advance research and development programs, and potentially acquire or invest in complementary technologies, product candidates, or businesses, although it currently has no definitive commitments for such acquisitions or investments.

Filing Explained

The program creates potential dilution rather than completed issuance, while June 30 cash equaled 3.3 days of the last quarter’s operating cash use.

On August 21, 2026, OS Therapies reported entering an Open Market Sale Agreement for an at-the-market program permitting up to $75 million of common-stock sales.

The disclosed state is financing capacity rather than a completed issuance; later sales would be needed for the program to produce shares or proceeds. If shares are issued, the total share count would rise and existing holders’ percentage ownership would fall, absent offsetting changes.

An at-the-market program allows the company to sell new shares gradually into the open market at prevailing prices rather than through one single priced deal.

As of June 30, 2026, the company reported $205,035 of cash and equivalents and a second-quarter operating cash outflow of $5,532,872. Using that quarter’s operating cash use as the basis, the cash balance equals 3.3 days of cash use.

Future filings or placement notices reporting actual sales, prices, proceeds, or shares issued would establish how much of the authorized capacity becomes completed financing and dilution.

Open Market Sale Agreement financial
"entered into an Open Market Sale Agreement℠ (the “Sales Agreement”)"
A contract that lets a shareholder or issuer authorize a broker to sell stock into the public market over time rather than to one specific buyer. Think of it like hiring a salesperson to quietly sell items from your garage in small batches so you don’t crash the price; for investors it matters because it increases supply and liquidity, can put downward pressure on the share price, and signals an upcoming flow of shares into the market.
at the market offering financial
"in connection with the Company’s “at the market offering” program"
An at-the-market offering is a way a company raises cash by selling newly issued shares directly into the open market at prevailing prices, rather than all at once in a single deal. Think of it like turning a faucet on to drip shares into trading at current prices when needed; it gives the company flexibility to raise funds over time but can dilute existing shareholders and potentially affect the stock price, which investors should monitor.
shelf registration statement regulatory
"under the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3"
A shelf registration statement is a document a company files with regulators that allows it to sell shares or bonds quickly when it’s a good time to raise money. It’s like having a pre-approved plan ready so the company can act fast without going through lengthy paperwork each time they want to sell, making fundraising more flexible.
Rule 415(a)(4) regulatory
"deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4)"
Rule 415(a)(4) is a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rule that lets a company add more securities to an already effective shelf registration, so those additional shares or bonds can be sold later without filing a completely new registration. For investors it matters because it gives the issuer the flexibility to raise cash quickly—like having an open credit line—while creating the possibility of dilution or changes in supply that can affect share price.
Principal Market financial
"sales made directly on the Principal Market (as defined in the Sales Agreement)"
Offering Type ATM
Use of Proceeds Fund clinical development activities including ongoing and planned clinical trials, advance research and development programs, and acquire or invest in complementary technologies, product candidates or businesses aligned with the company’s strategic objectives.

CURRENT REPORT ON FORM 8-K

 

OS Therapies Incorporated

 

August 21, 2026

  

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On August 21, 2026, OS Therapies Incorporated (the “Company”) entered into an Open Market Sale Agreement℠ (the “Sales Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC (the “Sales Agent”), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell shares of its common stock from time to time through or to the Sales Agent in connection with the Company’s “at the market offering” program (the “ATM Offering”).

 

On August 21, 2026, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a prospectus supplement (the “Prospectus Supplement”) relating to the ATM Offering under the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-289443) filed by the Company with the SEC on August 8, 2025 and declared effective by the SEC on August 25, 2025 (the “Registration Statement”). Pursuant to the Prospectus Supplement, the Company may offer and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $75 million pursuant to the Sales Agreement (the “Shares”).

 

From time to time during the term of the Sales Agreement, the Company may deliver a placement notice to the Sales Agent specifying the length of the selling period, the amount of Shares to be sold, any limitation on the number of Shares that may be sold in any one trading day and the minimum price below which sales may not be made. Upon its acceptance of the placement notice from the Company, the Sales Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to solicit offers to purchase Shares, under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Sales Agreement, in transactions that are deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in block transactions, sales made directly on the Principal Market (as defined in the Sales Agreement) or sales made into any other existing trading markets of the Shares. The Company may instruct the Sales Agent not to sell Shares if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by the Company in any placement notice. The Company or the Sales Agent may suspend the offering of the Shares at any time upon proper notice and subject to other conditions.

 

The Company will pay the Sales Agent a commission equal to 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds the Company receives from each sale of Shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement. In addition, we have agreed to reimburse the Sales Agent for the fees and disbursements of its counsel, payable upon execution of the Sales Agreement, in an amount not to exceed $100,000, in addition to certain ongoing disbursements of its legal counsel.

 

Under the terms of the Sales Agreement, the Company also may sell Shares to the Sales Agent, as principal for its own account, at a price to be agreed upon at the time of sale.

 

The ATM Offering of the Shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the sale of all Shares subject to the Sales Agreement and (ii) the termination of the Sales Agreement as permitted therein. The Company and the Sales Agent may each terminate the Sales Agreement at any time upon 10 days’ prior notice.

 

The Company made certain customary representations, warranties and covenants concerning the Company and the Shares in the Sales Agreement and agreed to indemnify the Sales Agent against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

A copy of the Sales Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the material terms of the Sales Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
