Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On November 24, 2025, ProMIS Neurosciences Inc. (the “Company”) filed articles of amendment (the “Articles of Amendment”) to its Articles, as amended from time to time, to effectuate a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares, no par value per share (the “Common Shares”).
As previously disclosed, at its 2025 Special Meeting of Stockholders held on November 17, 2025 (the “Special Meeting”), and upon the recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), the Company’s stockholders approved a resolution authorizing the filing of the Articles of Amendment to effect a reverse stock split of the Common Shares at a ratio ranging from one-for-five and one-for-twenty-five, as determined by the Board in its discretion (the “Share Consolidation Resolution”).
The Share Consolidation Resolution was described in detail under “Proposal No. 1: Share Consolidation” beginning on page 12 of the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 3, 2025 (the “Proxy Statement”) in connection with the Special Meeting. The text of the Articles of Amendment was included in Appendix A of the Proxy Statement.
On November 17, 2025, the Board approved a reverse stock split of the Common Shares at a ratio of one-for-twenty-five. Effective as of 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on November 28, 2025, the Company filed the Articles Amendment to effect one-for-twenty-five reverse stock split of its Common Shares (the “Reverse Stock Split”).
As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 25 Common Shares issued or outstanding were automatically reclassified into one validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable new Common Share, subject to the treatment of fractional shares as described below, without any action on the part of the holders. Proportional adjustments were made to the number of Common Shares awarded and available for issuance under the Company’s equity incentive plans, as well as the exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Company’s outstanding stock options and other equity securities under the Company’s equity incentive plans. All outstanding warrants were also adjusted in accordance with their terms, which resulted, among other changes to the warrant terms, in proportionate adjustments being made to the number of shares issuable upon exercise of such warrants and to the exercise prices of such warrants. The Common Shares outstanding following the Reverse Stock Split remain fully paid and non-assessable. The Reverse Stock Split did not affect the number of authorized Common Shares or the par value of the Common Shares.
No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive fractional shares will automatically be entitled to receive cash in lieu of such fractional share.
Trading of the Common Shares on The Nasdaq Capital Market will commence on a split-adjusted basis at market open on November 28, 2025 under the existing trading symbol “PMN.” The new CUSIP number for the Company’s Common Shares following the Reverse Stock Split is 74346M505.
The foregoing description of the Articles of Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Articles of Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
