As previously reported, on July 28, 2025, the board of directors of Silexion Therapeutics Corp (the “Company”) effected a 1-for-15 reverse share split of all of the Company’s issued and outstanding, and authorized but unissued, ordinary shares (the “Reverse Share Split”). The Reverse Share Split had been approved by the Company’s shareholders pursuant to Proposal 3 presented at the 2025 annual general meeting of the Company, which was initially held on July 7, 2025 and reconvened on July 14, 2025. The Company’s ordinary shares began trading on a post-Reverse Share Split-adjusted basis on the Nasdaq Capital Market at the open of the market on July 29, 2025.
Following the Reverse Share Split, the Company has retroactively adjusted the share, per share and related option and warrant information included in the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 (which financial statements reflect the results of Silexion Therapeutics Ltd., the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary and the Company’s predecessor company from an accounting perspective, from January 1, 2024 through August 15, 2024) (the “2024 Financials”) to reflect the reduced number of ordinary shares and the increased share price which resulted from the Reverse Share Split.
The updated 2024 Financials, reflecting the Reverse Share Split, are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, and are incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.
