Insights

Virax shareholders backed board, reverse split range, and a new equity plan.

Virax Biolabs shareholders approved all proposals at the adjourned 2025 annual meeting, including auditor ratification, election of five directors, and updated governing documents aligned with a revised share capital structure following an approved share consolidation.

The share consolidation, at a ratio between one-for-ten and one-for-fifteen, reduces the number of ordinary shares while increasing par value per share. This kind of action can affect trading dynamics and is often used to manage per-share price levels or share count structure.

The 2026 Equity Incentive Plan and UK Sub-Plan reserve 2,000,000 ordinary shares for potential future grants, which may influence future dilution depending on how awards are made over time. Subsequent company disclosures will describe specific grant activity and any chosen consolidation ratio within the approved range.

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On March 11, 2026, Virax Biolabs Group Limited (the “Company”) convened the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) commencing at 2:00 PM GMT at BioCity Glasgow, Bo’Ness Road, Newhouse, Lanarkshire, ML1 5UH. On January 11, 2026, the record date for the Annual Meeting, there were 8,941,432 ordinary shares of the Company entitled to be voted at the Annual Meeting, 15.74% of which were present at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy.

 

The Company's Articles of Association state that no business shall be transacted at any meeting of shareholders unless a quorum is present; a quorum is one or more shareholders holding shares that represent not less than one-third of the outstanding shares carrying the right to vote at such meeting present in person or by proxy. As such, at the date and time scheduled for the Annual Meeting, there was not a quorum present, nor did a quorum become present within 15 minutes of the scheduled meeting time. In accordance with the Company's Articles of Association, if a quorum is not present within fifteen minutes of the time appointed for the meeting, then the meeting shall stand adjourned to the same time and place seven days from then, or to such other time or place as is determined by the Directors. As a quorum was not so present, the Annual Meeting was adjourned to 2:00 PM GMT on March 18, 2026, at the same location.

On March 18, 2026, at 2:00 PM GMT the Company reconvened the Company’s 2025 Adjourned Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Adjourned Annual Meeting”) at BioCity Glasgow, Bo’Ness Road, Newhouse, Lanarkshire, ML1 5UH. At the start of the Adjourned Annual Meeting, there were present in person or by proxy shareholders holding shares that represent 15.78% the outstanding shares carrying the right to vote at such meeting. The Company's Articles of Association provide that if a quorum is not present within fifteen minutes of the time appointed for such an adjourned meeting, then the shareholders present in person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum. At the end of such fifteen minutes, a quorum of one-third was not present, and thereafter the shareholders present in person or by proxy constituted a quorum for the Adjourned Annual Meeting.

 

Three items of business were acted upon by the Company’s shareholders at the Adjourned Annual Meeting, each of which was approved by the shareholders.

1. Shareholders ratified and approved the appointment of Reliant CPAs PC as auditor of the Company for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, and to authorize the board of directors of the Company to fix the remuneration of the auditor (the “Auditor Proposal”).
