Positive
- $3.3 million in gross proceeds from preferred investment option exercises, on top of $6.4 million cash and only $1.0 million in total liabilities, supports a relatively strong liquidity position for a development-stage biotech.
- A multi-country commercial supply agreement with Fosun Diagnostics for ImmuneSelect across six Southeast Asian markets, together with restored Nasdaq bid-price compliance after a 1-for-25 share consolidation, strengthens Virax’s commercial footing and market listing status.
Negative
- None.

Virax Biolabs’ CEO James Foster Provides Shareholder Update Following Fiscal 2026 Annual Report and Fosun Diagnostics Commercial Supply Agreement

LONDON, July 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ – Virax Biolabs Group Limited (NASDAQ: VRAX) (“Virax” or the “Company”), a biotechnology company focused on immune response detection, T cell immune profiling and in vitro diagnostic technologies, today published a shareholder update from Chief Executive Officer James Foster providing context on the Company’s fiscal 2026 Annual Report and subsequent commercial, financing and Nasdaq compliance developments.
The Annual Report provides audited financial statements for fiscal year 2026, updates shareholders on the Company’s strategic focus, and reflects the Company’s recently completed 1-for-25 share consolidation. The full Annual Report is available on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s website and on the Company’s investor relations website at https://ir.viraxbiolabs.com/sec-filings/annual-reports.
Highlights:
• Audited balance sheet position: As of March 31, 2026, Virax reported cash of $6.4 million, total assets of $8.3 million, total liabilities of $1.0 million, current assets of $6.8 million and current liabilities of $0.7 million.
• Subsequent financing update: Subsequent to fiscal year end, the Company completed the exercise of preferred investment options for gross proceeds of approximately $3.3 million, further strengthening the Company’s liquidity position and balance sheet.
• Commercial progress: Subsequent to fiscal year end, Virax announced a multi-country commercial supply agreement with Fosun Diagnostics for ImmuneSelect across six Southeast Asian markets, supporting near-term commercial supply, evaluation activity and potential regional expansion.
• Disciplined investment: Research and development expenses increased to $3.7 million in fiscal 2026 from $2.0 million in fiscal 2025, while general and administrative expenses decreased to $2.7 million from $4.0 million and net loss decreased to $5.0 million from $6.1 million.
• Nasdaq compliance: Following the Company’s 1-for-25 share consolidation, Nasdaq confirmed that Virax had regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2).
• Valuation backdrop: Based on the closing price of $3.74 on July 14, 2026, Virax’s public market valuation remained below its audited cash balance and shareholders’ equity attributable to ordinary shareholders, notwithstanding the subsequent financing and recent commercial progress. Management believes the current public valuation does not fully reflect the Company’s audited financial position, clinical and development programs, commercial progress or strategic assets.
“Filing the 20-F gives investors a clearer view of Virax’s audited financial position,” said James Foster, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Virax Biolabs. “In our view, the subsequent financing, restoration of Nasdaq compliance and recent commercial progress with ImmuneSelect leave the Company better positioned to pursue near-term commercial opportunities while continuing the longer-term clinical and regulatory development of ViraxImmune™.”
The full text of Mr. Foster’s July 2026 shareholder update is reproduced below.
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
Following several significant developments in recent weeks, I wanted to provide shareholders with a concise update on Virax’s current position and priorities.
Our fiscal 2026 Annual Report provides audited visibility into the Company’s financial position. As of March 31, 2026, Virax reported cash of $6.4 million, total assets of $8.3 million, total liabilities of $1.0 million and shareholders’ equity attributable to ordinary shareholders of $7.3 million. Subsequent to fiscal year end, we completed the exercise of preferred investment options for gross proceeds of approximately $3.3 million, further strengthening our liquidity position and balance sheet. This supports continued investment in ViraxImmune™ and commercial execution for ImmuneSelect.
Based on the July 14, 2026 closing price, the Company’s public market valuation remained below its audited cash balance and shareholders’ equity attributable to ordinary shareholders, notwithstanding the subsequent financing and recent commercial progress. We do not control the market and cannot predict short-term trading, but we believe this disconnect does not fully reflect the Company’s cash position, modest liability profile, laboratory infrastructure, clinical and development activities, or the broader value potential of ViraxImmune™ and ImmuneSelect.
Subsequent to fiscal year end, we announced a multi-country commercial supply agreement with Fosun Diagnostics for ImmuneSelect across Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines, Singapore and Malaysia. The agreement is intended to support commercial supply of our research-use-only (“RUO”) immune profiling products, initially for tuberculosis-related research applications in Thailand, with potential expansion across Fosun’s regional network. We view this as an important step in developing ImmuneSelect into a practical commercial channel. Revenue generation remains an area where execution must improve, and our objective is to translate focused commercial opportunities into revenue while continuing to advance ViraxImmune™.
Following our 1-for-25 share consolidation, Nasdaq confirmed that the Company had regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2), allowing our ordinary shares to remain listed. Maintaining Nasdaq compliance is important, but it is a foundation rather than the objective. Our focus now is execution: advancing clinical validation and evidence-generation activities for ViraxImmune™, building the U.S. market-entry pathway, translating ImmuneSelect opportunities into revenue, and communicating our progress clearly. Long-term shareholder value will ultimately depend on our ability to deliver meaningful clinical, regulatory and commercial milestones while maintaining financial discipline.
Sincerely,
James Foster
Chief Executive Officer
