The effect of resolutions 1 and 4 is solely to reduce the number of ordinary shares outstanding by a factor of 10,000 while maintaining the nominal, or par, value of £0.000001 per ordinary share. With effect from tomorrow, July 30, 2026, the ratio of ordinary shares per ADS will also be changed by a factor of 10,000 from 500,000:1 to 50:1. For clarification, these changes do not have the effect of a reverse split and the proportional ownership of holders of ordinary shares and/or ADSs will not change ( otherwise than as a result of the treatment of fractional entitlements as provided for in the Notice of Meeting) .
The share reorganization and change in ordinary share/ADS ratio will be effective from 08.00 BST (03.00 EDT) tomorrow July 30, 2026. Following the share capital reorganization there will be 51,453,281 ordinary shares of £0.000001 each outstanding, equivalent to 1,029,063 ADSs, the same number of ADSs outstanding prior to the reorganization.
The effect of resolutions 2 and 3 is to grant the Directors the authority to allot ordinary shares on a non-pre-emptive basis.

About Biodexa Pharmaceuticals PLC
Biodexa Pharmaceuticals PLC (listed on NASDAQ: BDRX) is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing a pipeline of innovative products for the treatment of diseases with unmet medical needs. The Company’s lead development programs include eRapa, under development for Familial Adenomatous Polyposis and Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer, MTX240 under development for Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST) and tolimidone, under development for the treatment of type 1 diabetes.
eRapa is a proprietary oral capsule formulation of rapamycin, also known as sirolimus. Rapamycin is an mTOR ( m ammalian T arget O f R apamycin) inhibitor. mTOR has been shown to have a significant role in the signalling pathway that regulates cellular metabolism, growth and proliferation and is activated during tumorigenesis.
MTX240 is a molecular glue, bringing two intracellular proteins, PDE3a and SLFN12, specifically co-expressed by GIST cancer cells, into close proximity to form a stable complex. This interaction stabilizes SLFN12, enabling it to drive RNase-mediated apoptosis in GIST cells through a mechanism independent of KIT or PDGFR signalling.
Tolimidone is an orally delivered, potent and selective inhibitor of Lyn kinase. Lyn is a member of the Src family of protein tyrosine kinases, which is mainly expressed in hematopoietic cells, in neural tissues, liver, and adipose tissue. Tolimidone demonstrates glycaemic control via insulin sensitization in animal models of diabetes and has the potential to become a first in class blood glucose modulating agent.
Biodexa’s headquarters and R&D facility is in Cardiff, UK. For more information visit www.biodexapharma.com .
