Soligenix, Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) (Soligenix or the Company), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing products to treat rare diseases where there is an unmet medical need, announced today that it intends to effect a reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio of 1 post-split share for every 16 pre-split shares. The reverse stock split will become effective at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, June 5, 2024. Soligenix's common stock will continue to be traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol SNGX and will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis when the market opens on Thursday, June 6, 2024. The new CUSIP number for the Company's common stock following the reverse stock split will be 834224 604.

At the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders initially convened on May 23, 2024 and reconvened on May 30, 2024, Soligenix's stockholders granted the Company's Board of Directors the discretion to effect a reverse stock split of Soligenix's common stock through an amendment to its Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation at a ratio of not less than 1-for-2 and not more than 1-for-20, with such ratio to be determined by the Company's Board of Directors.

At the effective time of the reverse stock split, every 16 shares of Soligenix's issued and outstanding common stock will be converted automatically into one issued and outstanding share of common stock without any change in the par value per share. Stockholders holding shares through a brokerage account will have their shares automatically adjusted to reflect the 1-for-16 reverse stock split. It is not necessary for stockholders holding shares of the Company's common stock in certificated form to exchange their existing stock certificates for new stock certificates of the Company in connection with the reverse stock split, although stockholders may do so if they wish.

The reverse stock split will affect all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder's percentage interest in the Company's equity, except to the extent that the reverse stock split would result in a stockholder owning a fractional share. Any fractional share of a stockholder resulting from the reverse stock split will be rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares. The reverse stock split will reduce the number of shares of Soligenix's common stock outstanding from 15,799,837 shares to approximately 987,490 shares, subject to adjustment for the rounding up of fractional shares. Proportional adjustments will be made to the number of shares of Soligenix's common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of Soligenix's equity awards and warrants, as well as the applicable exercise price. Stockholders with shares in brokerage accounts should direct any questions concerning the reverse stock split to their broker; all other stockholders may direct questions to the Company's transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, toll-free at (877) 248-6417 or at (718) 921-8317.
