SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Sept. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vaxart, Inc. (OTCQX: VXRT) (“Vaxart” or the “Company”) announced today that its 2025 special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) has been adjourned to Friday, September 19, 2025 at 8:30 a.m. Pacific Time with respect to all proposals described in Vaxart’s definitive proxy statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 6, 2025 (the “Proxy Statement”).

“We continue to believe that a listing on Nasdaq is integral to advancing our science and maximizing stockholder value,” said Steven Lo, Chief Executive Officer of Vaxart. “We look forward to engaging with our stockholders over the next two weeks to discuss this important issue and listen to their feedback.”

The reverse stock split proposal was not voted on at the September 5^th Special Meeting because the Board of Directors would like to provide stockholders with additional time to consider and vote in light of recent changes in Board composition, additional governance changes that the Board is considering and may announce, as well as potential other disclosures from the Company.

The reconvened Special Meeting will be held in a virtual-only format, which can be accessed by visiting http://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/VXRT2025SM and entering the 16‐digit control number included in your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, on your proxy card or in the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials. During the adjournment, Vaxart continues to solicit votes from its stockholders with respect to all proposals set forth in the Proxy Statement.

Proxies previously submitted with respect to the Special Meeting will be voted on all applicable proposals at the adjourned Special Meeting unless properly revoked in accordance with the procedures described in the Proxy Statement, and stockholders who have previously submitted a proxy or otherwise voted need not take any action.

Vaxart encourages all stockholders of record on July 29, 2025 who have not yet voted to do so by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on September 18, 2025. The Company also reminds those who have previously voted against reverse stock split proposal that they can change their vote in favor of the proposal.
