MTNB: 8-K · reverse split
Matinas BioPharma Holdings' Board approved a one-for-fifteen (1:15) reverse stock split of its common stock, effective 12:01 a.m. ET on September 28, 2026. Shares will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis under the existing symbol MTNB on NYSE American when the market opens that day, and the CUSIP will change to 576810 402.
The split falls under blanket stockholder authorization granted at the June 23, 2025 annual meeting, which permitted up to two reverse splits at aggregate ratios ranging from 1:2 to 1:199 without further approval. No fractional shares will be issued — holders receive proportional cash payments — and each stockholder's percentage ownership and voting power remain essentially unchanged.
The company explicitly warned there is no assurance the split will preserve its NYSE American listing, framing this as a listing-compliance move. A 1:15 consolidation in a micro-cap biotech is typically a distress signal, and investors should watch for continued bid-price deficiency risk after the effective date.

GH Power Signs Multi-Year Hydrogen Offtake Agreement with Change Energy for Hamilton Facility Output
GH Power, the private Canadian clean-energy company proposing to combine with Matinas BioPharma (NYSE American: MTNB), signed its first commercial hydrogen offtake agreement with Change Energy Engineering and its subsidiary Hone Inc. for output from the Hamilton, Ontario facility.
Terms call for supply of up to 1,000 kilograms of hydrogen per day, with an initial term of two years after commercial operations commence; deliveries are on a best-efforts basis during an initial period of intermittent availability, and no dollar value or pricing was disclosed.
For MTNB holders, the deal is the first contracted revenue validation of GH Power's aluminum-water reactor platform ahead of the pending business combination, whose Form F-4 has not yet been filed and whose closing conditions include GH Power financing of at least $15.0 million gross, shareholder approvals, and Ontario court approvals.

Matinas BioPharma Receives Notice of Non-Compliance with NYSE American Continued Listing Standards
Matinas BioPharma received an NYSE American notice dated August 31, 2026 stating it fails the continued listing standard requiring at least $2.0 million of stockholders' equity for companies with recent operating losses. The company reported $1.8 million of stockholders' equity as of June 30, 2026 and has recorded losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in each of its five most recent fiscal years.
This adds a third active deficiency — Matinas was already non-compliant with Sections 1003(a)(ii) and 1003(a)(iii). Its compliance plan, accepted by the exchange on May 4, 2026, runs through October 2, 2027; failing to regain compliance or to make plan-consistent progress by then can trigger delisting proceedings, subject to appeal.
Trading is unaffected for now: the stock remains listed with the .BC noncompliance indicator attached, and the notice does not affect operations or SEC reporting. For a clinical-stage biotech whose lead asset MAT2203 is still pre-commercial, rebuilding equity above the threshold most likely implies a dilutive financing ahead.

MTNB: 425 · acquisition merger
Matinas BioPharma (NYSE American: MTNB) filed a Form 425 containing a sponsored Wall Street Wire report on its previously announced business combination with GH Power Inc., a Canadian critical minerals and clean energy company. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026 and would take GH Power public through a newly formed Ontario parent, GH Power International, listed on NYSE American.
GH Power's reactor technology converts recycled or primary aluminum and water into fuel-cell-grade hydrogen, high-purity aluminum oxide, and thermal energy from a single system, with claimed operational demonstration at its Hamilton, Ontario pilot facility. The company is pre-revenue, and the article frames its story around AI data center power demand and aluminum's placement on the USGS 2025 critical minerals list.
Closing remains conditioned on Matinas stockholder approval, GH Power securityholder approval, Ontario court approvals, effectiveness of a Form F-4 that has not yet been filed, a GH Power financing producing gross proceeds of at least $15.0 million, GHP International qualifying as a foreign private issuer, and NYSE American listing.
The report is paid promotion: Matinas pays Wall Street Wire $6,500 per month in cash compensation, the content is expressly labeled a form of paid advertising, and the cited third-party market data is not independently verified.

MTNB: 10-Q · periodic report
Matinas BioPharma's Q2 2026 10-Q carries substantial-doubt going-concern language: cash fell to $761,000 from $4.0 million at year-end 2025, the six-month net loss was $3.2 million, and the accumulated deficit reached $214.0 million. Management states existing cash is insufficient to fund operations for at least the next twelve months.
Post-quarter, Matinas signed a Business Combination Agreement with Canada's GH Power under which the company becomes a wholly owned subsidiary of a new pubco, with current Matinas equityholders left with roughly 9% of the combined company (0.1 Pubco share per Matinas share; Matinas valued at $24.7 million vs. GH Power at $250 million). Separately, Azurity Pharmaceuticals agreed to buy subsidiary Nanotechnologies, owner of lead asset MAT2203, for up to $21.5 million in cash plus a mid-single-digit royalty.
The company raised about $2.9 million after quarter-end via a $575K Series D preferred financing and a $2.3 million warrant inducement that reset 2025 warrant and Series C conversion prices to $0.35, while BTIG terminated the $50 million ATM program, which still had $44.2 million of unused capacity.
Matinas is out of compliance with NYSE American stockholders'-equity standards, but its remediation plan was accepted with a deadline of October 2, 2027; continued listing is also a closing condition of the pending deals, and failure to close them could force a wind-down or dissolution.

MTNB: 425 · acquisition merger
Matinas BioPharma Holdings filed a Rule 425 communication containing a Bloomberg article and CEO transcript, posted August 4, 2026 by Market One Media Group on behalf of GH Power, publicizing the business combination agreement the companies signed on July 10, 2026.
Under the deal, a newly formed Ontario corporation expected to be named GH Power International Inc. would become the public parent of both companies, with GH Power shareholders holding approximately 91% and existing Matinas stockholders approximately 9%, subject to adjustment. The combined company is expected to list on NYSE American, with closing targeted for Q4 2026 and conditioned on shareholder and securityholder approvals, a GH Power financing of at least $15.0 million gross proceeds, and listing approval.
GH Power is a pre-revenue Ontario company building modular reactors that convert scrap metals and water into clean hydrogen, thermal energy, and high-purity alumina; it discloses a limited operating history and no material revenues. The Form F-4 registration statement for the transaction has not yet been filed, leaving closing contingent on multiple approvals and financing milestones.

MTNB: S-3 · shelf registration
Matinas BioPharma Holdings, Inc. has filed a replacement registration statement on Form S-3 to extend the offering period for up to $150 million of securities. This shelf filing allows the company to offer common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, subscription rights, or units on a delayed or continuous basis.
The company intends to use the net proceeds from any future sales for working capital and general corporate purposes. However, the actual amount that can be sold is limited because the aggregate market value of the company's public float is approximately $5.6 million. Consequently, the company cannot sell securities with a value exceeding one-third of this public float in any 12-month period.
The replacement filing was made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(6) to carry forward unsold securities from a prior registration statement. As of June 15, 2026, the last reported sales price of the company's common stock was $0.75 per share.
