• Registration of Over 2 Million Shares for Resale

  Aethlon Medical filed a prospectus to register 2,031,024 shares of common stock for resale by selling securityholders. These shares are issuable upon the exercise of various warrants from a December 2025 private placement.

• Significant Potential Dilution

  The registered shares represent a potential dilution of over 200% compared to the 973,213 shares currently outstanding, creating a substantial overhang on the stock.

• Limited Immediate Proceeds to Company

  The company will not receive any proceeds from the resale of these shares. Most warrants have exercise prices ($4.03, $5.04) above the current stock price ($3.00), making cash exercise unlikely and limiting immediate capital infusion from these warrants.

• Warrant Exercisability Contingent on Shareholder Approval

  The exercisability of most warrants is contingent upon obtaining shareholder approval, adding an element of uncertainty to their conversion.

This filing makes a substantial number of shares available for resale by selling securityholders, stemming from a December 2025 private placement of warrants. The 2,031,024 shares represent a potential dilution of over 200% to existing shareholders if all warrants are exercised and converted. While the company will not receive proceeds from the resale of these shares, it may receive proceeds from warrant exercises. However, most warrants are currently out-of-the-money (exercise prices of $4.03 and $5.04 vs. current stock price of $3.00), making cash exercise unlikely for those. The pre-funded warrants have a nominal exercise price, contributing to dilution without significant capital infusion. This massive overhang of shares, coupled with the company's micro-cap status, is a significant negative signal, indicating substantial future selling pressure and limited immediate financial benefit to the company.
