Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed, in August 2024, SEED Therapeutics Inc. (“SEED”), a clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering rational molecular glue degraders for historically undruggable disease drivers, sold to Eisai and certain other third-party investors an aggregate of 5,647,059 of its Series A-3 Preferred Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $24 million at a cash purchase price of $4.25 per share.

On September 22, 2025, SEED entered into share purchase agreements with certain third-party investors to sell an aggregate of 1,411,761 of its Series A-3 Preferred Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $6 million at a cash purchase price of $4.25 per share. Closing under the share purchase agreements (the “second close”) has completed. Upon the consummation of the second close, BeyondSpring Inc. (the “Company”) and SEED Technology Limited (“SEED Technology”), a British Virgin Islands company and a majority-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company (collectively, the BYSI Entities”), is expected to own approximately 38.03% of the outstanding equity interest in SEED, calculated on an as-converted basis (excluding any shares that may be reserved under an employee stock ownership plan, or similar arrangement). The Company expects that SEED will continue to be consolidated into the financial statements of the Company since the Company remains substantive control of SEED.

This Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Series A-3 Preferred Shares, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation, or sale of the Series A-3 Preferred Shares in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On September 23, 2025, SEED issued a press release announcing the share purchase agreements, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
