    Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

    To the extent required by Item 3.03 of Form 8-K, the information contained in Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Report”) is incorporated herein by reference.

    Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

    As previously disclosed, on February 24, 2026, at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Decoy Therapeutics Inc. (the “Company”), the stockholders approved a proposal to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (“Certificate of Incorporation”), to effect a reverse split of the Company’s outstanding common stock, par value $0.0001 (“Common Stock”), at a ratio in the range of 1-for-4 to 1-for-15, to be determined at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), whereby each outstanding 4 to 15 shares would be combined, converted and changed into one share of Common Stock, to enable the Company to comply with The Nasdaq Capital Market’s (“Nasdaq”) continued listing requirements.

     

    On February 25, 2026, the Board approved a 1-for-12 reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”), effective March 6, 2026. On March 5, 2026, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to effect the Reverse Stock Split. The Reverse Stock Split will become effective as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on March 6, 2026 (the “Effective Time”), and the Common Stock is expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis when Nasdaq opens on March 9, 2026.

     

    When the Reverse Stock Split becomes effective, every 12 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock will automatically be combined, converted and changed into one share of Common Stock, without any change in the number of authorized shares or the par value per share. In addition, a proportionate adjustment will be made to the per share exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding stock options, restricted stock units and warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock, as applicable, and the number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive compensation plans. Any fractional share of Common Stock that would be created as a result of the Reverse Stock Split will be rounded down to the next whole share and the stockholder will receive cash equal to the market value of the fractional share, determined by multiplying such fraction by the closing sales price of the Common Stock as reported on Nasdaq on the last trading day before the Reverse Stock Split becomes effective (on a split-adjusted basis). The number of authorized shares of the Company's common stock will remain at 100 million, while the number of outstanding shares will be reduced from approximately 6.38 million to approximately 532,000.

     

    The Common Stock will continue to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol “DCOY.” The new CUSIP number for the Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split will be 79400X602.

     

    Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, the Company’s transfer agent, will act as the exchange agent for the Reverse Stock Split.

     

    For more information about the Reverse Stock Split, see the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and mailed to the Company’s stockholders on or about January 14, 2026, the relevant portions of which are incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the Certificate of Amendment is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

    Item 8.01 Other Events.

    On August 14, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the reverse split. A copy of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

    Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
