Explanatory Note

This Registration Statement on Form S-8 (this “Registration Statement”) is being filed by Mainz Biomed N.V., a Dutch public company with limited liability (naamloze vennootschap) (the “Company”), in connection with the registration of 1,467,021 ordinary shares of the Company’s, nominal value of EUR 0.01 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), which represent the maximum number of Ordinary Shares underlying awards that are currently authorized under the Company’s 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2025 Plan”).

This Registration Statement includes a reoffer prospectus prepared in accordance with General Instruction C of Form S-8 and in accordance with the requirements of Part I of Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act’). The reoffer prospectus may be used for the reoffer and resale of Ordinary Shares on a continuous or delayed basis that may be deemed to be “restricted securities” and/or “control securities” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, that were issued to certain of our executive officers, employees, consultants and directors identified in the reoffer prospectus. The number of Ordinary Shares included in the reoffer prospectus represents Ordinary Shares issued to the selling shareholders pursuant to restricted stock awards that have been granted (all of which have vested) and does not necessarily represent a present intention to sell any or all such Ordinary Shares. 

PART I

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE SECTION 10(a) PROSPECTUS

In accordance with the instructional Note to Part I of Form S-8 as promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), the information specified by Part I of Form S-8 has been omitted from this Registration Statement on Form S-8 for offers of Ordinary Shares pursuant to the 2025 Plan. The documents containing this information will be sent or given to eligible participants as specified in Rule 428(b)(1) of the Securities Act. Such documents are not being filed by the Company with the Commission either as part of this Registration Statement or as prospectuses or prospectus supplements pursuant to Rule 424 of the Securities Act. Such documents and the documents incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement pursuant to Item 3 of Part II hereof, taken together, constitute a prospectus that meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act.

REOFFER PROSPECTUS

1,000,000 ORDINARY SHARES

MAINZ BIOMED N.V.

This prospectus relates to the reoffer and resale from time to time of up to 1,000,000 ordinary shares, nominal value of EUR 0.01 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), of Mainz Biomed N.V., a Dutch public company with limited liability (naamloze vennootschap) (the “Company”) by certain selling shareholders named herein.

The selling shareholders may offer and sell the shares described in this prospectus in a number of different ways and at varying prices. The selling shareholders may sell any, all or none of such shares, and we do not know when or in what amount the selling shareholders may sell such shares. The inclusion of such shares in this prospectus does not necessarily represent a present intention by the selling shareholders to sell any or all such shares.

Our Ordinary Shares are traded on Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “MYNZ”. On February 18, 2026, the closing price for our Ordinary Shares as reported by Nasdaq Capital Market was $0.624.

We may amend or supplement this reoffer prospectus from time to time by filing amendments or supplements as required. You should read the entire prospectus, the information incorporated by reference herein and any amendments or supplements carefully before you make your investment decision.

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See the section titled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 4 of this prospectus and in any similar section included in the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus to read about factors you should consider before investing in our securities.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) may take the view that, under certain circumstances, the selling shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that participate with the selling shareholders in the distribution of the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act. Commissions, discounts or concessions received by any such broker-dealer or agent may be deemed to be underwriting commissions under the Securities Act. See the section titled “Plan of Distribution.”

Neither the Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

Unless otherwise mentioned or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this reoffer prospectus to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or similar terms refer to Mainz Biomed N.V. and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, except where the context otherwise requires or as otherwise indicated.

The date of this prospectus is February 19, 2026.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We have not authorized anyone to provide any information or to make any representations other than those contained in this prospectus or in any free writing prospectuses that we have prepared. We do not take any responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you. The selling shareholders may offer to sell, and seek offers to buy, our Ordinary Shares only in jurisdictions where offers and sales are permitted. The information contained in this prospectus is current only as of the date on the front cover of this prospectus, regardless of the time of delivery of this prospectus or any sale of the Ordinary Shares. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since the date on the front cover of this prospectus.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider all of the information set forth in this reoffer prospectus, including our financial statements and notes thereto and the other information incorporated by reference into this reoffer prospectus, and the risk factors set forth in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and its other filings with the Commission, before you decide to purchase our securities. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial conditions, results of operations and prospects could be materially adversely affected, the value of our securities could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Sales of a substantial number of our securities in the public market by the selling shareholders and/or by our existing shareholders could cause the price of our Ordinary Shares to fall.

The selling shareholders can sell, under this prospectus, up to 1,000,000 Ordinary Shares, constituting approximately 8.0% of our outstanding Ordinary Shares, as of February 18, 2026. Depending on the price, the public shareholders may have paid significantly more than the selling shareholders for any Ordinary Shares they may have purchased in the open market based on variable market price. The securities offered in this prospectus may be resold for so long as the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, is available for use. The sale of all or a portion of the securities offered in this prospectus could result in a significant decline in the public trading price of our securities. Despite such a decline in the public trading price, the selling shareholders may still experience a positive rate of return on the securities it purchased due to the price at which the selling shareholders initially purchased the securities.

We recently issued preferred shares are committed to issuing additional preferred shares which, subject to shareholder approval, could be converted into a substantial majority of our ordinary shares.

On February 17, 2026, we entered into we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an investor that (i) provided for the sale in a private placement of three million preferred shares of various classes convertible into an aggregate of up to 27 million Ordinary Shares, subject to shareholder approval, into an aggregate of up to 9 million Ordinary Shares in exchange for $3 million and (ii) provides for the sale, upon the completion of certain conditions, in a private placement of two million preferred shares, of two different classes convertible, subject to shareholder approval, into an aggregate of up to 450 million Ordinary Shares in exchange for an additional $3 million (collectively, the “Investment”). If such shareholder approval is received, the preferred shares sold in the Investment will be convertible into approximately 95.6% of the shares outstanding as of February 18, 2026. Your voting and economic position will be greatly diluted if such approval is obtained, and the fear of such dilution may cause the market price of our Ordinary Shares to decrease significantly.

Sales, or the perception of sales, of our Ordinary Shares, including those registered in this registration statement, by us or our existing shareholders in the public market could cause the market price for our Ordinary Shares to decline.

The sale of substantial amounts of Ordinary Shares in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could harm the prevailing market price of the Ordinary Shares. These sales, or the possibility that these sales may occur, also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate.

Upon the effectiveness of this registration statement, shares held by certain of our shareholders, including the selling shareholders, will be eligible for resale without restriction. As restrictions on resale end, the market price of Ordinary Shares could drop significantly if the holders of these securities sell them or are perceived by the market as intending to sell them. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to raise additional funds through future offerings of our Ordinary Shares or other securities.

If enacted, a proposed change to the Nasdaq continued listing requirements concerning the market value of listed securities (“MVLS”), could cause us to fail to meet Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements resulting in our Ordinary Shares being delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market.

The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC has proposed amending the Nasdaq Listing Rules to require companies to maintain a minimum MVLS of $5 million. Specifically, if a company fails to have a MVLS of at least $5 million for 30 consecutive business days, it will be subject to immediate suspension and delisting without a compliance period, which period could be shortened to ten consecutive trading days if the company is then in violation of another Nasdaq continued listing requirement. These rules could take effect as early as April 2026. Based on the number of our common shares outstanding as of February 18, 2026 and the last reported sale price of our common shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market on February 18, 2026, our MVLS is approximately $7.8 million. If our MVLS decreases below $5 million for 30 consecutive days, our Ordinary Shares will be delisted under this proposed rule. However, such delisting would occur after ten consecutive business days if we were in violation of another Nasdaq continued listing violation such as having a closing price for our Ordinary Shares of below $1.00 for 30 consecutive days (as of February 17, 2026, the closing price of our Ordinary Shares had been below $1.00 for eight consecutive days).

If our common shares are suspended or delisted, it would likely have an adverse effect on the liquidity of our common shares, decrease the market price of our common shares, result in the potential loss of confidence by investors, suppliers, customers, and employees, result in fewer business development opportunities, and adversely affect our ability to obtain financing for our continuing operations. Such a suspension or delisting would jeopardize the second closing of the Investment.

We ceased to be a foreign private issuer as of January 1, 2026, which could result in significant additional cost and expense.

On January 1, 2026, we ceased to qualify as a foreign private issuer. The regulatory and compliance costs to us under U.S. securities laws as a U.S. domestic issuer may be significantly higher than we were accustomed to as a foreign private issuer. We are required to file periodic reports and registration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms with the SEC, which are more detailed and extensive in certain respects than the forms that had been available to us as a foreign private issuer. We are required under current SEC rules to prepare our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, rather than IFRS, and modify certain of our policies to comply with corporate governance practices required of U.S. domestic issuers. Such conversion of our financial statements to U.S. GAAP will involve significant time and cost. These new requirements may cause us to make errors in our disclosure controls and procedures, weaken our internal controls over financial reporting and cause us to miss important filing deadlines with the Commission or to omit necessary information, all of which could hamper your ability to make an informed investment decision in our company.

In addition, we have lost our ability to rely upon exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements on U.S. stock exchanges (including the Nasdaq Capital Market) that are available to foreign private issuers such as the ones described above and exemptions from procedural requirements related to the solicitation of proxies. As a result, we may no longer be able to take corporate actions as easily or cost-efficiently, if at all, as we could take as a foreign private issuer.

We might consider whether to redomicile to a U.S jurisdiction.

Since we are no longer a foreign private issuer, we will assess whether it is more beneficial for corporate purposes to redomicile to a U.S. jurisdiction than to remain as a public company under Dutch law. Such a redomicile could entail significant cost and time for us to undertake, could affect certain rights that you have as a shareholder and could impose additional disclosure and compliance requirements from both the SEC and Nasdaq.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) regarding Mainz Biomed N.V. and its business. Forward-looking statements are those that predict or describe future events, do not relate solely to historical matters and include statements regarding management’s beliefs, estimates, projections, and assumptions with respect to, among other things, our future operations, business plans and strategies, as well as industry and market conditions, all of which are subject to change at any time without notice. Words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “promise,” “plan,” and other expressions or words of similar meanings, as well as future or conditional auxiliary verbs such as “would,” “should,” “could,” or “may” are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. Risks, uncertainties, contingencies, and developments, including those discussed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s periodic reports and those identified in “Risk Factors”, could cause our future operating results to differ materially from those set forth in any forward-looking statement. Given these uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We disclaim any obligation to update any such factors or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect future results, events or developments.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

This prospectus relates to the reoffer and resale from time to time of up to 1,000,000 Ordinary Shares issued to the selling shareholders, or underlying equity awards issued to the selling shareholders, under our 2025 Plan. The selling shareholders may sell any, all or none of such shares and we do not know when or in what amount the selling shareholders may sell such shares. The inclusion of such shares in the table below does not necessarily represent a present intention by the selling shareholders to sell any or all such shares. However, for the purposes of the table below, we have assumed that, after the completion of this offering, all Ordinary Shares covered by this prospectus has been sold.

The number of shares to be sold by any selling shareholder under this prospectus also may be increased or decreased by a prospectus supplement. Although a person’s name is included in the table below, neither that person nor we are making an admission that the named person is our “affiliate.”

The following table sets forth (i) the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by each selling shareholder as of February 18, 2026, (ii) the number of shares to be offered for resale by each selling shareholder and (iii) the number and percentage of Ordinary Shares that each selling shareholder will beneficially own after completion of the offering, assuming that all Ordinary Shares that may be offered for resale are sold and no other Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the selling shareholders also are sold.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act and is generally determined by voting power and/or investment power with respect to securities. Unless otherwise noted, all Ordinary Shares listed above are owned of record by each individual named as beneficial owner and such individual has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the Ordinary Shares owned by each of them. Such person or entity’s percentage of ownership is determined by assuming that any options or convertible securities held by such person which are exercisable within 60 days from the date hereof have been exercised or converted as the case may be. Unless otherwise indicated, the address for each of the selling shareholders named below is c/o Mainz Biomed N.V., Robert Koch Strasse 50, 55129 Mainz, Germany.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

In this section of the reoffer prospectus, the term “selling shareholder” means and includes:

The Ordinary Shares offered by this reoffer prospectus may be sold from time to time directly by the selling shareholders. Alternatively, the selling shareholders may from time to time offer such shares through underwriters, brokers, dealers, agents or other intermediaries. The selling shareholders as of the date of this reoffer prospectus have advised us that there were no underwriting or distribution arrangements entered into with respect to the Ordinary Shares offered hereby. The distribution of the Ordinary Shares by the selling shareholders may be effected: in one or more transactions that may take place on the Nasdaq Capital Market (including one or more block transaction) through customary brokerage channels, either through brokers acting as agents for the selling shareholders, or through market makers, dealers or underwriters acting as principals who may resell these shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market; in privately-negotiated sales; by a combination of such methods; or by other means. These transactions may be affected at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at other negotiated prices. Usual and customary or specifically negotiated brokerage fees or commissions may be paid by the selling shareholders in connection with sales of our Ordinary Shares.

The selling shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers in connection with distributions of the shares or otherwise. In such transactions, broker-dealers may engage in short sales of the Ordinary Shares in the course of hedging the positions they assume with the selling shareholders. The selling shareholders also may sell shares short and redeliver the shares to close out such short positions. The selling shareholders may enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers which require the delivery to the broker-dealer of Ordinary Shares. The broker-dealer may then resell or otherwise transfer such Ordinary Shares pursuant to this reoffer prospectus.

The selling shareholders also may lend or pledge Ordinary Shares to a broker-dealer. The broker-dealer may sell the Ordinary Shares so lent, or upon a default the broker-dealer may sell the pledged Ordinary Shares pursuant to this reoffer prospectus. Any securities covered by this reoffer prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this reoffer prospectus.

The selling shareholders have advised us that they have not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriters or broker-dealers regarding the sale of their securities. There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of Ordinary Shares of the selling shareholders.

Although the Ordinary Shares covered by this reoffer prospectus are not currently being underwritten, the selling shareholders or their underwriters, brokers, dealers or other agents or other intermediaries, if any, that may participate with the selling shareholders in any offering or distribution of Ordinary Shares may be deemed “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profits realized or commissions received by them may be deemed underwriting compensation thereunder.

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in a distribution of shares of the Ordinary Shares offered hereby may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the Ordinary Shares for a period of up to five days preceding such distribution. The selling shareholders will be subject to the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, including without limitation Regulation M, which provisions may limit the timing of purchases and sales by the selling shareholders.

In order to comply with certain state securities or blue sky laws and regulations, if applicable, the Ordinary Shares offered hereby will be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In certain states, the Ordinary Shares may not be sold unless they are registered or qualified for sale in such state, or unless an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is obtained.

We will bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the Ordinary Shares offered hereby. However, the selling shareholders will bear any brokerage or underwriting commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of the Ordinary Shares offered pursuant to this reoffer prospectus. We have agreed to indemnify certain of the selling shareholders against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments to which any of those security holders may be required to make in respect thereof.

There can be no assurance that the selling shareholders will sell any or all of the securities offered by them hereby.

Item 9. Undertakings.

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
