BioLargo Announces Results of 2025 Annual Stockholder Meeting

No immediate intention to proceed with a reverse stock split – **** “This vote empowers us to be ready when the time is right.

Westminster, CA – June 26, 2025 – BioLargo, Inc. (OTCQX:BLGO), a company that creates and commercializes sustainable technologies to solve tough environmental and cleantech challenges, today announced that all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders at its 2025 annual stockholder meeting were approved. Although the proposal authorizing the company’s board to implement a reverse stock split in a ratio of up to 10-for-1 was approved, the board has no immediate plans to do so, instead intending to do so only in conjunction with an uplisting to Nasdaq or the New York Stock Exchange, and only if needed to meet the minimum price requirement.

BioLargo’s CEO Dennis Calvert commented, “We believe BioLargo is at a pivotal moment in its journey, with momentum building across multiple fronts of our business. As we execute on our commercial strategy, we expect our stock price to increase. In such a scenario, we want to be fully prepared to take the next strategic step—uplisting to a national exchange—to expand our reach and attract institutional investors, enhance trading liquidity, and build a broader base of long-term stockholders. While we currently meet all key qualifications for uplisting except stock price, our Board of Directors believes it's prudent to have the flexibility to act decisively if market conditions align with our growth. This vote empowers us to be ready when the time is right.”

BioLargo filed a Form 8-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission disclosing the voting results on January 25, 2025 (https://www.biolargo.com/sec-filings).
