Note 11 – Stock-Based Compensation

 

Reverse Stock Split

 

On January 1, 2026, the Company effected a 1-for-30 reverse stock split of its common stock. The Reverse Stock Split did not change the par value of the Company’s common stock, which remains $0.001 per share, nor did it change the number of authorized shares of common stock.

 

Proportionate adjustments were made to the number of shares of common stock underlying the Company’s outstanding equity awards and warrants, as well as to the applicable exercise prices. All historical and per-share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.

 

Stock Incentive Plans

 

The Company’s board of directors adopted, and shareholders approved, the Co-Diagnostics, Inc. Amended and Restated 2015 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) providing for the issuance of stock-based incentive awards to employees, officers, consultants, directors and independent contractors. On August 31, 2022, the shareholders approved an increase in the number of awards available for issuance under the Incentive Plan to an aggregate of 400,000 shares of common stock.

 

The Incentive Plan expired on December 31, 2025. The Company’s board of directors adopted in March 2025, and in May 2025 shareholders approved, the Co-Diagnostics, Inc. 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2025 Plan”) providing for the issuance of stock-based incentive awards to employees, officers, consultants, directors and independent contractors. At December 31, 2025, the number of awards available for issuance under the 2025 Plan was 246,933, including unused awards which rolled over from the Incentive Plan upon its expiration. No awards have been made under the 2025 Plan.
