(8) Stockholders’ Equity

Authorized and Outstanding Capital Stock

The total number of shares of the Company’s authorized capital stock is 810,000,000. The total amount of authorized capital stock consists of 800,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. As of June 30, 2026, 83,493,068 shares of common stock, 28,380 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and 522,629 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were outstanding.

Series A Preferred Stock and Warrants

On September 29, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “September 2023 Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors, in a private placement (the “September 2023 Offering”), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold 7,500 shares of Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and Preferred Tranche A, B and C Warrants (collectively, the “Preferred Warrants”). During the fourth quarter of 2023, holders exercised Preferred Tranche A Warrants for an aggregate of 59,654 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, for gross proceeds of $59.7 million, bringing the total of Series A-1 Preferred Stock issued under the September 2023 Offering and related exercises to 67,154 shares. All unexercised Preferred Tranche A and Preferred Tranche B Warrants were subsequently forfeited and the Preferred Tranche C Warrants remain outstanding and exercisable until the five (5) year anniversary of their exercisability date.

Following receipt of required stockholder approval, 24,918 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock were automatically converted into an aggregate of 3,954,674 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $6.30 per share and the remaining 42,236 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock were converted into an equal number of shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock, which are convertible into common stock at the same conversion price of $6.30 per share. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends on an as-converted-to-common-stock basis and to vote together with holders of common stock, subject to a beneficial ownership blocker of either 4.99% or 9.99%, as elected by each holder.

There were no Series A-2 Preferred Stock conversions during the six months ended June 30, 2026, and 13,639 shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock were converted into 2,164,918 shares of common stock during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Warrants

On July 21, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain accredited investors (the “July 2025 Purchase Agreement”), in connection with a private placement (the “Series B Offering”) of 1,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock,” and such shares, the “Series B Shares”), initially convertible into 100,000,000 shares of common stock (the “Conversion Shares”), together with Release Date Warrants to purchase up to 500,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock with an exercise price of $218.75 per share, and Enrollment Date Warrants to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock with an exercise price of $175.00 per share. The closing of the Series B Offering occurred on July 22, 2025 and generated gross proceeds of $175.0 million and net proceeds of $163.9 million after $11.1 million of offering costs. The Enrollment Date Warrants and Release Date Warrants were initially classified as liabilities at fair value because the underlying preferred shares were redeemable under certain conditions, with the remaining proceeds allocated to the Series B Preferred Stock.

At the Company’s special meeting of stockholders held on September 26, 2025 (the “2025 Special Meeting”), stockholders approved the issuance of the common stock underlying the Series B Preferred Stock (the “Requisite Approval”), after which 361,442 shares of Series B Preferred Stock converted into 36,144,200 shares of common stock, subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation. Upon receiving the requisite approval on September 26, 2025, the Series B Preferred Stock was no longer redeemable, and the Release Date Warrants and Enrollment Date Warrants were reclassified from liabilities to stockholders’ equity. Following the requisite approval on September 26, 2025, the change in fair value of $62.0 million was recorded as other income.

There were 20,100 Enrollment Date Warrants and 2,000 Release Date Warrants exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2026. There were no Enrollment Date Warrants or Release Date Warrants exercised during the year ended December 31, 2025.

March 2026 Public Offering

On March 17, 2026, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “March 2026 Public Offering”), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold 19,324,677 shares of common stock (the "Firm Shares"), at a public offering price of $3.85 per share, and pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 2,753,246 shares of common stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”), at a public offering price of $3.8499 per Pre-Funded Warrant (the Firm Shares price less the $0.0001 per share exercise price of each Pre-Funded Warrant). The

Company also granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 3,311,688 shares of common stock at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions (the “Optional Shares”). As of March 31, 2026, the underwriters partially exercised their option and purchased an additional 2,000,000 shares of common stock at the public offering price of $3.85 per share, less underwriting discounts and commissions, resulting in additional net proceeds of $7.2 million. In April 2026, the underwriters partially exercised their option and purchased an additional 610,188 shares of common stock at the public offering price of $3.85 per share, less underwriting discounts and commissions, resulting in additional net proceeds of $2.2 million. The remaining Optional Shares of 701,500 expired without exercise in April 2026.

The Company received aggregate net proceeds from the offering, including the partial exercise of the underwriters’ option, of approximately $88.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company. Issuance costs were allocated between the common stock and the pre-funded warrants on a relative fair value basis and charged to additional paid-in capital.

Earnout Shares

On October 22, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), the Company consummated the business combination (the “Business Combination”) contemplated by the agreement and plan of merger, dated as of June 21, 2021, as amended on August 12, 2021, among Big Cypress Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“BCYP”), Big Cypress Merger Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”), the Company, and Shareholder Representative Services LLC (the “Business Combination Agreement ”). Upon closing of the Business Combination, Merger Sub merged with SAB Biotherapeutics, with SAB Biotherapeutics as the surviving company of the merger. Upon closing of the Business Combination, BCYP changed its name to “SAB Biotherapeutics, Inc.”

The Business Combination Agreement included an earnout provision under which SAB Biotherapeutics’ pre-closing securityholders (including vested option holders) have the contingent right to receive up to an aggregate of 1,200,000 additional shares (the “Earnout Shares”), released in four equal 25% increments if, at any time during the five years following the Closing Date, the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds, $150.00, $200.00, $250.00, and $300.00, respectively, for any 20 trading days within a period of 30 consecutive trading days (or upon qualifying change in control at a per share price exceeding the applicable threshold). Of the 1,200,000 Earnout Shares, 150,806 are contingently issuable and 1,049,194 are legally issued and outstanding but will be returned to the Company if applicable VWAP thresholds are not met within the five-year period.

The Earnout Shares are indexed to the Company’s equity and meet the criteria for equity classification. On the Closing Date, the fair value of the 1,200,000 Earnout Shares was $101.3 million, recorded as stock dividend reducing additional paid-in capital, offset by the increase in additional paid-in capital associated with the Business Combination.

Shelf Registration Statement

On December 29, 2025 the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-292482) (the “Shelf Registration Statement”), declared effective on January 7, 2026 by the SEC, which includes a base prospectus that allows the Company to offer and sell, from time to time, in one or more offerings, common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, rights or units up to an aggregate public offering price of $300.0 million. The Shelf Registration Statement is intended to preserve the Company’s flexibility to raise capital from time to time, if and when needed.
