WARREN, N.J., March 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tevogen (“Tevogen Bio Holdings Inc.” or “Company”) (Nasdaq: TVGN) today provided a strategic update regarding its approach to capital management and the continued commitment of its foundational stakeholders.

Dr. Manmohan Patel, MD, lead investor in Tevogen, commented, “I continue to have strong conviction in Tevogen’s proprietary ExacTcell™ platform and its potential to deliver meaningful medical innovation. As the Company advances its diversified growth strategy and moves toward operational maturity, I intend to maintain my current shareholdings as a reflection of my long-term confidence in the team, the technology, and the path ahead.”

“Tevogen was built on the principle of delivering affordable medical innovations through a highly capital-efficient business model,” said Dr. Ryan Saadi, Founder and CEO of Tevogen Bio. “Based on our current business plan and growth strategy, we do not anticipate utilizing more than one percent of our total authorized shares, including placement through the ATM, over the next twelve months or until the company becomes cash-flow positive.”

Approximately only one-fifth of total shares outstanding are in the tradable float when accounting for Tevogen’s lead investor, directors and named executive officers.

Consistent with the January 2026 update, Tevogen continues to prioritize a long-term stock-based incentive program that is strictly aligned with company milestones, including revenue and clinical targets, rather than traditional time-based vesting.

Board of Directors continues to evaluate the potential declaration of a one-time special cash dividend to shareholders, contingent upon the achievement of specified financial milestones to be determined at a future date, which could include revenue and earnings targets.

The Company continues to evaluate acquisitions that complement its immunotherapy and artificial intelligence platforms. If completed, these businesses would operate as Tevogen subsidiaries and could generate over $50 million in combined annual revenue.

GAAP accounting may not fully reflect the value of Company assets. Tevogen’s intellectual property, proprietary platforms, AI technologies, strategic partnerships, discovery lab, and manufacturing facility under development remain central to long-term value creation. Independent valuations in 2022 estimated the company at over $4 billion prior to going public. The company is exploring ways to better reflect these assets.
