Key Changes

  • high

    TransCode prepaid $840,975 to Yorkville to waive an Amortization Event triggered by its stock trading below the $1.72 floor price for 10 of 14 trading days.

  • high

    The prepayment includes $759,000 principal, a $75,900 prepayment premium, and $6,075 accrued interest, reducing outstanding convertible note principal to about $4.1 million.

  • medium

    Yorkville waived any Amortization Event occurring on or before September 30, 2026, and any that may occur through October 31, 2026.

Summary

TransCode Therapeutics disclosed that its stock traded below the $1.72 floor price for 10 of 14 trading days, which would have triggered an Amortization Event under its convertible notes with Yorkville. To avoid accelerated principal payments, the company prepaid $840,975, including a 10% prepayment premium, reducing the outstanding principal to about $4.1 million. Yorkville waived the event through October 31, 2026.

The prepayment and waiver provide temporary relief, but the stock's weakness relative to the floor price remains a concern. If the stock continues to trade below the floor price after October 31, 2026, another Amortization Event could occur, potentially requiring further prepayments or accelerated payments. Investors should note the company's remaining debt obligation and the ongoing risk tied to its stock price.
