The information contained in this Item 2.02 and in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be incorporated by reference into any filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission made by the Company, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
Item 5.08. Shareholder Director Nominations.
To the extent applicable, the information in Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.08.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
The Company currently plans to hold its 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2024 Annual Meeting”) on August 2, 2024. The Company record date for determining the stockholders of record who will be entitled to vote at the 2024 Annual Meeting will be close of business on June 13, 2024. The time and location of the 2024 Annual Meeting will be as set forth in the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the 2024 Annual Meeting to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Because the scheduled date of the 2024 Annual Meeting is more than 30 days prior to the anniversary of the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, prior disclosed deadlines regarding the submission of stockholder proposals pursuant to Rule 14a-8 (“Rule 14a-8”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for the 2024 Annual Meeting are no longer applicable. The Company is hereby providing notice of certain revised deadlines for the submission of stockholder proposals in connection with the 2024 Annual Meeting. In order for a stockholder proposal, submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8, to be considered timely for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement and form of proxy for the 2024 Annual Meeting, such proposal must be received by the Company by June 8, 2024. The Company has determined that June 8, 2024 is a reasonable time before the Company plans to begin printing and mailing its proxy materials. Therefore, in order for a stockholder to submit a proposal for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2024 Annual Meeting, the stockholder must comply with the requirements set forth in Rule 14a-8, including with respect to the subject matter of the proposal, and must deliver the proposal and all required documentation to the Company no later than June 8, 2024. The public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of the date of the 2024 Annual Meeting will not commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for submitting a proposal pursuant to Rule 14a-8.
Generally, timely notice of any director nomination or other proposal that any stockholder intends to present at the 2024 Annual Meeting, but does not seek to have included in the proxy materials pursuant to Rule 14a-8, must be delivered no later than June 8, 2024, which is the tenth day following the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K announcing the date of the 2024 Annual Meeting. Therefore, in order for a stockholder to timely submit a director nomination or other proposal that the stockholder intends to present at the 2024 Annual Meeting, the stockholder must deliver the director nomination or proposal to the Company no later than June 8, 2024.
In addition, to comply with the universal proxy rules, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than our nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act by June 8, 2024, which is the tenth calendar day following the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K announcing the date of the 2024 Annual Meeting.

Exhibit 99.1
Scorpius Holdings Achieves 359% Year-Over-Year Increase
in Revenue for the First Quarter of 2024
Reduces operating expenses by 34% and net loss by 64%
Durham, NC – May 28, 2024 –Scorpius Holdings, Inc (NYSE American: SCPX) (‘Scorpius” or “the Company”), an integrated contract development and manufacturing organization (“CDMO”), today provided strategic, financial, and operational updates for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Jeff Wolf, CEO of Scorpius Holdings, Inc., stated, “We are successfully executing our strategy to enhance revenue and reduce costs as we seek to become cash flow positive in the near future. This quarter is indicative of this goal as we achieved a 359% increase in revenue while reducing operating expenses by 34% over the same period last year. We believe this performance reinforces the growing demand for our services and our prudent financial management. Moreover, we have built a highly scalable business model poised to generate meaningful cash flow as we continue to grow our sales and increase utilization of our state-of-the-art San Antonio campus, which we anticipate will allow us to achieve meaningful operating leverage. We are very confident that the future for Scorpius is brighter than ever, with significant industry-wide capacity shortages, and our growing revenue backlog, which stood at $10.8 million as of March 31, 2024.”
2023 Financial Results
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized $3.5 million of revenue from process development. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized $0.7 million of process development revenue and $0.1 million of license revenue. The increase in process development revenue was attributable to the expanded biomanufacturing operations and service offerings of the CDMO.
Cost of revenues were $0.9 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively, and primarily consisted of the direct cost of labor, overhead and material costs at Scorpius. The increase in cost of revenues was due to the expanded service offerings and completed milestone work on multiple CDMO contracts.
Research and development expenses were $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5.0 million and $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The decrease of $1.5 million was primarily due to decreases in marketing expense of $0.5 million, consultant labor of $0.5 million, and stock-based compensation of $0.5 million.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the change in fair value of contingent earn-out receivable, related party, was $1.0 million. This change was primarily due to an increase in expected value of the earn-out due to a new contract received by Elusys Therapeutics.
Total non-operating income was $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, which primarily consisted of $1.0 million from the sale of an intellectual property license, partially offset by $0.2 million of interest expense on finance leases, and $0.1 million change in fair value of convertible promissory note, related party. Total non-operating income was $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, which primarily consisted of $0.2 million of interest income, $0.1 million of unrealized gain on short-term investment balances, partially offset by $0.2 million of interest expense on finance leases and other expense.
Net loss attributable to Scorpius was approximately $4.4 million, or ($0.16) per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to approximately $12.8 million, or ($0.49) per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
As of March 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $1.7 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments. On May 16, 2024, the Company consummated a public offering resulting in aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $6.0 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and other offering expenses.
