Item 3.03. | Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders. |
The information set forth in Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.
Item 5.03. | Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year. |
On July 11, 2023, Accelerate Diagnostics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), effected a one-for-ten reverse stock split (“Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”). As previously disclosed, at its annual meeting of stockholders held on May 19, 2023, the stockholders of the Company approved a proposal to authorize the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) to effect a reverse stock split at a ratio between one-for-five (1:5) and one-for-thirty (1:30), as determined by the Board in its discretion. On July 7, 2023, the Board approved the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of one-for-ten. Following such approval, the Company filed an amendment to its Charter (the “Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect the Reverse Stock Split, with an effective time of 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on July 11, 2023 (the “Effective Time”). On July 12, 2023, the Common Stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis under a new CUSIP number, 00430H201.
No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock are instead entitled to receive a pro rata share of the proceeds from the sale of shares of Common Stock by the Company’s transfer agent, Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc. (the “Transfer Agent”). Following the filing of the Amendment, the Transfer Agent will aggregate all fractional shares that otherwise would have been issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split and those shares will be sold into the market. Stockholders who would otherwise hold a fractional share of Common Stock will receive a pro rata cash payment from the proceeds of that sale in lieu of such fractional share.
The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01. | Other Events. |
The Company currently has on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) (i) a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-262494) that relates to the resale of shares of Common Stock that may be offered for sale from time to time by the selling stockholder named in the prospectus included as part of such registration statement, and (ii) Registration Statements on Form S-8 (Nos. 333-187439, 333-199992, 333-225585, 333-233185, 333-239052, 333-265126 and 333-272792) that register shares of Common Stock to be issued under the Company’s long-term incentive plans. SEC regulations permit the Company to incorporate by reference future filings made with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, prior to the termination of the offerings covered by registration statements filed on Form S-3 or Form S-8, as applicable. The information incorporated by reference is considered to be part of the prospectus included within each of those registration statements. Information in this Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is therefore intended to be automatically incorporated by reference into each of the active registration statements listed above, thereby amending them. Pursuant to Rule 416(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the amount of undistributed shares of Common Stock deemed to be covered by the effective registration statements of the Company described above are proportionately reduced as of the Effective Time to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of one-for-ten.

Exhibit 3.1
CERTIFICATE OF AMENDMENT
TO THE
CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
OF
ACCELERATE DIAGNOSTICS, INC.
Accelerate Diagnostics, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Corporation”), hereby certifies as follows:
FIRST: That the following resolutions were duly adopted by the Corporation’s Board of Directors, in accordance with the Corporation’s Bylaws and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, setting forth a proposed amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation as follows:
RESOLVED, that the Certificate of Incorporation be amended by inserting the following text as a new third paragraph of Article IV (Capital Stock) (the “Amendment”):
“That, effective on the filing of this Certificate of Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation with the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”), a one-for-10 reverse stock split of the Corporation’s Common Stock shall become effective, pursuant to which each 10 shares of Common Stock outstanding and held of record by each stockholder of the Corporation (including treasury shares) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be reclassified and combined into one validly issued, fully-paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock automatically and without any action by the holder thereof upon the Effective Time and shall represent one share of Common Stock from and after the Effective Time (such reclassification and combination of shares, the “Reverse Stock Split”). The par value of the Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split shall remain at $0.001 per share. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. In lieu thereof, each holder shall be entitled to receive its pro rata share of the proceeds from the sale of shares of Common Stock by Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc. (the “Transfer Agent”). The Company shall instruct the Transfer Agent to aggregate all fractional shares and to arrange for them to be sold at the then prevailing prices on the open market on behalf of those stockholders otherwise entitled to receive a fractional share of Common Stock. The Company shall direct the Transfer Agent to conduct such sales in an orderly fashion and at a reasonable pace. After the completion of such sales, the Company shall direct the Transfer Agent to remit a cash payment to each stockholders entitled to a cash payment in an amount equal to its pro rata share of the total net proceeds of such sales.”
FURTHER RESOLVED, any officer of the Corporation is authorized and directed to execute and file the Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and to take such further actions and execute such additional documents and make such additional filings as such officer shall determine to be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the foregoing resolutions.
FURTHER RESOLVED, that all actions heretofore taken by the officers, directors, or agents of the Corporation relating to the foregoing resolutions, be, and hereby are, approved, adopted, ratified, and confirmed in all respects.
SECOND: The foregoing Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation was duly adopted by the Corporation’s Board of Directors in accordance with the provisions of Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
THIRD: The foregoing Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation was duly approved by the Corporation’s stockholders in accordance with the provisions of Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
1
FOURTH: The Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation shall become effective on July 11, 2023 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation has caused this Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to be signed by the undersigned duly authorized officer who declares under penalty of perjury that the matters set forth in the foregoing Certificate of Amendment are true and correct to his knowledge.
