Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. Purchase Agreements On August 13, 2026, Dyadic International, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into (i) a common stock purchase agreement (the “Common Stock Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors (the “Common Stock Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to such Common Stock Purchasers in a registered direct offering (the “Registered Offering”) an aggregate of 3,625,000 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company, at a purchase price of $0.795 per share; and (ii) a securities purchase agreement (the “Warrant Securities Purchase Agreement” and together with the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, the “Purchase Agreements”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the purchasers thereto (the “Warrant Purchasers”) in a concurrent private placement (the “Concurrent Private Placement”), warrants (the “Common Warrants”) to purchase 3,625,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Common Warrant Shares”) at a purchase price of $0.005 per Common Warrant and with an exercise price of $0.84 per share. The closing of each of the Registered Offering and the Concurrent Private Placement is expected to occur on or about August 14, 2026, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the Registered Offering and the Concurrent Private Placement are expected to be approximately $2.9 million, before deducting offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Registered Offering and the Concurrent Private Placement, for general corporate purposes, including for research and development, sales and marketing initiatives and general administrative expenses, working capital and capital expenditures, as well as potential acquisitions and other strategic transactions. The Shares in the Registered Offering are being offered pursuant to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-273829), including a base prospectus contained therein, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 9, 2023, and that became effective on August 25, 2023, and a related prospectus supplement, dated August 13, 2026. The Purchase Agreements each contain customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company, including for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreements were made only for the purposes of such agreements and as of the specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreements and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. Registration Rights Agreement In connection with the Concurrent Private Placement, on August 13, 2026, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Warrant Purchasers pursuant to which the Company has agreed to file a registration statement to register the resale of the Common Warrant Shares within 30 days after the closing of the Registered Offering and the Concurrent Private Placement. The Registration Rights Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company and customary penalties for failure to have the registration statement timely filed or declared effective. Placement Agent Agreement In connection with the Registered Offering and the Concurrent Private Placement, the Company also entered into a placement agent agreement, dated August 13, 2026 (the “Placement Agent Agreement”), with Aegis Capital Corp. (the “Placement Agent”). The Placement Agent Agreement also includes customary indemnification and contribution provisions in favor of the Placement Agent. Standstill Restrictions The Company agreed, in the Placement Agent Agreement and the Purchase Agreements, to certain restrictions on the issuance and sale of its shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, for 90 days after the Release Date (as defined in the Warrant Securities Purchase Agreement). These restrictions do not apply to, in addition to certain customary exceptions, securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions (whether by merger, consolidation, purchase of equity, purchase of assets, reorganization or otherwise) approved by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Company. In addition, the Company’s directors, executive officers, employees and shareholders holding at least 10% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock immediately upon the closing of the Registered Offering and the Concurrent Private Placement have agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to offer, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, contract to sell, or otherwise dispose of or announce the intention to otherwise dispose of, or enter into any swap, hedge or similar agreement or arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, the economic risk of ownership of, directly or indirectly, engage in any short selling of any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of Common Stock, whether currently owned or subsequently acquired, without the prior written consent of the placement agent, for a period of 90 days after the Release Date (as defined in the Warrant Securities Purchase Agreement).
