| PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS | SUBJECT TO COMPLETION | DATED JULY 3, 2025 |
|---|
1,456,310 Units, Each Consisting of One Share of Class A Common Stock and One Warrant to Purchase One Share of Class A Common Stock
1,456,310 Pre-Funded Units, Each Consisting of One Pre-Funded Warrant to Purchase One Share of Class A Common Stock and One Warrant to Purchase One Share of Class A Common Stock
1,456,310 Shares of Class A Common Stock Underlying the Warrants
1,456,310 Shares of Class A Common Stock Underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants
We are offering 1,456,310 units (“Units”) in a firm commitment underwritten offering, with each Unit consisting of (i) one share of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) one warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock (“Warrant”) at an assumed public offering price of $10.30 per Unit, the last reported sale price of our Common Stock as reported on The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) on June 26, 2025. The actual public offering price per Unit will be determined between us and the underwriters at the time of pricing and may be at a discount to this assumed offering price. Therefore, the assumed public offering price used throughout this prospectus may not be indicative of the actual public offering price.
We are also offering 1,456,310 pre-funded units (the “Pre-funded Units”), with each Pre-funded Unit consisting of (i) one pre-funded warrant (“Pre-funded Warrant”) to purchase one share of our Common Stock and (ii) one Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock, to those purchasers whose purchase of Units in this offering would otherwise result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately following the consummation of this offering. The purchase price of each Pre-funded Unit is equal to the price per Unit being sold to the public in this offering, minus $0.0001.
Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $12.875 (representing 125% of the assumed public offering price of $10.30 per Unit, the last reported sale price of our Common Stock as reported on Nasdaq on June 26, 2025) and expire five (5) years from date of issuance. Each Pre-funded Warrant will be immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-funded Warrants are exercised in full. For each Pre-funded Unit we sell, the number of Units that we are offering will be decreased on a one-for-one basis.
The Common Stock and Pre-funded Warrants, as the case may be, and the accompanying Warrants, can only be purchased together in this offering but will be issued separately and will be immediately separable upon issuance. Pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, we are also registering the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and Pre-funded Warrants included in the Units and Pre-funded Units offered hereby.
Our shares of Common Stock are listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “BIVI.” On July 1, 2025, the last reported sales price of our Common Stock on Nasdaq was $0.931 per share. There is no established trading market for the Pre-funded Warrants or Warrants. We intend to apply to list the Warrants on Nasdaq under the symbol “BIVIW”. We cannot guarantee that the Warrants will be approved for listing on Nasdaq. We do not intend to list the Pre-funded Warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system and do not expect a trading market to develop for the Pre-funded Warrants.
At a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders held on June 23, 2025, the Company’s stockholders approved a proposal to grant the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) authority, in its sole discretion, prior to the one-year anniversary of such special meeting, to effect a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, at a ratio between 1-for-5 and 1-for-10. On June 26, 2025, pursuant to the authority granted by the Company’s stockholders, the Board approved a reverse stock split of our Common Stock at a ratio of 1-for-10 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Reverse Stock Split will become effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on July 7, 2025, prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Other than our historical financial statements and notes thereto incorporated by reference herein, and except where otherwise noted, all references to our Common Stock presented in this prospectus have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to the Reverse Stock Split.
Investing in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 9.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
