KalVista Pharmaceuticals sets June 2026 date for next annual stockholder meeting

KalVista Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:KALV), a $643 million market cap biopharmaceutical company, announced Thursday that its 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is scheduled for June 18, 2026. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a strong liquidity position with a current ratio of 5.35, though its overall financial health score indicates challenges ahead. The company stated that the time and location of the meeting will be provided in its definitive proxy statement, which will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to the meeting.

The company noted that the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting differs by more than 30 days from the date of its 2025 Annual Meeting. As a result, in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, stockholder proposals intended for inclusion in the proxy materials must be submitted in writing by January 6, 2026. Proposals should be sent to the Corporate Secretary at KalVista’s headquarters in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

In addition, the company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws require that stockholders who wish to present a proposal or nominate a director at the 2026 Annual Meeting, outside of the proxy statement process, must provide notice by August 31, 2025. Stockholders are encouraged to review the Bylaws for further details on advance notice requirements.

KalVista also reminded stockholders who intend to solicit proxies for director nominees, other than the company’s nominees, to comply with the additional requirements of Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act.

This information is based on a press release statement included in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
