[{"type":"text","content":"Company reiterates support of proposals for the authorization to increase number of shares available for issuance by the Company and authorization for the Board to effect a reverse stock split at their discretion\nVideo to shareholders from John Climaco, CEO of CNS Pharmaceuticals now available on the Company's website\nHOUSTON, July 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- CNS Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP) (\"CNS\" or the \"Company\"), a biopharmaceutical company specializing in the development of novel treatments for primary and metastatic cancers in the brain and central nervous system, today urged shareholders to vote in favor of the proposals outlined in the Company's Definitive Proxy Statement (the \"Proxy\") for the upcoming Annual Shareholder Meeting to be held Wednesday, July 27, 2022.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \nThe proposals outlined in the Proxy include the authorization to increase the number of shares available for issuance by the Company and the authorization for the Board of Directors to effect a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, at a split ratio of between 1-for-2 and 1-for-30 at their discretion.\n\"While we remain whole-heartedly dedicated to the advancement of our potentially pivotal global trial of Berubicin, we must also focus on our continued strategic fiduciary obligations to all stakeholders. After careful thought and consideration by both the management team and the board of directors, we strongly believe having these tools available at our discretion will enable us to effectively finance the Company and thereby drive the ongoing clinical development forward.
