In July 2026, Accuray announced a comprehensive plan to strengthen its financial position and support long-term value creation, including definitive agreements with TCW Asset Management Company LLC intended to improve the company's balance sheet, provide additional liquidity, and enhance financial flexibility.

The approved proposals will enable Accuray to complete the previously announced TCW financing transaction. The approved proposals included (i) the issuance of shares of common stock in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 in connection with the company's previously announced financing transaction, (ii) an increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock, and (iii) a reverse stock split of the company's common stock, at a ratio ranging from any whole number between 1-for-15 and 1-for-40 determined by Accuray's board of directors in its discretion. The board of directors maintains the discretion to select any whole number ratio within the approved range and the exact timing of the reverse stock split. The board of directors is evaluating market conditions and other relevant factors in determining the appropriate ratio and timing for the reverse split.
