Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

Following the approval of the Board of Directors of Creative Medical Technology Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), the Company is effecting a reverse stock split of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a ratio of 1-for-10 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Reverse Stock Split will be effected pursuant to a Certificate of Change Pursuant to NRS 78.209 (the “Certificate”) that was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on June 1, 2023. In addition to effecting the Reverse Stock Split, the filing of the Certificate reduces the authorized number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock from 50 million to five million. A copy of the Certificate has been filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Effects of the Reverse Stock Split

Effective Date; Symbol; CUSIP Number. The Reverse Stock Split will become effective on The Nasdaq Capital Market at the open of business on June 12, 2023 (the “Effective Date”), whereupon the shares of Common Stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis. In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, the CUSIP number for the Company’s Common Stock will change to 22529Y 408.

Split Adjustment; No Fractional Shares. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the total number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock held by each stockholder will be converted automatically into the number of whole shares of Common Stock equal to (i) the number of shares of Common Stock held by such stockholder immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split, divided by (ii) 10, rounded up (if applicable) to the next whole number. No fractional shares will be issued, and no cash or other consideration will be paid in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, the Company will issue one whole share of the post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock to any stockholder who otherwise would have received a fractional share as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.

Certificates. Stockholders who hold their shares in electronic form do not have to take any action as the effect of the Reverse Stock Split will automatically be reflected in their accounts. Stockholders holding paper certificates may (but are not required to) send their certificates to the Company’s transfer agent at the address given below. The transfer agent will issue a new share certificate reflecting the terms of the Reverse Stock Split to each requesting stockholder.

Immediately after the Reverse Stock Split, each stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company and proportional voting power will remain unchanged except for minor adjustments that may result from rounding fractional shares into whole shares. The rights and privileges of the holders of shares of Common Stock will be unaffected by the Reverse Stock Split.

EXHIBIT 99.1

Creative Medical Technology Holdings Announces Reverse Stock Split

Phoenix, AZ - June 9, 2023 - Creative Medical Technology Holdings, Inc. (“Creative Medical Technology” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: CELZ), a biotechnology company focused on a regenerative approach to immunotherapy, endocrinology, urology, gynecology, and orthopedics, today announced that the company’s Board of Directors has approved a reverse stock split of its shares of common stock at a ratio of 1 for 10 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Reverse Stock Split will become effective at 9:00 a.m. Eastern time on June 12, 2023, and the Company’s common stock will open for trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market on a post-split basis on June 12, 2023 under the Company’s existing trading symbol “CELZ”. At such time, the Company’s common stock will also commence trading under new CUSIP number 22529Y 408.

We expect that the Reverse Stock Split will increase the market price per share of the Company’s common stock, bringing the Company into compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for maintaining its listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.

At the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, every ten (10) shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding will be combined into one (1) share of common stock issued and outstanding, with no change to the par value of $0.001 per share. This will reduce the Company’s outstanding common stock from approximately 14.1 million shares to approximately 1.4 million shares. The Reverse Stock Split will also reduce the authorized number of shares of the Company’s common stock from 50 million to 5 million. Fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split will be rounded up to the nearest whole share, and all currently issued shares of common stock held by a shareholder shall be aggregated for the purpose of determining whether the Reverse Stock Split would result in the issuance of a fractional share. The Reverse Stock Split will also result in an adjustment to the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Company’s outstanding equity awards and warrants and a corresponding adjustment to the exercise prices of such securities.

Stockholders who hold their shares in electronic form do not have to take any action as the effect of the Reverse Stock Split will automatically be reflected in their accounts. Stockholders holding paper certificates may (but are not required to) send their certificates to the Company’s transfer agent, VStock Transfer LLC if they would like to exchange their certificate for a new certificate representing the post-split share amount.
