An update from Aspire Biopharma Holdings ( (ASBP) ) is now available.

On January 1, 2026, Aspire Biopharma Holdings entered into exchange agreements with certain former PowerUp Acquisition Corp. sponsor-lenders to convert approximately $1.75 million of outstanding debt, originally incurred under March 4 and May 9, 2024 subscription agreements, into common stock. Under the deals, each holder may submit up to four exchange notices by January 31, 2026, swapping tranches of up to 30% of their respective balances at a per-share price equal to the prior trading day’s closing price minus $0.01, with the resulting shares issued as freely tradeable stock; the company also gained flexibility to repay portions of remaining balances from the proceeds of any future financing above $3 million, potentially improving its capital structure by reducing debt while giving accredited investors structured equity and cash-out options.
