Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On March 16, 2026, upon the recommendation of the compensation committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Mangoceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”), and pursuant to the authority provided to the Board pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and restated, which has previously been approved by the stockholders of the Company, the Board approved an option repricing (the “Repricing”) of the outstanding stock options held by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Jacob Cohen, as of March 16, 2026 (the “Effective Date”). As permitted under the terms of the Company’s equity plans, the exercise price of each outstanding stock option with an exercise price held by Mr. Cohen was reduced to an amount which exceeded the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the Effective Date, which was $0.45 per share (the “New Exercise Price”).

In total the following options held by Mr. Cohen were re-priced to have an exercise price equal to the New Exercise Price: (a) options to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an original exercise price of $16.50 per share, granted to Mr. Jacob Cohen on August 31, 2022; (b) options to purchase 83,333 shares of the Company’s common stock with an original exercise price of $4.80 per share, granted to Mr. Cohen on December 28, 2023; and (c) options to purchase 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an original exercise price of $2.30 per share, granted to Mr. Cohen on September 9, 2025.

Mr. Cohen, as an interested director, recused himself from the Board vote on the approval of the Repricing. The remaining disinterested directors of the Board approved the Repricing in good faith, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee and Audit Committee of the Board, after careful consideration of various alternatives and a review of other applicable factors.

A copy of the amendment to Mr. Cohen’s option agreements is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporate by reference herein.
