Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 16, 2026, MeiraGTx Holdings plc (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with BofA Securities, Inc. and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (the “Underwriters”), in connection with the issuance and sale by the Company in an offering of 11,111,111 ordinary shares of the Company (the “Shares”) at an offering price of $9.00 per share, less underwriting discounts and commissions, pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-276183) and a related prospectus supplement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). All of the Shares are being sold by the Company. The closing of the offering is expected to occur on April 17, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.

The Company expects to receive net proceeds from the offering of approximately $93.3 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of this offering for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures. Based on the planned use of proceeds, the Company believes that the net proceeds from this offering, together with its existing cash and cash equivalents, will be sufficient to enable it to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements, including potential commercial launches of bota-vec for the treatment of X-linked retinitis pigmentosa and AAV-hAQP1 for the treatment of radiation-induced xerostomia, in each case if approved, into the second half of 2028.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the parties thereto and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. Accordingly, the Underwriting Agreement is incorporated herein by reference only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Underwriting Agreement and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding the Company or its business, and should be read in conjunction with the disclosures in the Company’s periodic reports and other filings with the SEC.

Walkers (Cayman) LLP, Cayman Islands counsel to the Company, has issued an opinion to the Company, dated April 16, 2026, regarding the validity of the ordinary shares to be issued and sold in the offering. A copy of the opinion is filed as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements contained in this Current Report that do not relate to matters of historical fact should be considered forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements regarding the completion of this offering, the Company’s expected use of proceeds, if any, from this offering, and the sufficiency of the proceeds from this offering and the Company’s cash and cash equivalents to fund operations as well as statements that include the words “expect,” “will,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “project,” “forecast,” “estimate,” “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “eligible” and similar statements of a future or forward-looking nature. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations. These statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, risks and uncertainties associated with the completion of the offering on the anticipated terms or at all, market conditions, satisfaction of customary closing conditions related to the offering; risks related to the Company’s product candidate development and operations; and the other important factors discussed under the caption “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as such factors may be updated from time to time in the Company’s other filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. These and other important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this Current Report. Any such forward-looking statements represent management’s estimates as of the date of this Current Report. While the Company may elect to update such forward-looking statements at some point in the future, unless required by law, it disclaims any obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause its views to change. Thus, one should not assume that the Company’s silence over time means that actual events are bearing out as expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report.
