EXPLANATORY NOTE

On October 6, 2026, Repligen Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Repligen”), completed its previously announced acquisition of BioLife Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“BioLife”), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 21, 2026 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Repligen, Bravo Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Repligen (“Merger Sub 1”), Bravo Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Repligen (“Merger Sub 2”), and BioLife.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on October 6, 2026, Merger Sub 1 merged with and into BioLife (the “First Merger”), with BioLife surviving the First Merger as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Repligen, and immediately following the First Merger, BioLife merged with and into Merger Sub 2 (the “Second Merger,” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with Merger Sub 2 surviving the Second Merger as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Repligen.

The Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Mergers, were previously described in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 of Repligen (Registration No. 333-298546), in the form in which it was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 4, 2026 and the definitive proxy statement of BioLife, dated as of and filed with the SEC on September 4, 2026 (as supplemented, the “Proxy Statement”).

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

The information set forth in the “Explanatory Note” of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01.

At the effective time of the First Merger (the “First Merger Effective Time”), each share of BioLife’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“BioLife Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time (other than (i) any shares that were held by BioLife in treasury or owned by Repligen, Merger Sub 1 or Merger Sub 2 and (ii) shares with respect to which appraisal rights were properly exercised and perfected, and were not withdrawn, in accordance with Delaware law) converted automatically into the right to receive (A) 0.1442 validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Repligen common stock (such shares of Repligen common stock, the “Stock Consideration”) and (B) $11.25 in cash, without interest (the “Cash Consideration” and together with the Stock Consideration, the “Merger Consideration”). No fractional shares of Repligen common stock were issued in the Mergers, and stockholders of BioLife received cash in lieu of any fractional shares as part of the Merger Consideration, as specified in the Merger Agreement.

Immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time:

•

options to acquire shares of BioLife Common Stock (“BioLife Options”) outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, became fully vested and were cancelled in exchange for a payment to the holder thereof in shares of BioLife Common Stock equal to (i) the number of shares of BioLife Common Stock subject to such BioLife Options minus (ii) a number of any shares of BioLife Common Stock equal in value to the aggregate exercise price thereof (net of any shares of BioLife Common Stock equal in value to any applicable tax to be deducted or withheld in respect thereof);

•

awards of restricted stock units of BioLife that were subject solely to time-based vesting (“BioLife RSUs”) outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time were accelerated, vesting in full, and were settled and paid to the holder thereof in shares of BioLife Common Stock (net of any shares of BioLife Common Stock equal in value to any applicable tax to be deducted or withheld in respect thereof);

•

awards of restricted stock units of BioLife that were subject to performance-based vesting (“BioLife PSUs”) outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time were accelerated, vesting in full, and were settled and paid to the holder thereof in shares of BioLife Common Stock (assuming the greater of target or actual (measured as of the latest practicable date prior to the First Merger Effective Time) achievement of the applicable performance goals and net of any shares of BioLife Common Stock equal in value to any applicable tax to be deducted or withheld in respect thereof); and

•

awards of outstanding unvested restricted stock of BioLife (“BioLife RSAs”) were accelerated, vesting in full, and were released to the holder thereof in shares of BioLife Common Stock (net of any shares of BioLife Common Stock equal in value to any applicable tax to be deducted or withheld in respect thereof).

All shares of BioLife Common Stock issuable pursuant to the BioLife Options, BioLife RSUs, BioLife PSUs and BioLife RSAs as provided above converted automatically into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as of the First Merger Effective Time.

The foregoing summary does not purport to be a complete description and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Merger Agreement has been attached as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about Repligen or BioLife or to modify or supplement any factual disclosures about Repligen or BioLife in their public reports filed with the SEC. The Merger Agreement includes representations, warranties and covenants of Repligen and BioLife made solely for the purposes of the Merger Agreement, which may be subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by Repligen and BioLife in connection with the negotiated terms of the Merger Agreement. Moreover, some of those representations and warranties may not be accurate or complete as of any specified date, and may be subject to certain disclosures between the parties and a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to Repligen’s or BioLife’s SEC filings. In addition, the representations and warranties were made for purposes of allocating risk among the parties to the Merger Agreement and should not be relied upon as establishing factual matters.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

As a result of the Mergers, BioLife has ceased to exist as a separate legal entity and therefore no longer fulfills the listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”). In connection with the consummation of the Mergers, on October 5, 2026, BioLife notified Nasdaq that it anticipates that the Mergers will close prior to the opening of trading on October 6, 2026, and requested that Nasdaq (i) halt the trading of BioLife Common Stock following closing of the after-market trading session at or about 8:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on October 5, 2026, (ii) subject to BioLife’s confirmation of closing of the Mergers on October 6, 2026, suspend trading of BioLife Common Stock as of the close of business on October 6, 2026, and (iii) subject to BioLife’s confirmation of closing of the Mergers on October 6, 2026, file with the SEC a Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), on Form 25 to effect the delisting of BioLife Common Stock from Nasdaq and to deregister BioLife Common Stock under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. As a result, BioLife Common Stock will not continue to be listed on Nasdaq. On October 6, 2026, BioLife notified Nasdaq that the Mergers had closed.

On October 6, 2026, Repligen issued a press release announcing the closing of the transactions described in Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

In addition, BioLife intends to file with the SEC a Certification and Notice of Termination of Registration on Form 15 with respect to BioLife Common Stock requesting the deregistration of BioLife Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and the corresponding immediate suspension of BioLife’s reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable, and to cease filing any further periodic reports with respect to BioLife since it no longer exists as a public company.

The information contained in Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.

(a) Financial Statements of Business Acquired.

If required, Repligen intends to file financial statements pursuant to Item 9.01(a) in an amendment to this Current Report on Form 8-K no later than 71 calendar days after the date on which this Current Report on Form 8-K was required to be filed.

REPLIGEN COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF BIOLIFE SOLUTIONS

WALTHAM, MA - October 6, 2026 – Repligen Corporation (NASDAQ: RGEN, “Repligen”, or the “Company”), a

life sciences company focused on bioprocessing technology leadership, today announced it has completed the previously announced acquisition of BioLife Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: BLFS, “BioLife”), a leading developer and supplier of cell

processing tools and services for the cell and gene therapy market.

“We are excited to welcome BioLife team members to Repligen,” said

Olivier Loeillot, President and Chief Executive Officer of Repligen. “BioLife’s highly-differentiated portfolio of products expands our presence in the rapidly growing cell therapy market, adding a deeply embedded, high-margin

consumables business with attractive recurring revenue. Together, we are better positioned to support customers across critical stages of the cell therapy workflow and help advance the development and commercialization of next-generation therapies.

Over the past several months, our teams have worked closely together to develop a thoughtful integration plan, and we are even more excited about the strategic rationale of bringing our organizations together and the value we will create for

patients, customers, and shareholders.”

BioLife’s products are deeply embedded in the cell therapy workflow and highly complementary to

Repligen’s existing offering in this market. BioLife’s differentiated biopreservation media portfolio, led by CryoStor®, supports 18 commercially approved therapies and the

majority of U.S. commercially sponsored cell-based therapy trials. As a combined commercial team, BioLife will benefit from Repligen’s broader global reach, including Asia Pacific, while Repligen will benefit from BioLife’s trusted

customer relationships.

In connection with the transaction, BioLife stockholders received $11.25 per share in cash and 0.1442 shares of Repligen common

stock, with cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Repligen common stock.

Repligen intends to provide additional detail regarding the

transaction’s expected impact on Repligen’s 2026 financial outlook in the upcoming third quarter 2026 earnings call.
