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

 

As previously disclosed on Form 8-K on January 30, 2025, Cyngn Inc. (the “Company”) held a special stockholder meeting on January 30, 2025, at which stockholders voted to authorize the Company’s Board of Directors to effect a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of common stock within one (1) year of January 30, 2025, at a specific ratio within a range of one-for-five (1-for-5) to a maximum of a one-for-one hundred fifty (1-for-150).

 

On January 30, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors determined to effect the reverse stock split of the common stock at a 1-for-150 ratio (the “Reverse Split”) and approved the filing of a Certificate of Amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, of the Company to effect the Reverse Split.

 

On February 7, 2025, the Certificate of Amendment to effect the Reverse Split was filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware.

 

As of February 12, 2025, the Company has 262,773,516 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, which includes shares of common stock that have been issued upon exercise of those certain Series B Warrants issued by the Company pursuant to that certain securities purchase agreement dated December 20, 2025. The implementation of the Reverse Split of its outstanding shares of common stock will take effect in the public markets at the opening of trading on Tuesday, February 18, 2025. Upon effectuation of the Reverse Split, the Company anticipates that it will have 1,751,824 shares of common stock outstanding, not accounting for fractional shares that result from the Reverse Split that are rounded up. 

 

A copy of the Certificate of Amendment is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
