Vicarious Surgical Inc. 8-K

What Happened

• Vicarious Surgical Inc. filed an 8-K on April 8, 2026 reporting that at a Special Meeting of stockholders held the same day, shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to permit a reverse stock split of all outstanding Class A and Class B common stock.
• The approved authorization allows a reverse split at a ratio within the range of 1-for-2 to 1-for-30, with the exact ratio to be determined later by the Board of Directors. The filing does not state which ratio the Board has selected or when any split would become effective.
• Meeting mechanics: holders of Class A shares had one vote per share and Class B holders had 20 votes per share (record date March 16, 2026). A quorum was present: 1,885,434 shares represented (about 60.68% of outstanding voting power).

Key Details

• Date filed / meeting date: April 8, 2026.
• Vote outcome: For — 11,810,046; Against — 49,675; Abstentions — 3,430.
• Authorized split range: 1-for-2 to 1-for-30; final ratio to be set by the Board.
• Record date for voting: March 16, 2026; quorum present (≈60.68% of voting power).

Why It Matters

• A reverse stock split reduces the number of outstanding shares and increases the per-share price proportionally; this change can affect trading liquidity, per-share metrics, and share price reporting, although the filing does not state any specific intended benefit or timing.
• For investors, the key near-term items to watch are the Board’s chosen split ratio, the effective date (if any), and the company’s disclosure on the mechanics (fractional-share treatment, record/transaction date). The 8-K shows the amendment is approved by shareholders but not yet implemented.
