KIDZ AI Inc. Announces 1-for-15 Reverse Stock Split

What Happened
KIDZ AI Inc. announced a 1-for-15 reverse stock split of its Class A and Class B common stock. The Board approved the split on July 21, 2026, following shareholder authorization at the June 10, 2026 annual meeting that allowed a reverse split in a range from 1-for-2 to 1-for-50. The Reverse Split becomes effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on August 13, 2026; Class B shares will trade on a split-adjusted basis on Nasdaq at the opening of trading that day. The trading symbol will remain “KIDZ.” A press release announcing the action was attached to the 8-K.

Key Details

• Reverse split ratio: 1-for-15 for both Class A and Class B common stock.
• Effective date/time: 12:01 a.m. ET on August 13, 2026; split-adjusted trading begins at Nasdaq open on August 13.
• CUSIP change for Class B: from 182744300 to 182744409; ticker remains KIDZ.
• No fractional shares issued — fractional interests will be rounded up to the nearest whole share (rounding for beneficial holders applied at the DTC participant level). Outstanding warrants, convertible securities and equity awards will be adjusted proportionally.
• The number of authorized shares and the $0.0001 par value per share remain unchanged.

Why It Matters
A reverse stock split reduces the number of shares outstanding and is intended to increase the per-share trading price of KIDZ’s Class B stock, which the company says is intended to support efforts to satisfy Nasdaq’s minimum bid price and other continued listing requirements. It does not change shareholders’ proportional ownership beyond the share consolidation, nor does it alter authorized shares or par value. Investors should note the effective date (Aug 13, 2026), that trading will be on a split-adjusted basis that day, and that holders with paper certificates may contact the transfer agent (Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company) for any questions. The company also warns there is no guarantee the split will achieve a particular market price or secure Nasdaq compliance.
