MICROVISION, INC. 8-K

What Happened

• On June 1, 2026 MicroVision, Inc. announced via press release that it intends to seek shareholder approval to amend its certificate of incorporation to give the Board the right to effect a reverse stock split of its common stock.
• The proposed amendment would allow a reverse split at a ratio of not less than 1-for-5 and not more than 1-for-15, with the exact ratio to be determined later by the Board. MicroVision set May 28, 2026 as the record date for shareholders entitled to vote at the 2026 Annual Meeting.
• The company said it will file a preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A with the SEC and later a definitive proxy; the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the 8-K.

Key Details

• Filing date: June 1, 2026 (Form 8‑K, Item 8.01).
• Reverse split ratio range: between 1-for-5 and 1-for-15; final ratio to be chosen by the Board.
• Shareholder vote: amendment to the certificate of incorporation will be submitted for approval at the 2026 Annual Meeting (record date May 28, 2026).
• MicroVision retained Saratoga Proxy Consulting LLC to assist in the proxy solicitation at an estimated cost of $10,000 plus expenses.

Why It Matters

• A reverse stock split, if approved and implemented, would reduce the number of outstanding shares and proportionally increase the per‑share price (each shareholder’s percentage ownership and total value would remain the same, absent other market effects).
• Shareholder approval is required; investors should review the preliminary and definitive proxy materials when filed to understand the final proposed ratio, timing, and any other related corporate changes.
• The company’s proxy filing and the attached press release contain the full details and names of company participants in the solicitation; shareholders can obtain these documents on the SEC website or MicroVision’s investor relations site.
