Key Details

• Quorum/attendance: 48,690,915 shares present (≈61.29% of 79,443,800 outstanding as of July 14, 2026).
• Authorized share capital increase approved: from US$4,000,000 (1,000,000,000 ordinary shares, $0.004 par) to US$80,000,000 (20,000,000,000 ordinary shares, $0.004 par) — creation of 19,000,000,000 additional ordinary shares. Vote: 46,892,493 for / 1,796,709 against.

• Auditor ratification vote: 48,678,953 for / 10,130 against.

Why It Matters

• The authorized share increase gives the company flexibility to issue many more shares for fundraising, acquisitions, or equity plans; that can enable growth but may increase potential shareholder dilution if shares are issued.
• The Board’s ability to execute reverse stock splits provides a tool to adjust the share count and share price (useful for listing standards or marketability) without needing further shareholder approval within the stated limits.
• Re-election and addition of directors and ratification of the auditor confirm the company’s current governance team and auditing relationship for FY2026, which are relevant to oversight and financial reporting continuity.
