Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
On October 4, 2022, we, Air Industries Group, announced a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of our authorized, issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a ratio of 1-for-10. We anticipate that the Reverse Stock Split will be effective at 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on October 18, 2022 and that our common stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis when the market opens on October 18, 2022. A copy of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
Reverse Split
On September 8, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a Reverse Stock Split of our authorized, issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a ratio of one (1) share of common stock for every ten (10) shares of common stock. Pursuant to the laws of the State of Nevada, the state in which Air Industries Group is incorporated, our Board of Directors has the authority to effect a reverse stock split without shareholder approval if the number of authorized shares of common stock and the number of outstanding shares of common stock are proportionally reduced. In approving the reverse stock split the Board also determined that the number of shares of common stock we are authorized to issue and the number of outstanding shares of common stock would be proportionally reduced. There will be no change in the number of shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share we are authorized to issue. We will file a certificate of change to our articles of incorporation, as amended, with the Secretary of State of Nevada to effect the Reverse Stock Split.
Treatment of Fractional Shares
As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, each ten (10) pre-split shares of common stock outstanding will automatically combine into one (1) new share of common stock without any action on the part of the holders, and the number of outstanding shares common stock will be reduced from 32,324,670 shares to 3,232,467 shares (subject to rounding of fractional shares).
No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares because they hold a number of pre-reverse stock split shares of the Company’s common stock not evenly divisible by 10, will, in lieu of a fractional share, be entitled to have the number of shares rounded up to the nearest whole share. As a result, no fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split and no cash or other consideration will be paid in connection with any fractional shares that would otherwise have resulted from the Reverse Stock Split.
Trading Symbol; New CUSIP
After the Reverse Stock Split, the trading symbol for the Company’s common stock will continue to be “AIRI.” The new CUSIP number for the Company’s common stock following the Reverse Stock Split is 00912N 403.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On October 4, 2022, the Company issued a press release announcing the Reverse Stock Split. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
