Item. 5.03 | Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year |
On December 9, 2022, the stockholders of NuZee, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a proposal granting the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) discretionary authority to file an amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the “Articles”), which amends Section 1 of the Articles to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 (the “Common Stock”), at any ratio from 1-for-10 to 1-for-50 at the Board’s discretion. On December 21, 2022, the Board approved a 1-for-35 reverse stock split of the Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Certificate of Amendment was filed by the Company on December 28, 2022 and became effective upon acceptance of the Company’s filing of the Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of Nevada. Accordingly, each holder of Common Stock received one share of Common Stock for every 35 shares such stockholder held immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split.
The foregoing description of the Certificate of Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
