Item 5.03 Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
Effective May 28, 2013, WPCS International Incorporated (the “Company”) amended its Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, pursuant to which the Company effected a one-for-seven reverse split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”) and reduced the number of authorized shares of common stock by the same ratio, from 100 million to 14,285,715, by filing a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of Nevada to effectuate such amendment. The Certificate of Amendment, effective May 28, 2013, is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.01 and is incorporated by reference.
As previously reported, the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, at the annual shareholder meeting held on February 28, 2013, granted discretionary authority to the Company’s board of directors to effectuate a reverse stock at a range from 1-for-2 up to 1-for-10. On May 6, 2013, the Company’s board of directors authorized the Reverse Stock Split pursuant to a unanimous consent in lieu of a meeting.
Upon effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, the Company had 993,538 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
