Authorized Shares Raised to 27 Billion
A Certificate of Amendment would add 15,000,000,000 authorized common shares, taking the total from 12,000,000,000 to 27,000,000,000, while preferred stock stays unchanged at 20,000,000 shares.
-
Approved by CEO's Sole Written Consent
Steven Reinharz, CEO and sole director, approved the increase as holder of all 3,350,000 Series E Preferred shares, which carry approximately 66.67% of total voting power; no other stockholder vote is required.
-
Massive Headroom Versus 914M Outstanding
With 914,347,362 common shares outstanding on the October 20, 2026 record date, the new authorization leaves roughly 26.1 billion unissued shares available for future issuance.
-
Series F Conversion Overhang
Series F Preferred is convertible into 3.45 times the common shares then outstanding, about 3,154,498,399 shares today, and Reinharz holds roughly 97.49% of that series.
Analysis · AITX · Technology
AITX is lifting its authorized common stock ceiling from 12 billion to 27 billion shares, and the approval came not from a stockholder vote but from CEO and sole director Steven Reinharz through his Series E Preferred voting control. No shares are being issued today, yet the headroom is enormous relative to the 914,347,362 shares outstanding, and the stated purposes are operations funding, debt conversion and future financings. The timing matters: three days earlier, a 10-Q disclosed a $6.84M quarterly loss, $58.9M of current liabilities against $220k of cash and an explicit going-concern warning. Read together, this is the company clearing the runway for heavy share issuance to stay funded. Existing holders should expect continued dilution; the only near-term gate is the 20-day mailing delay before the amendment can be filed.
