Resale Registration by Institutional Investor
Leviston Resources LLC has registered 3,385,000 common shares for resale. These shares are derived from the conversion of Series B 5% Convertible Preferred Stock and the exercise of warrants, initially issued under a Securities Purchase Agreement dated March 20, 2026.

Significant Potential Dilution
The 3,385,000 shares represent approximately 4.27% of the company's currently outstanding common stock (79,289,016 shares as of March 31, 2026). This adds to the potential dilution from a prior S-3 registration for 12.5 million shares by the Executive Chairman.
-
No Proceeds to Company
ATLANTIC INTERNATIONAL CORP. will not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares by the Selling Stockholder, as this is a secondary offering.
-
Follows Recent Capital Raise
This registration directly follows the company's announcement on March 26, 2026, of successfully raising $5.6 million through the sale of the underlying convertible preferred stock and warrants.
Analysis
This prospectus supplement registers 3.385 million common shares for resale by an institutional investor, Leviston Resources LLC. These shares are issuable upon conversion of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and exercise of warrants, which were part of a $5.6 million capital raise announced on March 26, 2026. The company will not receive any proceeds from these sales. This registration creates a significant overhang on the stock, as the institutional investor now has the ability to sell a substantial block of shares, potentially increasing market supply and putting downward pressure on the stock price. This follows the company's recent S-3 registration for 12.5 million shares by its Executive Chairman, indicating a pattern of significant potential dilution.
