Key Events
-
Authorization of Extreme Reverse Stock Split
Majority shareholders approved an amendment to authorize one or more reverse stock splits with an aggregate ratio not exceeding 1-for-2,000 within 18 months. This follows a 1-for-200 reverse split in April 2026.

Nasdaq Compliance Critical
The primary purpose is to increase the per-share price to meet Nasdaq's $1.00 minimum bid requirement, highlighting the company's struggle to maintain its listing.
-
Significant Dilution Potential
The split will reduce outstanding shares but not authorized shares, creating a large pool of unissued stock available for future dilutive offerings, adding to existing ATM programs.

Ongoing Financial Distress
This action comes after a recent 10-Q filing that reported an 80.7% revenue drop, ongoing losses, and a "going concern" warning, underscoring the company's precarious financial state.
Analysis
Cheetah Net Supply Chain Service Inc. is seeking to implement another highly aggressive reverse stock split, with an aggregate ratio of up to 1-for-2,000, within the next 18 months. This follows a 1-for-200 reverse split executed just two months ago. The primary goal is to regain compliance with Nasdaq's $1.00 minimum bid price requirement, indicating severe and ongoing challenges in maintaining its stock price. The authorization also significantly increases the number of authorized but unissued shares, creating substantial headroom for future dilutive capital raises. This move, coupled with a recent "going concern" warning, highlights the company's precarious financial position and its desperate efforts to remain publicly listed. While the CEO recently invested $400,000, this drastic measure underscores the fundamental issues facing the company.
