• Change of Control

  A new investor group, Hawkeye HoldCo LLC, MCIMAC, LLC, and Martin Sumichrast, has gained beneficial ownership of 69.1% of Hawkeye Systems' common stock upon conversion of a $2.77 million convertible promissory note.

• Board and Management Appointments

  The investor group will appoint four out of five board members, and new President David Wachsman and Chief Financial Officer Quinton Byron Hamlet have been appointed, effectively transferring control of the company's leadership.

• Significant Dilution

  The conversion of the $2.77 million note, with an initial conversion price of $0.12 per share, could result in over 200% dilution for existing shareholders, based on the 10,306,772 shares outstanding as of April 1, 2026.

• Restructuring for Distressed Company

  This transaction is part of a comprehensive restructuring for Hawkeye Systems, which previously disclosed substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern and critical liquidity issues.

This Schedule 13D filing details a significant change of control for Hawkeye Systems, Inc., a company previously facing substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. A new investor group, led by Martin Sumichrast, has acquired a convertible note that, upon conversion, will grant them beneficial ownership of 69.1% of the company's common stock. This transaction, which follows a recent 8-K announcing the financing, includes the appointment of four out of five board members designated by the investor group, as well as new President and CFO appointments. While this restructuring provides a lifeline for the financially distressed company, it comes with extreme dilution for existing shareholders and transfers control to the new investor group. Investors should note the background of Martin Sumichrast, who was subject to an SEC final judgment in 2024.
