Shareholders have approved a significant increase in authorized common stock, raising the limit from 7.5 million to 10 million shares. This provides Landmark Bancorp with the flexibility to issue an additional 2.5 million shares. If all newly authorized shares were issued, existing shareholders would face potential dilution of approximately 64%. This authorization is particularly notable given the company's recent Q1 2026 report, which highlighted significant deposit outflows, a rise in past-due loans, and fraud losses, suggesting a potential need for future capital raises.
