50x Authorized Share Increase Proposed
The board is seeking approval to raise authorized capital from 100 million shares (US$50,000) to 5.05 billion shares (US$2,525,000), creating the headroom needed to issue 142.8 million shares to EnChem America under the reverse merger.
-
Reverse Split Up to 1:200 Authorized
Shareholders will vote on a reverse stock split at a ratio of up to 1-for-200, which the board may execute at its discretion within 12 months to regain Nasdaq compliance after the delisting determination.

Shareholder Meeting Set for August 5
With a record date of June 30, Class A and Class B holders will vote separately on class consents, after which all shareholders will vote on the capital increase, reverse split, and related resolutions.
Analysis · TGHL · Technology
To complete the reverse merger with EnChem America announced on July 15, GrowHub is asking shareholders to approve a dramatic expansion of authorized shares—from 100 million to 5.05 billion—and a reverse stock split of up to 1-for-200. These steps are essential for issuing the 142.8 million shares that will give EnChem America 85% of the combined company. The 50x jump in authorized capital hands the board significant flexibility to issue shares not only for the merger but also for future financing needs. Meanwhile, the reverse split, which the board can execute at its discretion within 12 months, is designed to lift the stock price above Nasdaq's minimum bid requirement following a delisting notice. Shareholders will vote on August 5; if approved, the board gains the authority to implement the split at any point over the next year. This is the governance machinery behind a distressed reverse merger—existing holders face extreme dilution and a reverse split that could dramatically shrink their share count.
