Reverse Stock Split
On February 11, 2026, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of EpicQuest Education Group International Limited (the “Company”) approved a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s ordinary shares (the “Ordinary Shares”) at a ratio of 1-for-16. Stockholder approval of the Reverse Stock Split was not required pursuant to the laws of the British Virgin Islands.
The Reverse Stock Split is effective on Tuesday, February 17, 2026 (the “Effective Date”) and our Ordinary Shares began trading on a split-adjusted basis when the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC opened for trading on that same day. The Ordinary Shares will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the trading symbol “EEIQ” but will trade under the following new CUSIP number: G3104J142.
As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 16 Ordinary Shares held as of the Effective Date were automatically combined into one Ordinary Share. The number of outstanding Ordinary Shares was reduced from approximately 23,671,667 Ordinary Shares to approximately 1,479,479 Ordinary Shares. There are currently no Preferred Shares outstanding.
No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split; instead, the Company will pay cash in lieu of fractional shares in an amount equal to the fair value of such fractional share, with such fair value being the closing price of the Ordinary Shares on a post-Reverse Stock Split basis on the Nasdaq Capital Market on the first trading date of the Ordinary Shares following the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split.
The Reverse Stock Split affects all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder’s percentage interest in the Company’s equity, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split results in some stockholders owning a fractional share as described above.
In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, and following Board approval on February 11, 2026, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association with the Registry of Corporate Affairs in the British Virgin Islands on February 16, 2026, to reduce the authorized number of Ordinary Shares from 970,000,000 shares to 60,625,000 shares and to reduce the authorized number of Preferred Shares from 10,000,000 shares to 625,000 shares, a reduction at the same ratio as the Reverse Stock Split, and to increase the par value per Ordinary Share and Preferred Share from US$0.0016 to US$0.0256 per share.
This Report on Form 6-K shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the registration statements of the Company on Forms S-8 (Registration Numbers 333-258658 and 333-273948) and Forms F-3 (Registration Numbers: 333-277859; 333-291201 and 333-288399), to the extent not superseded by documents or reports subsequently filed or furnished by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
