NOTICE OF ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT OF STOCKHOLDER HOLDING

A MAJORITY OF THE VOTING POWER

WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY.

To the Holders of Common Stock of Blue Star Foods Corp.:

This Information Statement is being furnished to the stockholders of Blue Star Foods Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with action taken by written consent of the holder of a majority of the outstanding voting power of the Company as of January 30, 2026 (the “Record Date”).

On January 28, 2026, the Board of Directors approved and declared advisable an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock at a ratio of not less than one-for-one hundred (1:100) and not greater than one-for-ten thousand (1:10,000), with the exact ratio to be determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion (the “Reverse Stock Split”).

On January 28, 2026, the holder of approximately 51.17% of the outstanding voting power approved the Reverse Stock Split by written consent pursuant to Section 228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

The Reverse Stock Split will not become effective until at least twenty (20) calendar days after the mailing of this Definitive Information Statement to stockholders.

INFORMATION STATEMENT

INFORMATION STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 14(c) OF THE

SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND

YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY.

This Information Statement is being mailed on or about March 17, 2026 to stockholders of record as of the Record Date.

No meeting of stockholders will be held. No proxies are being solicited. The corporate action described herein has already been approved by the holder of a majority of the outstanding voting power of the Company.

PURPOSE OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

The Board of Directors believes that the Reverse Stock Split is advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

The Board believes that approving a range of exchange ratios, rather than a fixed ratio, provides flexibility to implement the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio within the approved range that the Board determines to be appropriate based on then-existing conditions.

The Company believes that the Reverse Stock Split may make its Common Stock more attractive to a broader range of investors, as the current market price of the Common Stock may discourage certain institutional investors, professional investors, and other members of the investing public from purchasing the Common Stock. Brokerage commissions on low-priced stocks may represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher-priced securities. The Company believes that increasing the per-share price through a Reverse Stock Split may enhance investor perception and potentially improve trading liquidity.

Reducing the number of outstanding shares is intended, absent other factors, to increase the per share market price of the Common Stock. However, there can be no assurance that the Reverse Stock Split will achieve the intended benefits described herein or that any increase in market price will be sustained.

The total market capitalization of the Company after the Reverse Stock Split may be lower than before the Reverse Stock Split.

FACTORS TO BE CONSIDERED BY THE BOARD

In determining whether to implement the Reverse Stock Split and in selecting a ratio within the approved range of 1-for-100 to 1-for-10,000, the Board expects to consider, among other things:

The Board reserves the right to abandon the Reverse Stock Split at any time prior to filing the Certificate of Amendment if it determines that the Reverse Stock Split is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

FRACTIONAL SHARES

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders otherwise entitled to receive fractional shares will receive a number of shares rounded up to the nearest whole share. No cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares.

OPTIONS, WARRANTS AND CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES

Upon effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split:

ACCOUNTING MATTERS

The par value of the Common Stock will remain unchanged.

Stated capital will be reduced proportionately based on the selected exchange ratio, and additional paid-in capital will be credited accordingly.

Net income or loss per share and net book value per share will increase due to the reduced number of outstanding shares.

No other material accounting consequences are anticipated.

OTHER EFFECTS ON OUTSTANDING SHARES

The rights and preferences of the Common Stock will not change as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.

The Reverse Stock Split may result in some stockholders owning odd-lots. Brokerage commissions and transaction costs for odd-lots are generally higher than for round-lot trades.

UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

The following is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split to U.S. stockholders.

No gain or loss should be recognized upon the exchange (or deemed exchange) of shares pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split.

The aggregate tax basis and holding period of the shares received should equal the aggregate tax basis and holding period of the shares exchanged.

Stockholders should consult their own tax advisors regarding their specific circumstances.

PROCEDURE FOR EFFECTING THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

As soon as practicable after the effective time, stockholders will be notified that the Reverse Stock Split has been effected.

Certificates representing shares prior to the Reverse Stock Split will thereafter represent the adjusted number of shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split.

If certificates are exchanged, VStock Transfer LLC is expected to act as exchange agent.

Stockholders should not submit certificates until instructed to do so.

VOTE REQUIRED

Approval of the Reverse Stock Split required the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding voting power of the Company.

The Reverse Stock Split was approved on January 28, 2026 by the holder of approximately 51.17% of the outstanding voting power through written consent pursuant to Section 228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

No further stockholder approval is required.

NO APPRAISAL RIGHTS

Stockholders are not entitled to appraisal or dissenters’ rights under Delaware law.
