| Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
On September 2, 2025, Universal Safety Products, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release (the “Press Release”) announcing a one-time special cash dividend to holders of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) of $1.00 per share (the “Special Dividend”). The record date for the dividend is September 18. 2025, and the payment date is September 25, 2025. A copy of the Press Release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
As provided in the Press Release, because the payment of the Special Dividend represents more than 20% of the price of the Company’s Common Stock, the NYSE American has advised the Company that its Common Stock will trade with “due bills” representing an assignment of the right to receive the Special Dividend from the record date of September 18, 2025 through the closing of trading on the NYSE American on September 25, 2025, which is the payment date and the last day of trading before the September 26, 2025 ex-dividend date (this period of time representing the “Dividend Right Period”). Stockholders who sell their Common Stock during the Dividend Right Period (September 18, 2025 through September 25, 2025) will be selling their right to the Special Dividend, and such stockholders will not be entitled to receive the Special Dividend on September 25, 2025. Due bills obligate a seller of Common Stock to deliver the Special Dividend payable on such Common Stock to the buyer (the “Dividend Right”). The Special Dividend record date of September 18, 2025 will be used as the date for establishing the due bill tracking of the Dividend Right to the holder of Common Stock. Due bill obligations are customarily settled between the brokers representing the buyers and the sellers of shares. The Company has no obligation for either the amount of the due bill or the processing of the due bill. Buyers and sellers of the Company’s Common Stock should consult their brokers before trading to be sure they understand the effect of the NYSE American’s due bill procedures.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information under this item shall not be deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. This report will not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information required to be disclosed solely to satisfy the requirements of Regulation FD.
