WEYLAND TECH INC. (OTCMKTS:WEYL) Files An 8-K Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
Item 5.03   Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On February 25, 2020, Weyland Tech, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”), filed a certificate of amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, to effect a reverse stock split of our common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), at a rate of 1-for-13 (the “Reverse Stock Split”).

As previously reported, on September 26, 2019, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) had authorized the Company to effect a reverse stock split at a ratio of not less than 1-for-5 and not more than 1-for-20, the exact ratio to be determined by the Board in its sole discretion based upon the market price of our Common Stock on the date of such determination, and with such reverse stock split to be effective at such time and date, if at all, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, it being understood that the sole purpose of such reverse stock split was to attempt to obtain a listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.  As also previously reported, at a special meeting of our stockholders held on November 15, 2019, the Company’s stockholders approved a proposal to give the Board discretion to effect the reverse stock split at a ratio of not less than 1-for-5 and not more than 1-for-20.  On February 13, 2020, the Board (a) determined that, based upon the market price of our Common Stock, and with the intention to move forward with its listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, it would be appropriate for the reverse split to be at a ratio of 1-for-13, and (b) authorized the Company to file the Certificate of Amendment to implement the Reverse Stock Split, to be effective upon filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.  

On February 25, 2020, upon the filing of the Certificate of Amendment, and the resulting effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, every 13 outstanding shares of our Common Stock were, without any further action by us, or any holder thereof, combined into and automatically became 1 share of our Common Stock.  No fractional shares were issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.  In lieu thereof, fractional shares were cancelled, and stockholders received a cash payment in an amount equal to the fair market value of such fractional shares on the effective date.  All shares of Common Stock eliminated as a result of the Reverse Stock Split have been returned to our authorized and unissued capital stock, and our capital has been reduced by an amount equal to the par value of the shares of Common Stock so retired.

Prior to the filing of the Certificate of Amendment, we had an authorized capital of 250,000,000 shares of Common Stock, out of which 154,890,210 shares were issued and outstanding.  As a result of the filing of the Certificate of Amendment, and resulting effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, the 154,890,210 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding became 11,914,367 shares of Common Stock, and 142,975,843 shares of Common Stock were cancelled.  The Reverse Stock Split did not change our current authorized number of shares of Common Stock or its par value.

Except for de minimus adjustments that resulted from the treatment of fractional shares, the Reverse Stock Split did not have any dilutive effect on our stockholders since each stockholder holds the same percentage of our Common Stock outstanding immediately following the Reverse Stock Split as such stockholder held immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split.

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock that may be purchased upon exercise of outstanding warrants, options, or other securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of our Common Stock, and the exercise or conversion prices for these securities, have also be ratably adjusted in accordance with their terms.

The Certificate of Amendment is filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.01   Regulation FD Disclosure.
