Rhea-AI Filing Summary

C3is Inc. effected a one-for-5 reverse stock split of its common stock effective November 8, 2026, combining each five shares issued and outstanding immediately before the effective time into one share. Outstanding common shares fell from approximately 4.2 million to approximately 0.84 million. No fractional shares were issued; holders otherwise entitled to fractions received cash in lieu, based on the closing price per share on the trading day immediately before the effective date, adjusted for the split.

The company said outstanding warrants and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will be proportionately adjusted to increase exercise or conversion prices and reduce the number of shares issuable. Certain warrant exercise prices and the preferred stock conversion price will also be adjusted to the lowest daily volume weighted average price during the stated five-trading-day periods before and after the split, if lower than the then-current exercise price. The Class B-1 and C-1 warrants also have an alternative zero cash exercise exchange option.

Filing Explained

The completed split reduced outstanding common shares, but the amendment left the authorized common-share count unchanged; the split therefore did not reduce the company’s authorized capacity to issue common stock.

reverse stock split technical

"effected a one-for-5 reverse stock split"

A reverse stock split reduces a company's number of outstanding shares while raising the price per share proportionally, so the total value of each investor's holding is unchanged; a 1-for-10 split turns 100 shares worth $1 each into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to regain compliance with an exchange's minimum price rule or to attract investors who avoid very low-priced stocks.

volume weighted average price financial

"lowest daily volume weighted average price"

The volume weighted average price (VWAP) is a way to measure the average price of a security, such as a stock, over a specific period, taking into account how many units were traded at each price. It’s similar to calculating the average cost of items bought when some are more frequently purchased than others. Investors use VWAP to assess whether a security is being bought or sold at a fair price during trading.

zero cash exercise exchange option financial

"an alternative zero cash exercise exchange option"

treasury stock technical

"issued and outstanding or held by the Corporation as treasury stock"

Treasury stock is shares that a company has bought back from the public and kept in its own control rather than retiring them. Think of it like a company holding its own tickets in a drawer: those shares no longer vote or receive dividends while held, but the company can reissue or retire them later; this reduces the number of shares available to outside investors and can boost per‑share earnings and influence ownership and stock price.

Reverse Stock Split

On November 6, 2026, C3is Inc. (the “Company”) filed an amendment to its Restated Articles of Incorporation, to effectuate a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value of $0.01 per share. A copy of the amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1.

Effective as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on November 8, 2026, the Company effected a one-for-5 reverse stock split of its shares of common stock, and the Company’s common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on The Nasdaq Capital Market as of the opening of trading on November 9, 2026. The reverse stock split reduced the number of outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock from approximately 4.2 million shares to approximately 0.84 million shares and affected all outstanding shares of common stock. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse split. Stockholders who would otherwise hold a fractional share of the Company’s common stock received a cash payment in lieu of such fractional share. The Company’s outstanding warrants and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will be proportionately adjusted to increase the exercise price and reduce the number of shares issuable upon exercise to reflect the reverse stock split.

The exercise price of the Class B-1, B-2, C-1 and C-2 Warrants, and accordingly the conversion price of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, will be further adjusted to the lowest daily volume weighted average price during the period commencing five consecutive trading days immediately preceding and the five consecutive trading days following the effective time of the reverse split (if lower than the then current exercise price), with the Class B-1 and C-1 warrants also being exercisable pursuant to an alternative zero cash exercise exchange option, and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise will be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate exercise price of such warrants as of their original issuance date will remain unchanged.

The par value and other terms of the Company’s shares of common stock were not affected by the reverse stock split. The Company’s post-reverse split common shares have a new CUSIP number, Y18284508, and continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “CISS”.

A copy of the new form of stock certificate for the Company’s post-reverse stock split shares of common stock is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2.
