Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

The information contained in Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.03 Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

As previously disclosed, at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Gulf Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) held on September 9, 2025, the stockholders of the Company approved a proposal to authorize the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) to amend the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to effect a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0005 (“Common Stock”) at a reverse split ratio of between 1-for-2 and 1-for-10 as determined by the Board, whereby every 1 to 10 shares of the authorized, issued and outstanding Common Stock will be combined into one share of authorized, issued and outstanding Common Stock.

On October 10, 2025, pursuant to the authority granted by the Company’s stockholders, the Board effectuated and approved a one-for-ten (1:10) reverse stock split ratio (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Common Stock. The Reverse Stock Split will become effective at 12:01 am Eastern Time on October 27, 2025 (the “Effective Time”). When the Reverse Stock Split becomes effective, every ten (10) shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be reclassified into one (1) share of Common Stock, without any change in the par value per share. The Reverse Stock Split will reduce the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common stock from approximately 13.3 million to approximately 1.3 million. The Reverse Stock Split will not change the total number of authorized shares of Common Stock.

No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive a fractional share in connection with the Reverse Stock Split will receive one full share of the post-reverse stock split Common Stock in lieu of such fractional share.

Commencing on October 27, 2025, trading of the Company’s Common Stock will continue on The Nasdaq Capital Market on a Reverse Stock Split-adjusted basis. The new CUSIP number for the Company’s Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split will be 40251W507.

The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
