Item 5.07 Submission of
Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On October 31, 2025, Kaival
Brands Innovations Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), held its virtual 2025 Annual Stockholders Meeting
(the “Meeting”).
As of the close of business
on October 3, 2025, the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the Meeting, there were 11,593,402 shares
of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, issued and outstanding, with each share entitled to one vote on each
proposal at the Meeting. At the Meeting, the combined holders of 7,576,844 shares of the voting stock entitled to notice of and to vote
at the Meeting were represented in person or by proxy, representing approximately 65.35% of the outstanding voting shares, and thereby
a quorum pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law and the bylaws of the Company was present for the transaction of business at
the Meeting.

Each director nominee was
elected to serve as a director until the Company’s 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, or until such person’s successor is
duly elected and qualified, or until such person’s earlier resignation, death or removal. Due to the fact that directors are elected
by a plurality of the votes cast, votes could only be cast in favor of or withheld from the nominees and thus votes against were not applicable.
