Planet Green (NYSE: PLAG) lifts authorized stock to 1.6B shares, adds 100M preferred

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Planet Green Holdings Corp. reported that on September 9, 2025 it amended its Articles of Incorporation in Nevada to significantly expand its authorized capital stock. The amendment increases the total number of shares the company may issue to 1,600,000,000, consisting of 1,500,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001 per share.

The preferred stock may be issued from time to time with specific rights, preferences and priorities to be designated by the Board of Directors, giving the board broad flexibility to create new series of preferred shares as needed in the future.

Positive

• None.

Negative

• Substantial increase in authorized shares creates dilution overhang: Raising total authorized capital to 1,600,000,000 shares, including 1,500,000,000 common shares, gives the company broad capacity to issue additional equity in the future, which could materially dilute existing shareholders if large issuances occur.

Insights

Capital structure and governance analyst

Planet Green expanded its authorized share capital to 1.6B, adding flexibility but increasing potential dilution and control tools.

The company has increased its authorized capital to 1,600,000,000 shares, broken into 1,500,000,000 common and 100,000,000 preferred shares, each with a par value of $0.001. This change affects what the company can issue in the future but does not, by itself, issue new shares or raise capital.

The board is empowered to set the rights, preferences and priorities of any preferred stock series. This kind of "blank check" preferred stock can be used for financing, strategic deals, or defensive measures, depending on future decisions. The actual impact on existing shareholders will depend on if, when, and how the company chooses to issue any portion of this newly authorized stock in later transactions disclosed in subsequent filings.

FAQ

What corporate change did PLAG disclose in this 8-K filing?

Planet Green Holdings Corp. disclosed that it filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation in Nevada on September 9, 2025 to increase the total number of shares it is authorized to issue and to define the structure of common and preferred stock.

How many shares is Planet Green (PLAG) now authorized to issue?

After the amendment, Planet Green Holdings Corp. is authorized to issue a total of 1,600,000,000 shares, consisting of 1,500,000,000 common shares and 100,000,000 preferred shares, each with a par value of $0.001 per share.

What did PLAG change regarding its preferred stock?

The amendment authorizes 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, which may be issued from time to time with such rights, preferences and priorities as the Board of Directors designates, giving the board flexibility to create different preferred series.

Does the increase in authorized shares mean PLAG issued new stock immediately?

The amendment only increases the number of shares Planet Green Holdings Corp. is authorized to issue. It does not itself state that new shares were issued; it sets the capacity for possible future issuances.

Why is the increase in authorized shares important for PLAG investors?

A higher authorized share count gives Planet Green Holdings Corp. more flexibility to raise capital, do acquisitions or create new preferred stock series, but it also increases the potential for future equity issuances that could dilute existing shareholders if used extensively.

What is the par value of PLAG’s common and preferred stock after the amendment?

Both the common and preferred stock of Planet Green Holdings Corp. have a par value of $0.001 per share under the amended Articles of Incorporation.
