Insights

Capital structure and securities analyst

Splash restructures options into common and new Series D preferred, adding a new convertible class.

The company has terminated options tied to $600,000 of common stock and instead issued 113,636 common shares and 1,136 Series D preferred shares. This shifts potential dilution from options into a mix of immediate equity and a new convertible preferred instrument, while removing the prior option overhang.

The new Series D class allows conversion at 100 common shares per preferred share, with up to 50,000 Series D shares authorized. Conversion is constrained by NYSE American rules, including shareholder approval requirements, and by beneficial ownership limits described in the Certificate of Designations. These conditions mean actual conversion timing and scale will depend on regulatory compliance and holder decisions.

Series D holders vote with common shareholders on an as-converted basis, which can influence voting power as more preferred shares are issued or converted. Future company disclosures describing any additional Series D issuances or conversions will clarify how this class affects ownership and governance balance.
