Kartoon Studios, Inc. adopted a limited duration stockholder rights plan and declared a dividend of one right for each share of common stock to holders of record on July 13, 2026. The plan is intended to protect shareholders if an investor builds a large, undisclosed stake.
Each right lets the holder buy one one-thousandth of a share of Series D Junior Participating Preferred Stock at $3.75 per right. If any non‑exempt holder acquires beneficial ownership of at least 10% of the common stock, other holders can purchase stock with a market value equal to twice the purchase price, significantly diluting the acquiring party.
The plan also includes “flip‑over” protection if Kartoon enters certain major mergers or asset sales and allows the Board to redeem all rights for $0.001 per right or exchange them for common stock. The rights expire at 5:00 p.m. New York time on July 29, 2027 unless earlier redeemed or exchanged.
