Kartoon Studios, Inc. filings document an entertainment operating company organized in Nevada and traded on NYSE American under TOON.

Kartoon Studios, Inc. updated its governance structure and director protections. The board approved a new indemnification agreement giving directors and executive officers contractual rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law, in addition to existing protections in governing documents.
The company adopted extensive bylaw amendments effective July 1, 2026. Stockholders can no longer act by written consent, and only the board may call special meetings, which it may postpone, reschedule, or cancel. Stockholder list inspection rights are limited to holders meeting Nevada statutory ownership thresholds and procedural requirements.
The amendments introduce detailed advance notice rules for director nominations and other business, require compliance with Rule 14a-19, and give the chair broad authority over meeting conduct and adjournments. The board is now classified into two staggered classes, with vacancies filled solely by remaining directors. Removing a director and stockholder-initiated bylaw changes each require at least a two-thirds voting threshold. The bylaws also remove a prior provision making the Nevada Control Share Acquisition Statute inapplicable and designate a Nevada state court as the exclusive forum for key internal corporate disputes.

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.
