Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Wearable Devices Ltd. is calling a special shareholder meeting on February 19, 2026 to vote on several financing, compensation and capital-structure actions. Shareholders are asked to approve private placements of new warrants, including Ordinary Warrants and amended existing warrants tied to a prior registered direct offering, and a separate inducement grant of New Warrants that could represent 29.1% of fully diluted share capital if exercised. The Board also seeks approval of an amended executive and director compensation policy that raises caps on CEO salary, bonuses and equity awards, plus new RSU grants for the CEO, Chief Scientific Officer/President, and non-executive directors. In addition, shareholders are asked to authorize one or more reverse share splits of up to 3:1 at the Board’s discretion to support continued Nasdaq listing. The Board unanimously recommends voting in favor of all proposals.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • Significant potential dilution: New Warrants alone could represent 29.1% of fully diluted share capital as of January 15, 2026, with additional Ordinary and Amended Warrants on top.
  • Reverse split authorization: Board seeks discretion to implement one or more reverse share splits of up to 3:1, which may signal listing pressure and could affect trading dynamics.

Insights

Large warrant grants and reverse split authorization add dilution and governance considerations.

The meeting bundles several significant items. The New Warrants tied to the inducement (up to 5,813,500 shares) would equal 29.1% of issued and outstanding share capital on a fully diluted basis as of January 15, 2026 if fully exercised, following $5.68M in gross proceeds from earlier warrant exercises at $1.71. Additional Ordinary Warrants and amended warrants from the earlier offering add further potential equity overhang.

On governance and pay, the amended compensation policy materially increases potential CEO variable pay (maximum annual bonus raised to 18 salaries and long-term equity caps expanded to 35 monthly salaries) and raises director equity limits to up to $225,000 in annual fair value. New RSU grants for the CEO, CSO/President and non-executive directors deepen equity-based incentives while modestly increasing individual ownership percentages.

The proposed reverse share split, at a ratio of up to 3:1, is framed as a tool to help maintain Nasdaq listing under updated Rule 5810(c)(3)(A). Actual impact on trading price, liquidity and perception is uncertain, and the Board emphasizes flexibility to implement one or more splits within 12 months if needed. Overall, the combination of sizable warrant capacity, richer incentive ceilings and potential reverse split is likely to be viewed cautiously by investors focused on dilution and control of future equity issuance.

Board Recommendation

 

The Board unanimously recommends that you vote in favor of the above proposals as further described in the attached proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”).

 

Record Date

 

Shareholders of record at the close of business on January 22, 2026 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting, either in person or by appointing a proxy to vote their shares at the Meeting, as described below.

  

How You Can Vote

 

A form of proxy for use at the Meeting is attached to the Proxy Statement and, together with a return envelope, will be sent to holders of Ordinary Shares. By appointing “proxies,” shareholders may vote at the Meeting whether or not they attend. If a properly executed proxy in the attached form is received by the Company at least four (4) hours prior to the Meeting, all Ordinary Shares represented by the proxy shall be voted as indicated on the form.

 

Subject to applicable law and the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, in the absence of instructions, the Ordinary Shares represented by properly executed and received proxies will be voted “FOR” all of the proposals to be presented at the Meeting for which the Board recommends a “FOR”.

 

 

 

 

Shareholders may revoke their proxies or voting instruction form (as applicable) in accordance with Section 9 of the Regulations (Proxy and Position Statement) under the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the “Companies Law”), by filing with the Company a written notice of revocation or duly executed proxy or voting instruction form (as applicable) bearing a later date and time.

 

If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, VStock Transfer, LLC, you are considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record. In such case, these proxy materials are being sent directly to you. As the shareholder of record, you have the right to use the proxy card included with the Proxy Statement to grant your voting proxy directly to Mr. Alon Mualem, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, or to Mr. Asher Dahan, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board (e-mail addresses: alonmualem@wearabledevices.co.il; asher.dahan@wearabledevices.co.il), or to vote in person at the Meeting.

 

If your Ordinary Shares are held through a bank, broker or other nominee, they are considered to be held in “street name” and you are the beneficial owner with respect to those Ordinary Shares. A beneficial owner as of the Record Date has the right to direct the bank, broker or nominee how to vote Ordinary Shares held by such beneficial owner at the Meeting. If your Ordinary Shares were held in “street name,” as of the Record Date, these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your bank, broker or nominee who is considered, with respect to those Ordinary Shares, as the shareholder of record, together with a voting instruction card for you to use in directing the bank, broker or nominee how to vote your Ordinary Shares. You may also attend the Meeting. Because a beneficial owner is not a shareholder of record, you may not vote those Ordinary Shares directly at the Meeting unless you obtain a “legal proxy” from the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your Ordinary Shares directly, giving you the right to vote the Ordinary Shares at the Meeting, and providing the Company with a copy of your identity card, passport or certification of incorporation, as the case may be. Absent specific instructions from the beneficial owner of the Ordinary Shares, we believe that brokers are not allowed to exercise their voting discretion with respect to the Proposals No. 3, 4, 5, and 6 herein, which we believe are considered as non-routine, and therefore, a “broker non-vote” will occur with respect to such uninstructed Ordinary Shares. It is important for a shareholder that holds Ordinary Shares through a bank or broker to instruct its bank or broker how to vote its Ordinary Shares.

 

Voting Results

 

The final voting results will be tallied by the Company based on the information provided by VStock Transfer, LLC. or otherwise and the overall results of the Meeting will be published following the Meeting in a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K that will be furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

  Sincerely,
   
  Asher Dahan
  Chief Executive Officer

  PROXY STATEMENT  

 

SPECIAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON FEBRUARY 19, 2026

 

This proxy statement (this “Proxy Statement”) is being filed by Wearable Devices Ltd. (the “Company”) to solicit proxies on behalf of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) for use at the Company’s special general meeting of shareholders (the “Meeting”) to be held on February 19, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. Israel time, or at any adjournment or postponement thereof.

 

Upon the receipt of a properly executed proxy in the form enclosed, the persons named as proxies therein will vote the ordinary shares, no par value per share, of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”), covered thereby in accordance with the directions of the shareholders executing such proxy. In the absence of such directions, and except as otherwise mentioned in this Proxy Statement, the Ordinary Shares represented thereby will be voted in favor of the proposals described in this Proxy Statement.

 

Quorum and Adjournment

 

As a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to comply with Israeli corporate governance practices instead of certain requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market Listing Rules (“Nasdaq” and the “Nasdaq Rules”, respectively), provided that we disclose those Nasdaq Rules with which we do not comply with and the equivalent Israeli requirement that we follow instead (the “Foreign Private Issuer Exemption”). We currently rely on this Foreign Private Issuer Exemption with respect to the quorum requirement for meetings of our shareholders. As permitted under the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the “Companies Law”) and in accordance with our Amended and Restated Articles of Association (the “Articles”), two or more shareholders present, in person or by proxy, holding in the aggregate not less than twenty five percent (25%) of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, shall constitute a quorum for the Meeting.

 

If within half an hour from the time the Meeting is convened a quorum is not present, the Meeting shall stand adjourned to the same day, February 19, 2026, at 11:30 a.m. Israel time (the “Adjourned Meeting”). At the Adjourned Meeting, any number of shareholders present in person or by proxy shall be deemed a quorum and shall be entitled to deliberate and to resolve in respect of the matters for which the Meeting was convened. Abstentions and broker non-votes (if any) are counted for the purpose of determining a quorum.

 

Required Vote and Voting Procedures

 

Pursuant to the Companies Law, each of Proposals No. 1, 2, 5and 7 described hereinafter requires the affirmative vote of shareholders present at the Meeting, in person or by proxy, and holding Ordinary Shares amounting in the aggregate to at least a majority of the votes actually cast by shareholders with respect to such proposal (a “Simple Majority”).

 

Proposals No. 3, 4 and 6 described hereinafter, are each subject to the fulfillment of the aforementioned voting requirements and also one of the following additional voting requirements: (i) the majority of the Ordinary Shares that are voted at the Meeting in favor of such proposal, excluding abstentions, include a majority of the votes of shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and do not have a personal interest in the proposal; or (ii) the total number of Ordinary Shares of the shareholders mentioned in clause (i) above that are voted against such proposal does not exceed two percent (2%) of the total voting rights in the Company (a “Special Majority”).

 

In case Proposal No. 3 is approved, Proposal No. 6 will require a Simple Majority, as defined above.

  

For this purpose, a “Controlling Shareholder” is defined under the Companies Law as any shareholder that has the ability to direct the Company’s activities (other than by means of being a director or officer of the Company). A person is presumed to be a Controlling Shareholder if he or she holds or controls, by himself or herself or together with others, one half or more of any one of the “means of control” of a company. In the context of a transaction with an interested party, a shareholder who holds twenty five percent (25%) or more of the voting rights in a company is also presumed to be a Controlling Shareholder if no other shareholder holds more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting rights in such company. “Means of Control” is defined as either: (i) the right to vote at a general meeting of a company, or (ii) the right to appoint directors of a company or its chief executive officer.

 

3

 

 

For this purpose, “Personal Interest” is defined under the Companies Law as: (1) a shareholder’s personal interest in the approval of an act or a transaction of the company, including (i) the personal interest of any of his or her relatives (which includes for these purposes foregoing shareholder’s spouse, siblings, parents, grandparents, descendants, and spouse’s descendants, siblings, and parents, and the spouse of any of the foregoing); (ii) a personal interest of a corporation in which a shareholder or any of his or her aforementioned relatives serve as a director or the chief executive officer, owns at least five percent (5%) of its issued share capital or its voting rights or has the right to appoint a director or chief executive officer; or (iii) a personal interest of an individual voting via a power of attorney given by a third party (even if the empowering shareholder has no personal interest), and the vote of an attorney-in-fact shall be considered a personal interest vote if the empowering shareholder has a personal interest, and all with no regard as to whether the attorney-in-fact has voting discretion or not, but (2) excludes a personal interest arising solely from the fact of holding shares in the company.

 

According to the Companies Law Regulations (Exemptions for Companies whose Securities are Listed for Trading on a Stock Exchange Outside of Israel) 5760-2000, by signing and submitting the attached Proxy Card, a shareholder of record declares and approves that he or she are not a controlling shareholder and/or has no personal interest in the approval of any of the items on the Meeting agenda that requires such declaration under the Companies Law, with the exception of a personal interest that the shareholder positively informed the Company about, as detailed in the attached Proxy Card.

 

In accordance with the Companies Law and regulations promulgated thereunder, any shareholder of the Company holding at least one percent (1%) of the outstanding voting rights of the Company for the Meeting may submit to the Company a proposed additional agenda item for the Meeting by delivering such proposal to Mr. Alon Mualem, e-mail address: alonmualem@wearabledevices.co.il, no later than January 22, 2026.

 

Shareholders wishing to express their position on an agenda item for this Meeting may do so by submitting a statement (a “Position Statement”) to the Company’s offices located at 5 Ha-Tnufa Street, Yokne-am Illit, Israel 2066736. Any Position Statement received will be furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K and will be made available to the public on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Position Statements should be submitted to the Company no later than February 9, 2026. A shareholder is entitled to contact the Company directly and receive the text of the proxy card and any Position Statement. The Board’s response to the Position Statement will be submitted no later than the end of February 13, 2026.

 

One shareholder or more holding Ordinary Shares representing five percent (5%) or more of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital and voting rights as of the Record Date (i.e., 473,206 Ordinary Shares) are entitled to examine the proxy and voting materials.

 

It is noted that there may be changes on the agenda after publishing this Proxy Statement. Therefore, the most updated agenda will be furnished to the SEC on a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K and will be made available to the public on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

PROPOSAL 1

 

TO APPROVE THE PRIVATE PLACEMENT OF WARRANTS TO PURCHASE ORDINARY SHARES,
PURSUANT TO A SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT, AND AN AMENDMENT TO CERTAIN TERMS OF EXISTING WARRANTS

 

Background

 

Under Section 274 of the Companies Law, a private placement that grants twenty percent (20%) or more of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital, which is not on market terms and increases the holdings of a ‘material shareholder’ as defined under the Companies Law (i.e., a shareholder that holds at least five percent (5%) of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital), requires the approval of a company’s shareholders. In accordance with the regulations promulgated under the Companies Law and subject to certain conditions, the Company may alternatively follow regulations that apply to companies that are traded on Nasdaq and that regulate private offerings.

 

The Private Placement

 

On October 29, 2025, the Board approved a registered direct offering by the Company, to a single institutional investor (the “Registered Direct Offering”, and the “Investor”, respectively) of: (i) 655,000 Ordinary Shares, at an offering price of $2.67 per share; and (ii) pre-funded warrants to acquire up to 575,000 Ordinary Shares (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) at an offering price of $2.6699 per Pre-Funded Warrant, together with an accompanying Ordinary Warrant. The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.3 million from the Registered Direct Offering, before deducting fees and other expenses payable by the Company.

 

Additionally, the Board approved, and recommended that the Company’s shareholders approve: (i) a concurrent private placement (together with the Registered Direct Offering, the “Offering”) of warrants to purchase up to 1,230,000 Ordinary Shares, at an exercise price of $2.67 per Ordinary Share (the “Ordinary Warrants”), to the Investor; and (ii) in connection with the Offering, an amendment to the warrants that were previously issued in September 2025 to the Investor, that originally entitled the Investor to purchase up to 1,000,000 Ordinary Shares of the Company, with an exercise price of $4.00 per share, and up to 670,000 Ordinary Shares of the Company, with an exercise price of $6.00 per share, such that all of the mentioned existing warrants will have an amended exercise price of $2.67 per share (the “Amended Warrants” and the “Warrant Amendment”, respectively). The above Offering and Warrant Amendment are all in accordance with the terms of the securities purchase agreement and the Warrant Amendment Agreement, which were filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 4.3, respectively, to the Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K of the Company, furnished to the SEC on October 31, 2025.

 

Having discussed and considered the relevant provisions of the Companies Law, and of certain regulations that apply to companies that are traded on Nasdaq and that regulate private offerings, the Board approved and recommends to the Company’s shareholders to approve the private placement of the Ordinary Warrants and the Warrant Amendment.

 

Proposed Terms of the Ordinary Warrants

 

The 1,230,000 Ordinary Warrants, if issued and exercised, reflect approximately 6.2% of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital, on a fully diluted basis (including securities pending to be issued upon shareholders’ approval) as of January 15, 2026.

 

According to the Offering terms, if the Company does not obtain shareholders’ approval at the Meeting, the Company shall call a meeting every six (6) months thereafter to seek shareholder approval until the earlier of the date on which shareholder approval is obtained or the Ordinary Warrants are no longer outstanding.

 

The exercise price and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Ordinary Warrants (the “Ordinary Warrant Shares”) are subject to adjustment in the event of share dividends, share splits, subsequent rights offerings, pro rata distributions, reorganizations, or similar events affecting the Ordinary Shares or the exercise price.

 

The Company has agreed to file a registration statement on Form F-1 or Form F-3 providing for registration of the re-sale of the Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Ordinary Warrants by the Investor.

 

5

 

 

Proposed Terms of the Amended Warrants

 

The 1,670,000 Amended Warrants, if exercised, represent approximately 8.4% of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital, on a fully diluted basis (including securities pending to be issued upon shareholders’ approval) as of January 15, 2026. The Amended Warrants shall expire five years from the date shareholder approval is obtained.

 

Under the terms of the Warrant Amendment Agreement, if the Company does not obtain shareholders’ approval at the Meeting, the Company shall call a meeting every six (6) months thereafter to seek shareholder approval until the earlier of the date on which shareholder approval is obtained or the Amended Warrants are no longer outstanding.

 

The exercise price and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Amended Warrants (the “Amended Warrant Shares”) are subject to adjustment in the event of share dividends, share splits, subsequent rights offerings, pro rata distributions, reorganizations, or similar events affecting the Ordinary Shares or the exercise price.

 

Board’s recommendation

 

In making their decision to approve and to recommend that the Company’s shareholders approve the issuance of the Ordinary Warrants and the amendment to the Amended Warrants, the Board considered numerous factors, including (i) that in order to finance its current operations, the Company requires additional funding; (ii) the Company’s cash balance prior to the Offering; (iii) that the Offering was expected to advance the Company’s financial strategy; (iv) the Company’s continuous evaluation of alternative financing options; (v) that as of the date of the Offering, the most favorable financing alternative available to the Company was through the Offering; and (vi) that the Board reviewed the terms of the proposed transaction, including in comparison to the market price of the Ordinary Shares, and determined that the transaction is in the best interests of the Company.

 

The shareholders of the Company are requested to adopt the following resolution:

 

RESOLVED, to approve the private placement of the Ordinary Warrants pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Warrant Amendment to certain terms of existing warrants, as set forth in the Proxy Statement.”

 

The approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a Simple Majority (as defined in this Proxy Statement).

  

The Board unanimously recommends that the shareholders vote FOR the above proposal.

PROPOSAL 2

 

TO APPROVE A PRIVATE PLACEMENT OF NEW WARRANTS TO PURCHASE ORDINARY SHARES, PURSUANT TO AN INDUCEMENT OFFER LETTER AGREEMENT

 

Background

 

Under Section 274 of the Companies Law, a private placement that grants twenty percent (20%) or more of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital, which is not on market terms and increases the holdings of a ‘material shareholder’ as defined under the Companies Law (i.e., a shareholder that holds at least five percent (5%) of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital), requires the approval of the Company’s shareholders.

 

The Warrant Inducement

 

On November 26, 2025, the Board approved, and recommended that the Company’s shareholders approve, a private placement of warrants to purchase up to 5,813,500 Ordinary Shares, at an exercise price of $1.86 per Ordinary Share (the “New Warrants”), to the Investor (as defined in Proposal No. 1) , in consideration of the immediate exercise of 3,322,000 warrants to purchase up to 3,322,000 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of $1.71 per Ordinary Share by the Investor (the “Warrant Inducement” and the “Existing Warrants,” respectively), all under the terms specified in the inducement offer letter agreement dated November 26, 2025, between the Investor and the Company (|the “Inducement Letter”), which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Report of a Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K of the Company, furnished to the SEC on December 1, 2025.

 

The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $5.68 million from the exercise of the Existing Warrants by the Investor, before deducting fees and other expenses payable by the Company.

 

Proposed Terms of the New Warrants

 

The New Warrants, if issued and exercised, will represent 29.1% of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital, on a fully diluted basis (including securities pending to be issued upon shareholders’ approval) as of January 15, 2026. In addition, the issuance is not on market terms, as such term is defined under the Companies Law, and therefore Section 274 of the Companies Law requires the issuance of the New Warrants to be approved by the Company’s shareholders.

 

Under the Inducement Letter terms, if the Company does not obtain shareholders’ approval at the Meeting, the Company shall call a meeting every 90 days thereafter to seek shareholders’ approval until the earlier of the date on which shareholder approval is obtained or the New Warrants are no longer outstanding.

 

The exercise price and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants are subject to adjustment in the event of share dividends, share splits, subsequent rights offerings, pro rata distributions, reorganizations, or similar events affecting the Ordinary Shares or the exercise price.

 

The Company has agreed to file a registration statement on Form F-1 or Form F-3 providing for registration of the re-sale of the Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the New Warrants by the Investor.

 

Board’s recommendation

 

In making their decision to approve and to recommend that the Company’s shareholders approve the issuance of the New Warrants, the Board considered numerous factors, including (i) that in order to finance its current operations, the Company requires additional funding; (ii) the Company’s cash balance prior to the Warrant Inducement; (iii) the Company’s continuous evaluation of alternative financing options; (iv) that as of the date of the Warrant Inducement, the most favorable financing alternative available to the Company was through the Warrant inducement; and (v) that the Board reviewed the terms of the proposed transaction, including in comparison to the market price of the Ordinary Shares, and determined that the transaction is in the best interests of the Company.

    

The shareholders of the Company are requested to adopt the following resolution:

 

RESOLVED, to approve the private placement of the New Warrants, pursuant to the Inducement Offer Letter Agreement, as set forth in the Proxy Statement.”

 

The approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a Simple Majority (as defined in this Proxy Statement).

  

The Board unanimously recommends that the shareholders vote FOR the above proposal.

PROPOSAL 3

 

TO APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY’S AMENDED AND RESTATED COMPENSATION
POLICY FOR COMPANY’S OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS

 

Pursuant to the Companies Law, all public Israeli companies are required to adopt a written compensation policy for their executives, which addresses certain items prescribed by the Companies Law and serves as a flexible framework for executive and director compensation. Accordingly, on March 6, 2022, the Company adopted a compensation policy, for a period of five (5) years, as amended by approval of the shareholders of the Company, and as most recently amended on September 19, 2025 (the “Current Compensation Policy”).

 

The Board wishes to update the Current Compensation Policy in accordance with current market standards. In light of the above and in order to adhere to the global best practices in executive compensation and to ascertain the positioning of our directors’ and office holders’ pay packages vis-à-vis our peers, the Company requested a benchmarking study of peer companies, which was subsequently conducted by an external consultant. The study included executive compensation information of comparable companies in the technology field (the “External Benchmark Study”).

 

Therefore, on December 22, 2025 and December 23, 2025, the Company’s compensation committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) and the Board, respectively, approved and recommended to the shareholders of the Company to approve, the adoption of an amendment to the Current Compensation Policy, which presents the following changes (the “Amended Compensation Policy”):

The shareholders of the Company are requested to adopt the following resolution:

 

RESOLVED, to approve and adopt the Amended Compensation Policy for the Company’s directors and officers, in the form attached as Exhibit A to the Proxy Statement.”

PROPOSAL 6

 

TO APPROVE A ONE-TIME GRANT OF EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION TO
NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY

 

On December 22, 2025 and December 23, 2025 (in this proposal, the “Date of Grant”) the Compensation Committee and the Board, respectively, approved and recommended that the Company’s shareholders to approve, a one-time grant of RSUs representing an amount of $166,620 for each of the non-executive directors of the Company currently serving on the Company’s board (the “Non-Executive Directors”). Accordingly, the Company wishes to grant RSUs of up to 90,000 Ordinary Shares to each of Ms. Ilana Lurie, Mr. Yaacov Goldman, and Mr. Eli Bachar, who are serving as Non-Executive Directors of the Company as of the date hereof, in accordance with the Amended Compensation Policy and the 2024 Plan (the “Grant of RSUs to Non-Executive Directors”). The Grant of RSUs to Non-Executive Directors is not within the framework of the Current Compensation Policy.

 

The total value of the Grant of RSUs to Non-Executive Directors is $166,620 (approximately NIS 532,000) to each one of them, based on the average of the market price of the Company’s Ordinary Shares in the last 30 days prior to the Date of Grant. The terms of the Grant of RSUs to Non-Executive Directors are not within the framework of the Current Compensation Policy, but are within the framework of the Amended Compensation Policy.

 

The Ordinary Shares underlying the Grant of RSUs to Non-Executive Directors, together with 70,555 Ordinary Shares that will result from the exercise of outstanding options, or from the settlement of RSUs, previously granted to the Ms. Ilana Lurie, Mr. Yaacov Goldman, and Mr. Eli Bachar (a total of 340,555 Ordinary Shares), will cause the aggregate holdings of Ms. Ilana Lurie, Mr. Yaacov Goldman, and Mr. Eli Bachar to be equal to approximately 1.67% of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital on a fully diluted basis (including securities pending to be issued upon shareholders’ approval) as of January 15, 2026.

 

The following table sets forth the suggested Grant of RSUs to Non-Executive Directors, with regards to Ms. Ilana Lurie, Mr. Yaacov Goldman, and Mr. Eli Bachar, which the Compensation Committee and the Board believe to be in the best interests of the Company:

The RSUs are granted in accordance with the capital gain track of Section 102 of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance, 1961, or as may otherwise be applicable.

PROPOSAL 7

 

TO APPROVE ONE OR MORE REVERSE SHARE SPLITS OF THE COMPANY’S ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING ORDINARY SHARES AT AN AGGREGATE RATIO OF UP TO 3:1, TO BE IN EFFECT, IF EFFECTED, AT THE DISCRETION OF, AND AT SUCH DATE TO BE DETERMINED BY THE BOARD

 

On December 23, 2025, the Board approved, subject to the approval of the general meeting of the Company’s shareholders, a framework for a potential adjustment of the Company’s share capital at a ratio of up to 1-for-3, with respect to the Company’s issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, such that up to every three (3) Ordinary Shares shall be converted into one (1) Ordinary Share, and/or any Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to exercise or conversion of outstanding options, RSUs and/or warrants issued by the Company, to be effected, if effected, at the discretion of, and at such date to be determined by the Board (the “Reverse Split”).

 

If the Reverse Split is approved, then the Board will have the authority, at its own discretion, to determine whether to effect one or more Reverse Splits, and the exact ratio and the effective date of the Reverse Split until up to twelve (12) months following the shareholders’ approval. Following such determination by the Board, the Company will issue a press release announcing the effective date and the ratio of the Reverse Split.

 

The Board believes that it is appropriate and in the best interest of the Company, to approve the Reverse Split, and that the Reverse Split will help to support the continued listing of the Company’s Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq, which will enable the Company to have better access to the public capital markets while providing for greater liquidity for the Company’s shareholders. In addition, the Board believes that a reverse share split is advisable in order to make the Company’s Ordinary Shares more attractive to a broader range of investors.

  

Further, the Board believes that approval of a proposal providing the Board with this generalized grant of authority with respect to setting the Reverse Split ratios, rather than mere approval of a pre-defined reverse stock split, will give the Board the flexibility to set the ratio in accordance with current market conditions and therefore allow the Board to act in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

 

Importantly, the Board notes that under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), as recently amended, if a company has effected a reverse share split within the prior two-year period and subsequently fails to meet the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement, such company may not be eligible for the standard 180-day grace period to regain compliance. Instead, the company may face immediate delisting proceedings, leaving a significantly shorter window (typically 30 to 45 days during a hearings process) to effect a cure. Accordingly, the Board believes that obtaining shareholder approval at this time is critical to provide the Company with the necessary flexibility to respond swiftly to any such regulatory requirements and to ensure the Company’s Ordinary Shares remain listed on Nasdaq.

 

The implementation of one or more Reverse Splits will result in the reduction of the number of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares in accordance with the exchange ratio (up to 3:1), such that if the Reverse Split is approved, depending on the ratio, up to three (3) Ordinary Shares, issued and outstanding, shall be converted into one (1) Ordinary Share. The Reverse Split, if effected, would not adjust the authorized share capital of the Company under the Company’s Articles, which, as of the date hereof consists of 500,000,000 Ordinary Shares.

 

In addition, if the Reverse Split is effected, the exercise price and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of any outstanding options, RSUs and/or warrants will be proportionately adjusted pursuant to the terms of the respective securities in connection with the Reverse Split. Furthermore, upon completion of the Reverse Split, the number of Ordinary Shares and/or any options or RSUs available for issuance under the 2024 Plan and the Wearable Devices Ltd. 2024 Employee Stock Purchase Plan shall be appropriately adjusted.

 

The Reverse Split, if effected, will be effected simultaneously for all of the Company’s securities, and the exchange ratio will be the same for all securities. The Reverse Split will affect all the Company’s shareholders uniformly and will not affect any shareholder’s percentage ownership interests in the Company, relative voting rights or other rights. Ordinary Shares resulting from the Reverse Split will remain fully paid and non-assessable.

 

No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the Reverse Split. In accordance with our Articles, all fractional shares will be rounded to the nearest whole Ordinary Share.

 

13

 

 

Upon the implementation of the Reverse Split, the Company intends to treat shares held by shareholders through a bank, broker, custodian, or other nominee in the same manner as registered shareholders whose shares are registered in their names. Banks, brokers, custodians, or other nominees will be instructed to effect the Reverse Split for their beneficial holders holding the Company’s Ordinary Shares in street name. However, these banks, brokers, custodians, or other nominees may have different procedures than registered shareholders for processing the Reverse Split. Shareholders who hold the Company’s Ordinary Shares with a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee and who have any queries in this regard are encouraged to contact their banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees. 

 

While the Board believes that the potential advantages of a Reverse Split outweigh any actual or potential disadvantages, if the Company does effect a Reverse Split there can be no assurance that (i) the Company’s Ordinary Shares will trade at a price in proportion to the decrease in the number of outstanding shares resulting from the Reverse Split; (ii) the liquidity of the Company’s Ordinary Shares will not be adversely affected by the reduced number of shares that would be outstanding and available for trading after the Reverse Split; (iii) engaging in a Reverse Split will not be perceived in a negative manner by investors, analysts or other stock market participants; or (iv) the Reverse Split will not result in some shareholders owning “odd-lots” of fewer than 100 Ordinary Shares, potentially resulting in higher brokerage commissions and other transaction costs than the commissions and costs of transactions in “round-lots” of even multiples of 100 shares.

 

THE U.S. AND ISRAELI TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REVERSE SPLIT MAY DEPEND UPON THE PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES OF EACH SHAREHOLDER. ACCORDINGLY, EACH SHAREHOLDER IS ADVISED TO CONSULT THE SHAREHOLDER’S TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO ALL OF THE POTENTIAL TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THE SHAREHOLDER OF THE REVERSE SPLIT 

 

The Board believes that the Reverse Split is appropriate and in the best interest of the Company’s shareholders.

 

The shareholders of the Company are requested to adopt the following resolution:

 

“RESOLVED, to approve one or more reverse share splits of the Company’s issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares at an aggregate ratio of up to 3:1, to be effected, if effected, at the discretion of and on such date to be determined by the Board, as set forth in the Proxy Statement”.

 

The approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a Simple Majority (as defined in this Proxy Statement).

 

The Board unanimously recommends that the shareholders vote FOR the above proposal.

Dated: September 2025

 

1.Introduction

 

1.1Pursuant to the provisions of the Companies Law, 1999 (hereafter – “the Companies Law”), on March 6, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a compensation policy (hereafter – the “Policy”) with respect to the terms of service and / or employment of Company’s office holders (as defined below) (hereafter - the “office holders”), after discussing and considering the recommendations of the Company’s Compensation Committee regarding this matter.

 

1.2The provisions of the Policy shall be subject to the provisions of any cogent law applicable to the Company and its office holders in any territory.

 

1.3The underlying principles and purposes of the Policy are as follows: (a) promoting the Company’s goals, its work plan and its policy for the long-term; (b) compensating and providing incentives to office holders, while considering the risks that the Company’s activities involve; (c) adjusting the compensation package to the size of the Company and the nature and scope of its activities; (d) creating incentives that are suitable to Company’s office holders by compensating those entitled for compensation under the Policy in accordance with their positions, areas of responsibility and contribution to the development of the Company’s business, the promotion of its targets and the maximization of profits in the short and long-term, taking into account, among other things, the need to recruit and retain qualified, highly-skilled officers in a global and competitive market; and (e) adjusting the compensation of office holders to the contribution of the office holder to the achievement of the Company’s goals.

 

1.4This Policy is a multi-annual policy that will be effective for a period of five years from the date of its approval. This policy shall be brought forward for re-approval by the Company’s Compensation Committee, the Company’s Board of Directors and the general meeting of its shareholders after three years have elapsed since the date of approval thereof and so forth, unless any changes need to be made to the Policy in accordance with the law and/or in accordance with the Company’s needs.

 

1.5Without derogating from the provisions set out in Section 1.4 above, the Company’s Compensation Committee and Board of Directors shall check, from time to time, whether the compensation that is granted under this policy, does, indeed, comply with the terms of this policy and the parameters set therein for each Company office holder.

 

1.6This Policy is based, among other things, on the Company’s assessments as to the competitive environment in which it operates and the challenge it faces in recruiting and retaining high-quality officers in such an environment; it is also based on employment terms generally accepted in public companies operating in the Company’s area of activity and on existing employment agreements between the Company and its office holder, which – in order to remove any doubt – this policy cannot change.

The Compensation Committee will be responsible for approving the amounts to be recouped and for setting terms for such recoupment from time to time in accordance with a recoupment policy adopted from time to time by the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors.

2.17The ratio between the salary of office holders and the salary of all other Company employees as of the date of the compensation policy

 

The ratio of the average and median salary between the officers to the other full-time employees will be up to the following ratios:

 

Role   Ratio to the average
salary6
    Ratio to Median
salary
 
CEO     7       7  
Subordinate office holders     6       6  

 

As of the date of the compensation policy in the Company, there are 12 full-time employees who are not office holders. It is clarified that for the purpose of calculating the aforesaid ratios, only the employees of Wearable Devices Ltd. were included.

 

At the time of approval of the compensation policy, the compensation committee examined the existing gaps between the officers and the other employees. The existing Ratio of CEO and subordinate office holders to average salary is approximately 2. The compensation committee and the Board of Directors believe that these data have a limited effect on determining the salaries of the Company’s officers, given the structure of the Company, the small number of full-time employees and the low salary of CEO and office holders reflected by the financial condition of the company prior the significant fund raising.

FAQ

What is Wearable Devices Ltd. (WLDS) asking shareholders to approve at the February 19, 2026 meeting?

Shareholders are being asked to approve private placements and amendments of warrants issued to an institutional investor, a new series of inducement warrants, an amended executive and director compensation policy, RSU grants to the CEO, CSO/President and non-executive directors, and authorization for one or more reverse share splits of up to 3:1 at the Board’s discretion.

How large is the new warrant inducement for Wearable Devices (WLDS)?

The inducement involves New Warrants to purchase up to 5,813,500 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of $1.86 per share. If issued and exercised, these New Warrants would represent 29.1% of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital on a fully diluted basis as of January 15, 2026.

What are the key terms of the earlier registered direct offering described in the WLDS proxy?

The Board previously approved a registered direct offering of 655,000 Ordinary Shares at $2.67 per share and pre-funded warrants for up to 575,000 Ordinary Shares at $2.6699 per warrant, together with accompanying Ordinary Warrants, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.3 million before expenses.

How is Wearable Devices changing its executive and director compensation policy?

The amended policy raises the CEO’s maximum basic monthly salary from $27,500 to $30,000, increases the CEO’s maximum annual bonus from up to 9 to up to 18 salaries, raises caps for subordinate office holders, expands permitted long-term equity values (up to 35 monthly salaries for the CEO), and allows director equity grants with annual fair-value expenses up to $225,000.

What RSU grants are proposed for the CEO and CSO/President of Wearable Devices?

The Company proposes RSU grants of up to 150,000 Ordinary Shares to CEO and Chairman Asher Dahan and up to 150,000 Ordinary Shares to CSO, President and Director Guy Wagner. Each grant has a total value of $277,700 based on the 30-day average share price before the December 22–23, 2025 grant date and vests monthly over 36 months starting January 1, 2026, with full acceleration upon a Double Trigger Event.

The Board seeks approval for one or more reverse share splits of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares at an aggregate ratio of up to 3:1, to be effected, if at all, at the Board’s discretion within 12 months of approval. The move is intended to help support continued Nasdaq listing, and would proportionally adjust outstanding options, RSUs and warrants while leaving authorized share capital unchanged.

How will the proposed non-executive director RSUs affect their holdings in WLDS?

Each of the three non-executive directors (Ilana Lurie, Yaacov Goldman and Eli Bachar) is proposed to receive up to 90,000 RSUs, valued at $166,620 each, vesting monthly over 36 months from January 1, 2026.
