[PRE 14C] CleanCore Solutions Inc. Preliminary Information Statement
CleanCore Solutions, Inc. stockholders approved an amendment to increase authorized Class B common stock from 250,000,000 to 2,000,000,000 shares, resulting in 2,050,000,000 authorized common shares and 50,000,000 authorized preferred shares under the Certificate of Amendment. The Written Consent was delivered on August 11, 2025 by Clayton Adams, the Chairman and CEO, who held 1,875,795 Class A shares and 993,000 Class B shares representing approximately 67.90% of total voting power as of the Record Date.
The amendment will become effective upon filing with the Nevada Secretary of State following the 20th day after this Information Statement is first mailed. The company states the increase is intended to provide flexibility for capital raising, mergers and acquisitions, equity incentive grants and other corporate purposes, while noting there are currently no present plans to issue additional Class B shares other than specified items (at-the-market facility, Equity Incentive Plan grants, exercises of outstanding options and warrants, or possible financings). The Information Statement discloses that the increase could dilute existing stockholders and may have anti-takeover effects, and that Class B holders have no dissenters' appraisal rights in connection with the amendment.

Insights
TL;DR: A large authorized-share increase expands financing and M&A flexibility but creates dilution risk; approval was obtained via majority written consent.
The amendment raises Class B authorized shares from 250,000,000 to 2,000,000,000, giving the board scope to issue equity for capital raising, acquisitions, equity incentives or other corporate purposes without additional stockholder votes except where required. The company explicitly lists near-term issuance triggers (at-the-market facility, Equity Incentive Plan grants, option/warrant exercises, possible financings) but states there are no present plans beyond those items. From a capital-structure standpoint, the change materially increases the pool of issuable common stock and therefore increases potential dilution for current Class B holders if shares are issued.
TL;DR: Governance concerns: majority holder used written consent, other stockholders were not given a vote, and the amendment may have anti-takeover implications.
The Written Consent dated August 11, 2025, was delivered by Clayton Adams, who controlled ~67.90% of the voting power as of the Record Date, and no meeting or proxy solicitation was held for other stockholders. The Information Statement acknowledges the increase could be used to dilute challengers or entrench management, and it confirms Class B holders have no dissenters' or appraisal rights. These features are material to minority holders because they limit shareholder participation in the action and increase the board's unilateral ability to issue shares within the new authorization.

AUTHORIZATION BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS
On August 11, 2025, our board of directors unanimously adopted resolutions approving the Charter and recommended that our stockholders approve it. In connection with the adoption of these resolutions, our board of directors elected to seek the written consent of stockholders in order to reduce associated costs and implement the Charter Amendment in a timely manner. On August 11, 2025, Clayton Adams, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (the “Majority Stockholder”), executed and delivered the Written Consent to us.
Pursuant to the Nevada Revised Statutes and our bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting if, before or after the action, a written consent thereto is signed by stockholders holding at least a majority of the voting power of our outstanding voting stock, except that if a different proportion of voting power is required for such an action at a meeting, then that proportion of written consents is required.
Pursuant to the Nevada Revised Statutes, the Current Charter and our bylaws, approval of the Charter Amendment at a meeting would require the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of our class A common stock and class B common stock, voting together as a single class.
As of the Record Date, there were 1,875,795 shares of class A common stock and 10,330,846 shares of class B common stock issued and outstanding. Holders of our class A common stock are entitled to ten (10) votes per share and holders of our class B common stock are entitled to one (1) vote per share. Accordingly, a total of 29,088,796 votes were entitled to be cast. As of the Record Date, the Majority Stockholder held 1,875,795 shares of class A common stock and 993,000 shares of class B common stock, or approximately 67.90% of the total votes eligible to be cast.
Accordingly, we have obtained all necessary corporate approvals in connection with the Charter Amendment. We are not seeking written consent from any other stockholder, and other stockholders will not be given an opportunity to vote with respect to the actions described in this Information Statement. All necessary corporate approvals have been obtained. This Information Statement is furnished solely for the purpose of advising stockholders of the action taken by Written Consent and giving stockholders notice of such actions taken as required by the Exchange Act.
As the action taken by the Majority Stockholders was by written consent, there will be no security holders’ meeting and representatives of the principal accountants for the current year and for the most recently completed fiscal year will not have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will not be available to respond to appropriate questions from our stockholders.

Pursuant to the Current Charter, we are authorized to issue up to 300,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of which 50,000,000 shares have been designated as class A common stock and 250,000,000 shares have been designated as class B common stock, and 50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value per share. On August 11, 2025, the Majority Stockholder approved the Charter Amendment to increase the number of shares of class B common stock that we are authorized to issue to 2,000,000,000 shares. The form of the Charter Amendment approved by the Majority Stockholder is attached hereto as Annex A. The Charter Amendment will become effective upon filing with the Nevada Secretary of State’s Office, which will occur promptly following the 20th day after this Information Statement is first mailed to our stockholders.
Reasons for the Share Increase
We believe that the share increase will provide us with increased flexibility in meeting future needs and requirements by providing additional authorized shares, which will be available for issuance from time to time as determined by our board of directors for any proper corporate purpose, without the expense and delay associated with obtaining stockholder approval, except where required by applicable rules, regulations, and laws. In the current market environment, companies of our size and profile are increasingly seeking to position themselves to take advantage of a broad range of corporate opportunities, including but not limited to capital raising activities, mergers and acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, and other business initiatives that may arise. By increasing our authorized share count, we believe our company will be better positioned to respond quickly and effectively to such opportunities, should our board of directors determine that doing so is in the best interests of our company and its stockholders. At this time, other than issuances in connection with our at-the-market facility, future grants under our Equity Incentive Plan, potential issuances of shares upon exercise of currently outstanding options, warrants, and other convertible securities, or possible financing transactions that are being or may be explored with investment banks or other financial institutions from time to time, there are no present plans, understandings, or agreements that would involve the issuance of additional shares of class B common stock. The additional authorized shares will provide our company with the flexibility to pursue a range of potential corporate strategies, as and when appropriate.
Anti-Takeover Implications of the Proposed Share Increase
The increase in the authorized number of shares could have an anti-takeover effect, in that additional shares could be issued (within the limits imposed by applicable law) in one or more transactions that could make a change in control or takeover of our company more difficult. For example, additional shares could be issued by us so as to dilute the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to obtain control of our company, even if the persons seeking to obtain control offer an above-market premium that is favored by a majority of the independent stockholders. Similarly, the issuance of additional shares to certain persons allied with our management could have the effect of making it more difficult to remove our current management by diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to cause such removal. We have no plans or proposals to adopt other provisions or enter into other arrangements that may have material anti-takeover consequences.
Our stockholders should recognize that, as a result of the Charter Amendment, they will own a fewer percentage of shares with respect to our total authorized shares of class B common stock than they presently own and will be diluted as a result of any issuance of shares by us in the future. Notwithstanding the foregoing, other than issuances in connection with our at-the-market facility, future grants under our Equity Incentive Plan, potential issuances of shares upon exercise of currently outstanding options, warrants, and other convertible securities, or possible financing transactions that are being or may be explored with investment banks or other financial institutions from time to time, there are no present plans, understandings, or agreements that would involve the issuance of additional shares of class B common stock. The additional authorized shares are intended to provide our company with the flexibility to pursue a range of potential corporate strategies, including but not limited to capital raising activities, mergers and acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, and other business initiatives, as and when appropriate.
