NOTE 7. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY Common Stock At the annual shareholder meeting held on March 7, 2025, the stockholders voted to approve the amendments to the Companys Articles of Incorporation to effect a 1 for 500 reverse stock split of the Companys common stock followed immediately by an amendment to the Companys Restated Articles of Incorporation to effect a 5 for 1 forward stock split of the Companys Common Stock, herein referred to as the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. On April 1, 2025, the Board of Directors authorized the implementation of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.
