Genius Group Announces Share Consolidation to Support Exchange Listing Compliance

News originally published by

GlobeNewswire

The share consolidation is intended to support the Company’s continued compliance with NYSE American’s minimum share price requirements.

SINGAPORE, Nov. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Genius Group Limited (NYSE American: GNS) (“Genius Group”, “GNS” or the “Company”), a leading AI-powered education group, today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a 1-for-10 share consolidation of the Company’s ordinary shares. The action is intended to increase the per-share trading price and support compliance with NYSE American’s continued listing standards, while positioning the Company for its proposed dual listing on the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”), subject to applicable approvals and requirements.

The share consolidation is expected to become effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on November 20, 2026, and the Company’s ordinary shares are expected to commence trading on a split-adjusted basis when NYSE American opens on November 20, 2026 under the existing trading symbol “GNS”. The new CUSIP number for the Company’s ordinary shares following the share consolidation will be announced via a further press release.

Shareholders approved authority for the share consolidation at the Company’s Annual General Meeting on July 7, 2026. On November 6, 2026, the Board determined to implement the consolidation at a ratio of 1-for-10, with a record date of November 19, 2026 and an expected effective date of November 20, 2026.

The Company’s shares have been trading at a price of approximately $0.10 per share over recent trading days. The NYSE American has advised the Company that it generally views trading below $0.10 per share to be abnormally low under Section 1003(f)(v) of the NYSE American Company Guide, and that it may commence delisting proceedings and immediately suspend trading at such levels.

The Board considers the consolidation a necessary step in light of this, as well as to strengthen the Company’s capital-market positioning as it advances its proposed ASX dual listing, continues to build towards operational profitability, and streamlines its share structure. The action is intended to bring the per-share trading price into a range more consistent with institutional investment thresholds and exchange listing standards across both NYSE American and the ASX. A share consolidation does not, by itself, guarantee that the market price will rise or remain above any threshold, and exchange determinations remain subject to NYSE American’s rules and discretion.

How the share consolidation affects shareholders

Every ten issued and outstanding ordinary shares will automatically be consolidated into one ordinary share of the same class. For example, a shareholder holding 1,000 shares immediately before the consolidation would hold 100 shares afterward, before any fractional-share adjustment.

The consolidation does not, by itself, change a shareholder’s proportionate ownership of the Company or its underlying business. The trading price following the consolidation will be determined by the market.

Proportionate adjustments will be made, where applicable, to the exercise prices and numbers of shares underlying outstanding warrants, options and equity awards in accordance with their terms.

No fractional shares will be issued. Under the treatment set out in the Board-approved plan, fractional entitlements will be rounded down to the nearest whole share and cancelled.

Holders of book-entry shares and shareholders holding through brokers, banks or other nominees are not expected to need to take action; their holdings will be adjusted through the relevant intermediaries. Shareholders with questions should contact their broker or the transfer agent.
