AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · Blaize Holdings, Inc. (BZAI)

Blaize declares Series B preferred stock dividend tied to possible reverse stock split

Neutral Impact 3 of 5 shareholder Written later

Blaize's board declared a dividend of one one-thousandth of a share of Series B Preferred Stock on each outstanding common share, with a record date of October 26, 2026. The preferred carries votes only on a proposed reverse stock split and related adjournment proposals, and any shares not present or voted at the relevant meeting are automatically redeemed, so the dividend is a mechanism tied to that vote rather than a cash or income payout.

Key points

  • Record date for the Series B Preferred Stock dividend is October 26, 2026; the certificate of designations became effective October 21, 2026
  • Each Series B share carries 1,000,000 votes, so each one-thousandth share carries 1,000 votes, voting only on a reverse stock split proposal and adjournment proposals
  • Series B holders receive no dividends and a liquidation preference of $0.0001 per share; shares are not convertible and have no stated maturity
