Insights

EpicQuest greatly expands authorized ordinary shares, increasing flexibility for future equity actions.

EpicQuest Education Group International Limited has raised its authorized ordinary share capacity from 31,500,000 to 970,000,000 ordinary shares, while keeping authorized preferred shares at 10,000,000. This is a legal-capacity change, not an immediate share issuance.

The amendment was approved by the Board of Directors on September 6, 2025 and filed in the British Virgin Islands on September 22, 2025. The move permits a much larger volume of potential future equity transactions, which could include offerings, share-based compensation, or other corporate purposes, depending on later decisions.

The amended and restated memorandum and articles are also incorporated by reference into existing S-8 and F-3 registration statements, linking this expanded authorization to current registration frameworks. Future company disclosures will determine how much of this new authorized capacity is actually used and under what terms.
