The filings also record governance and compensation matters, including amendments to the 2022 Incentive Equity Plan, restricted stock unit grants and reliance on Irish home-country corporate governance practices.

SMX (Security Matters) Public Limited Company is implementing a 20-for-1 reverse stock split of its ordinary shares, effective for Nasdaq trading on May 11, 2026 under the existing symbol “SMX”. The company is also amending a prior report so this information is incorporated into its existing Form F-3 and Form S-8 registration statements.
The reverse split combines every 20 ordinary shares into 1 share, reducing outstanding ordinary shares from about 12 million to approximately 614,000, and adjusts the nominal value per share accordingly. All outstanding options, warrants and other convertible securities, including Nasdaq-listed warrants “SMXWW”, will be proportionately adjusted.
No fractional shares will be issued; instead, fractional entitlements will be aggregated and, where possible, sold in the market, with holders receiving cash for their portion. Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company will act as exchange agent, while shareholders holding through brokers will see automatic adjustments in their accounts.

SMX (Security Matters) PLC is warning that it has carried out numerous reverse stock splits and may implement additional reverse stock splits through the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 or later without further shareholder approval under Irish law.
The company states that past reverse splits have reduced share liquidity, increased the number of small “odd lot” holders and, in some cases, coincided with declines in its share price. It notes that future reverse splits may again hurt liquidity and market value, and acknowledges the risk that its history of multiple reverse splits could prompt Nasdaq to issue a deficiency notice or even delist the stock, which would materially harm its ability to raise capital and the value of existing holdings.

SMX (Security Matters) PLC has launched its Digital Material Passport Platform (DMPP), a system that links physical materials to secure digital records. Using molecular markers tied to a registry, the platform is designed to support verified tokenisation of real-world assets, end-to-end traceability, audit-grade data integrity, fraud prevention, and lifecycle tracking across multiple reuse loops.
During April 2026, SMX is giving exclusive access to existing clients and partners to test the platform, onboard materials, and validate use cases. From May 4, 2026, SMX expects to open bookings for new clients across industries such as plastics, metals, and other materials. The company sees this as a step toward making verified materials tradable financial assets and positioning itself as an infrastructure layer for real-world asset markets.
