In direct correlation with DFNN’s robust profit and EBITDA performance, DFNN’s Board of Directors approved the company's equity restructuring on September 5, 2022. The restructure, subject to the approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission, is intended to reflect the actual financial condition of the company thereby significantly reducing its deficit in its equity account as of December 31, 2021 by offsetting its additional paid in capital against the deficit. This exercise will not involve a change in the par value nor will it involve the infusion of any additional paid in capital to the company and will not result in any change in the number of issued, outstanding, and listed shares of the company.

The equity restructuring is intended to hasten and pave the way for future dividend declarations by the Company.
