Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

On February 19, 2026, the Company obtained written consent from the holder of its Series E Preferred Stock, representing approximately 67.7% of the total voting power, to approve a strategic capital realignment. This realignment includes an increase in authorized common shares and a pending 1-for-100 reverse stock split. The increase in authorized shares provides the Company with additional liquidity to meet contractual obligations but may result in significant future dilution for existing common shareholders. The reverse stock split has been submitted to FINRA for processing and remains pending review.

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On February 19, 2026, the Board of Directors and a majority of the Company's voting power approved a Certificate of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized common shares from 27,500,000,000 to 31,300,000,000. In accordance with Rule 14c-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company will not file the Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of Nevada until at least 20 calendar days after the Definitive Information Statement has been distributed to shareholders of record. The Company intends to withdraw this authorized share expansion if the pending reverse stock split is implemented prior to the effective date of this increase.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On February 23, 2026, the Company issued a press release titled "AITX Announces Strategic Capital Realignment to Support Long Term Objectives". The press release notes management's target of attaining positive cash flow by May 2026.
