Kaixin Holdings to Implement Share Consolidation

BEIJING, March 11, 2026 — Kaixin Holdings (“Kaixin” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: KXIN) announced its plan to implement a 1-for-15 share consolidation of its ordinary shares, which currently have a par value of $1.35 each. Following the consolidation, the par value per share will be $20.25. This “Share Consolidation” is scheduled to become effective on March 13, 2026. The Company anticipates that its class A ordinary shares will commence trading on a post-consolidation basis at the market opening on March 13, 2026. From that date, Kaixin’s class A ordinary shares will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the existing symbol “KXIN,” but with a new CUSIP number, G5223X175.

As a direct consequence of the Share Consolidation, every fifteen (15) of the Company’s ordinary shares will be automatically converted into one (1) ordinary share. Outstanding warrants and other equity rights will undergo proportional adjustments to reflect the Share Consolidation. No fractional shares will be issued as part of this consolidation. Should a shareholder otherwise be entitled to a fractional share, the number of shares they receive will be rounded up to one full ordinary share instead of the fractional amount.

Transhare Corporation, which serves as both the Company’s transfer agent and the exchange agent for the Share Consolidation, will issue instructions to shareholders of record who possess physical stock certificates regarding the process for exchanging their old certificates for new ones, should they choose to do so. Shareholders holding their shares through brokerage accounts or in “street name” are not required to take any action to facilitate the exchange of their shares.
