announced today, on February 13, 2025, the Company’s board of
directors (the “Board of Directors”) approved to amend and restate
the Company’s memorandum and articles of association, as amended,
to change the maximum number of shares the Company is authorized to
issue to an unlimited number of ordinary shares of no par value
each and an unlimited number of preferred shares of no par value
each (the “Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles”). The
Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles became effective on
February 17, 2025 upon the filing with the Registrar of Corporate

On February 13, 2025, the Board of Directors
also approved to effect a share consolidation of the Company’s
ordinary shares and preferred shares at the ratio of
one-for-fifteen. The share consolidation will become effective with
NASDAQ (“Nasdaq”) and in the marketplace on March 10, 2025.
The objective of the share consolidation is to
enable the Company to regain compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace
Rule 5550(a)(2) and maintain its listing on Nasdaq.
Beginning with the opening of trading on March
10, 2025, the Company’s ordinary shares will trade on the Nasdaq
Capital Market on a split-adjusted basis, under the same symbol
“ABTS” but under a new CUSIP Number, G6S34K113.
As a result of the share consolidation, each
fifteen issued and outstanding ordinary shares and preferred shares
will automatically combine and convert to one issued and
outstanding ordinary share and preferred share, respectively,
without any action on the part of the shareholders. No fractional
shares will be issued to any shareholders in connection with the
share consolidation, and such fractional shares will be redeemed by
the Company.
The share consolidation will reduce the numbers
of ordinary shares and preferred shares issued and outstanding from
35,554,677 and 5,000,000, respectively, to approximately 2,370,300
ordinary shares and 333,333 preferred shares, respectively (subject
to the redemption of the fractional shares at the closing price of
the ordinary shares on March 10, 2025). The number of ordinary
shares and the number of preferred shares that the Company is
authorized to issue remain to be unlimited.
