Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.
Market Information
Our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Stock
Market LLC and commenced trading on April 24, 2025, under the symbol “SSII.” Prior to this listing, our common stock was
quoted on the OTC Pink tier of the over-the-counter market maintained by OTC Markets Group, Inc., where trading was sporadic and extremely
limited.
The listing of our common stock on Nasdaq represents
a transition to a national securities exchange, which we believe enhances the visibility of our securities and provides greater access
to institutional and retail investors. Notwithstanding our Nasdaq listing, there can be no assurance that an active, orderly, or liquid
trading market for our common stock will be sustained, or that the market price of our common stock will not experience significant volatility.
Holders of our Common Stock
As of the date of this Annual Report, we had 194,356,696 shares of
common stock issued and outstanding (not including 5,774,839 shares issuable in connection with the private placement completed on March
6, 2026 – See “ Item1. Business – Recent Development ”) and 303 holders of record of our common stock. One
of these holders is CEDE and Company, which is the mechanism used for brokerage firms to hold securities in book entry form on behalf
of their clients and as of the date of this Annual Report, they held approximately 42,977,899 shares of common stock for these shareholders.
Dividends
The
payment by us of dividends, if any, in the future rests within the discretion of our board of directors and will depend, among other things,
upon our earnings, capital requirements and financial condition, as well as other relevant factors. We have not paid any dividends since
our inception and we do not intend to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but intend to retain all earnings, if any, for
use in our business. Any future dividends will be subject to the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon, among
other things, our earnings (if any), operating results, financial condition and capital requirements, general business conditions and
other pertinent facts. Under its bank overdraft facility with HDFC Bank, SSI–India is prohibited from declaring and paying dividends,
which effectively makes us, as a parent holding company, unable to declare and pay dividends as well.
