Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
The board of directors (“Board”)
of Datasea Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s authorized and
issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), at a ratio of 1-for-15 (the “Reverse
Stock Split”). The Reverse Stock Split will become legal effective as of 5:01 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on January 19, 2024 (the
“Legal Effective Date”), and the Common Stock will open for trading on The Nasdaq Stock Exchange (“NASDAQ”) on
a reverse split-adjusted basis on January 23, 2024, under the existing trading symbol “DTSS”.
Reason for the Reverse Stock Split.
The Company is effectuating
the Reverse Stock Split in order to raise the per share bid price of the Company’s Common Stock above $1.00 per share and bring
the Company back into compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The Company will have regained compliance once the Company’s
Common Stock trades at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days, at which time Nasdaq will provide the Company
with notice that it has regained compliance.
Effects of the Reverse Stock Split.
On the Legal Effective Date,
every fifteen (15) shares of the Common Stock issued and outstanding or held as treasury stock will be automatically reclassified into
one (1) new share of Common Stock. The total number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance will then be reduced by a corresponding
proportion from 375,000,000 shares to 25,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The par value per share of the Common Stock will remain unchanged
at $0.001 per share. The new CUSIP number for the Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split will be 238116305.
Each shareholder’s percentage
ownership interest in the Company and proportional voting power remains virtually unchanged as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, except
for minor changes and adjustments that will result from rounding fractional shares into whole shares. The rights and privileges of the
holders of shares of Common Stock will be substantially unaffected by the Reverse Stock Split. All options, warrants and convertible securities
of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split (to the extent they don’t provide otherwise) will be appropriately
adjusted by dividing the number of shares of Common Stock into which the options, warrants and convertible securities are exercisable
or convertible by 15, and multiplying the exercise or conversion price thereof by 15, as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
No fractional shares will
be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split will be rounded up to the
nearest whole share.
West Coast Stock Transfer,
Inc. is acting as transfer and exchange agent for the Reverse Stock Split. Registered shareholders who hold shares of Common Stock are
not required to take any action to receive post-Reverse Stock Split shares. Stockholders who hold their shares in brokerage accounts or
in “street name” will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split, subject to such broker’s
particular processes, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.
Nevada State Filing.
The Company filed a Certificate
of Change (the “Certificate”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on January 16, 2024, to effect the Reverse
Stock Split on January 19, 2024, in accordance with Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) Section 78.209. A copy of the Certificate
is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
No Stockholder Approval
Required.
Under Nevada law, because
the Reverse Stock Split was approved by the Board of the Company in accordance with NRS Section 78.207, no stockholder approval is required.
Pursuant to NRS Section 78.207, the Company may effectuate a Reverse Stock Split without stockholder approval if (i) both the number of
authorized shares of the Common Stock and the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock are proportionally reduced as
a result of the Reverse Stock Split; (ii) the Reverse Stock Split does not adversely affect any other class of stock of the Company; and
(iii) the Company does not pay money or issue scrip to stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share as a
result of the Reverse Stock Split. As described herein, the Reverse Stock Split complies with such requirements.
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
The information set forth
in Item 3.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5.03. A copy of the Certificate is
attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On January 18, 2024, the Company
issued a press release disclosing the Reverse Stock Split and the effects thereof. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit
99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 9.01. Financial Statement and Exhibits.
(d) Exhibits.

Datasea Announces 1-for-15 Reverse Stock Split
to Regain Compliance with Nasdaq Minimum Bid Requirement
Beijing, China – January 18, 2024 -
Datasea Inc., a Nevada corporation (NASDAQ: DTSS) (“Datasea” or the “Company”), which engages in the business
segments of U.S.-based intelligent acoustics and China-based 5G messaging technology, today announced that the Company’s Board of
Directors has approved a reverse stock split of its authorized and issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per
share (the “Common Stock”), at a ratio of 1-for-15. The Company is effecting the reverse split to regain compliance with the
$1.00 minimum bid price required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The reverse
stock split does not require the approval of the Company’s stockholders, as it was approved in accordance with Nevada Revised Statutes
Section 78.207.
The reverse stock split is expected to become
effective on January 19, 2024 (the “Effective Date”), and the shares are expected to begin trading on the split-adjusted basis
on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange (“Nasdaq”) under the Company’s existing trading symbol “DTSS” at the market open
on January 23, 2024.
On the Effective Date, every 15 issued and outstanding
shares of the Company’s Common Stock will be converted automatically into one share of the Company’s Common Stock without
any change in the par value per share. The total number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance will then be reduced by a corresponding
proportion from 375,000,000 shares to 25,000,000 shares of Common Stock.
Immediately after the reverse stock split, each
stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company and proportional voting power will remain unchanged, except for minor changes
and adjustments that will result from the rounding up of any fractional shares to the next whole number of shares. The rights and privileges
of the holders of shares of Common Stock will be substantially unaffected by the reverse stock split.
West Coast Stock Transfer, Inc. is acting as transfer
and exchange agent for the reverse stock split. Registered shareholders who hold shares of Common Stock are not required to take any action
to receive post-reverse stock split shares. Stockholders who hold their shares in brokerage accounts or in “street name” will
have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, subject to each broker’s particular processes, and will
not be required to take any action in connection with the reverse stock split.
