INSPIRE VETERINARY PARTNERS, INC. 8-K

What Happened
Inspire Veterinary Partners, Inc. (IVP) filed a Form 8-K on January 13, 2026, disclosing that it filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State (dated January 9, 2026). The amendment increases the number of authorized shares of Class A common stock from 100,000,000 to 700,000,000 shares and became effective upon filing. The amendment was approved by the board of directors and the requisite stockholder vote.

Key Details

• Authorized Class A common stock increased from 100,000,000 to 700,000,000 shares (an increase of 600,000,000 shares).
• The number of authorized Class B common shares and preferred stock were not changed.
• Certificate of Amendment dated January 9, 2026; Form 8-K filed January 13, 2026.
• The Certificate of Amendment is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to the 8-K.

Why It Matters
Increasing authorized shares does not itself issue new shares or change the current outstanding share count, but it gives the company the legal capacity to issue up to 600 million additional Class A shares in the future. That flexibility can be used for fundraising, acquisitions, equity compensation, or other corporate purposes; any actual issuance would be disclosed separately and could affect ownership percentages and per-share metrics. Investors should note the change and watch for future filings that would detail any new share issuances or related transactions.
