ASNS Wins Caltrans Contract

Last Wednesday, Actelis shares skyrocketed over 250% following the announcement of a new contract with the California Department of Transportation for a highway modernization project in San Mateo County.

The order involves deploying MetaLight hybrid fiber-copper networking gear to support traffic signal and monitoring systems within a broader $120 million initiative.

Special Shareholder Meeting Set For April 13 Vote

After a brief midweek rally, shares plunged more than 33% in the following session on March 5. This sharp decline was triggered by a definitive proxy statement filed by the company after Wednesday’s close.

The filing outlined plans for a special shareholder meeting on April 13 to approve the issuance of additional common shares through an equity line of credit with White Lion Capital, alongside a proposed reverse stock split in a range of 1-for-10 to 1-for-25.

Management indicated these measures are necessary to support growth and regain Nasdaq compliance.
