Item 3.03 | Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

To the extent required by Item 3.03 of Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Form 8-K”), the information contained in Item 5.03 of this Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.03 | Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.

On February 6, 2023, Digital Ally, Inc. (the “Company”), acting pursuant to authority received at the annual meeting of its stockholders on December 7, 2022, filed a certificate of amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to its articles of incorporation, as amended (the “Articles of Incorporation”), to effect a one-for-twenty reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of all of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), effective as of the time of filing (the “Effective Time”). The Company anticipates that the Common Stock will begin trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market on a split-adjusted basis at the start of trading on February 8, 2023.

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every twenty (20) shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time have been converted into one (1) share of Common Stock (the “New Common Stock”). The New Common Stock has a new CUSIP number of 25382T200. The Reverse Stock Split does not affect the total number of shares of capital stock, including the Common Stock, that the Company is authorized to issue, or the par value of the Common Stock, which shall remain as set forth pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation. No fractional shares of New Common Stock will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split, all of which shares of New Common Stock shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number of such shares.

The Company’s outstanding warrants and equity awards will be adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, as required by the terms of such warrants and equity awards.

Securities Transfer Corporation, the Company’s transfer agent, will send instructions to stockholders of record who hold stock certificates regarding the exchange of certificates for New Common Stock. Stockholders who hold their shares of Common Stock in book-entry form or in brokerage accounts or “street name” are not required to take any action to effect the exchange of their shares of Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split.

The foregoing summary of the Certificate of Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 8-K and Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and as defined in the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that express the Company’s intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions or any other statements related to the Company’s future activities, or future events or conditions, which can be identified by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “aims,” “potential,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” believes,” “estimates,” “continue,” “likely to,” and other similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These statements are not historical facts and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company’s business based, in part, on assumptions made by its management. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, including, among other things, the date that trading of the New Common Stock will begin on a split-adjusted basis, the Company’s ability to regain compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Standards and maintain the listing of its securities on Nasdaq, which may cause the Company’s actual results, performance and achievements to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including those risks that may be included in the periodic reports and other filings that the Company files from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 8-K, except as required by applicable law.

Item 8.01 | Other Information.

On February 7, 2023, the Company issued a press release with respect to the Reverse Stock Split. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
