Transactions End Further Preferred Dividend Requirements


SUISUN, CA--(Marketwired - Jan 28, 2016) -   WPCS International Incorporated (NASDAQ: WPCS), which specializes in low voltage communications and security contracting services, today announced the conversion of all remaining 1,359 Series G-1 preferred shares into 102,492 shares of the Company's common stock on January 25, 2016.

Consequently, all of the Company's previously issued Series F, F-1, G and G-1 preferred shares have now been converted into common stock. These four series of preferred shares had carried an 8% dividend and a 26% three-year make-whole dividend. In addition, all such dividends have also now been fully converted into common stock. As a result, the Company will no longer have any dividend payable liability on its balance sheet related to these preferred shares.

According to Sebastian Giordano, Interim CEO of WPCS, "This is yet another positive step in improving our income statement and balance sheet as there are no longer any preferred shares outstanding that accrue dividends or have make-whole dividend provisions. The remaining 2,638 Series H and 8,119 Series H-1 convertible preferred shares have no dividends attached to them."
