AmpliTech Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMPG, AMPGR, AMPGZ) announced that its previously listed warrants (Nasdaq: AMPGW) expired at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on February 19, 2026, in accordance with their original terms. Trading in the warrants ceased at the close of market on February 18, 2026, after which they were removed from listing on Nasdaq. Prior to expiration, there were 1,371,428 warrants outstanding, each entitling the holder to purchase one share of common stock at $7.00 per share. Any unexercised warrants became void and are of no further value, eliminating the company's obligation to reserve shares for potential conversion.
This expiration occurs automatically under the warrant agreement and does not require any action from warrant holders. The company emphasized that there is no impact on its common stock, Series A Right, or Series B Right, which continue to trade on Nasdaq under the symbols AMPG, AMPGR, and AMPGZ. By removing the overhang of unexercised warrants, AmpliTech reduces the risk of dilution for existing shareholders, which may be viewed positively by the market. The warrants' expiration also simplifies the company's capital structure and eliminates the need to maintain reserve shares for warrant conversion.

This announcement carries implications for investors, as the expiration of warrants removes a source of potential dilution that could have pressured the stock price. With 1.37 million shares no longer reserved for warrant conversion, the company's earnings per share calculations become more favorable. Moreover, the elimination of the warrant overhang may attract new investors seeking a clearer equity story. Analysts will likely monitor how this development affects trading volumes and price stability for AMPG shares and rights. The company's forward-looking statements caution that actual results may differ due to various risks, as detailed in SEC filings. Nonetheless, the warrant expiration marks a significant milestone in AmpliTech's capital management strategy.
