**Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.**

As previously reported, on February 12, 2025 at the annual meeting of stockholders, the stockholders of SideChannel, Inc. (the "Company") approved and adopted an amendment to the Company's certificate of incorporation, as amended (the "Certificate of Incorporation"), to effectuate a reverse stock split of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock, at a ratio of no less than 1-for-2 and no more than 1-for-200, with such ratio to be determined by the Company's board of directors (the "Board") in its sole discretion. On August 21, 2025, the Board approved a reverse stock split at a ratio of 1-for-52 (the "Reverse Split"). On January 12, 2026, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Amendment") with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effectuate the Reverse Split. The Certificate of Amendment will be effective for state law purposes at 4:00 p.m. ET on January 22, 2026, after the close of trading on the OTCQB, such that the Company's common stock is expected to begin trading on a post-Reverse Split basis at market open on January 23, 2026.

The foregoing description 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, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

On January 16, 2026, the Company filed a certificate of correction to the Certificate of Amendment (the "Certificate of Correction") to correct a scrivener's error in the Certificate of Amendment. The Certificate of Amendment indicated that any fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Split would be rounded "to the nearest whole share" of common stock, rather than providing that any fractional shares would be rounded "up to the nearest whole share" of common stock, as the Company intended.

Accordingly, at 4:00 p.m. ET on January 22, 2026, after the close of trading on the OTCQB, each 52 shares of issued and outstanding common stock (collectively, the "Pre-Split Common Stock") will automatically, and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be reclassified such that each 52 shares of Pre-Split Common Stock will become one share of common stock, with any resulting fractional shares common stock being rounded up to the nearest whole share of common stock. The Company's common stock is expected to begin trading on a post-Reverse Split basis at market open on January 23, 2026. The Reverse Split will not affect the authorized number of shares of common stock or the par value of the common stock.

The foregoing description of the Certificate of Correction does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Correction, which is filed as Exhibit 3.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
