Item 5.03. Amendment to Articles of Incorporation.

Effective March 18, 2022, Communications Systems, Inc. (the "Company") amended its articles of incorporation to implement a 1-for-4 reverse stock split.

As a result of the reverse stock split, at 5:00 p.m. Central Time on March 18, 2022, every four shares of common stock then issued and outstanding automatically were combined into one share of common stock, with no change in the $0.05 par value per share. No fractional shares will be outstanding following the reverse stock split. The articles of amendment provide that no fractional shares will be issued; the Company will settle any fractional share resulting from the reverse stock split in cash.

Through the articles of amendment, the total number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance was reduced to 7,500,000 in proportion to the reverse stock split. The articles of amendment did not change the authorized number of shares of preferred stock, $1.00 par value, which remains at 3,000,000. The text of the articles of amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

The Company's common stock will begin trading on a post-split basis when the market opens on March 21, 2022.
