SCHEDULE 13D




Comment for Type of Reporting Person:
(1) This Schedule 13D relates to the securities of WISeQey Corp. ("WISeQey" or the "Issuer"), as successor to WISeKey International Holding AG ("WISeKey"). Prior to the completion of the cross-border merger (the "Merger") on October 1, 2026, this Schedule 13D related to the following classes of securities of WISeKey: Class B ordinary shares ("Class B Shares"), nominal value CHF 0.10 per share (represented in part by American Depositary Shares), and Class A ordinary shares, nominal value CHF 0.01 per share ("Class A Shares"). Following the Merger, the Reporting Person's WISeKey Class B Shares were exchanged for ordinary shares of WISeQey ("WISeQey Ordinary Shares") and the Reporting Person's WISeKey Class A Shares were exchanged for Class F Shares of WISeQey ("WISeQey Class F Shares"). Due to EDGAR structured data (XML) filing requirements effective for Schedule 13D filings, the cover page's numeric boxes (Rows 7 through 13) are limited to a single class of security and relate solely to the WISeQey Ordinary Shares . The amount of shares reported above relate to the WISeQey Ordinary Shares and include WISeQey Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the WISeQey Class F Shares. Every ten (10) WISeQey Class F Shares are convertible at any time, at the option of the holder, into one WISeQey Ordinary Share. This comment shall serve as full disclosure of the Reporting Person's beneficial ownership of the WISeQey Class F Shares . As of the date hereof, the Reporting Person has sole voting power and sole dispositive power over 181,959 WISeQey Class F Shares consisting of (i) 7,419 WISeQey Class F Shares (representing the exchange of 7,419 WISeKey Class A Shares) and (ii) options to purchase up to 174,540 WISeQey Class F Shares (representing the conversion of options to purchase 174,540 WISeKey Class A Shares) that are exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof, and no shared voting or dispositive power over any WISeQey Class F Shares. The CUSIP listed on the cover page applies to the WISeQey Ordinary Shares. (2) The Reporting Person's 105,983 WISeQey Ordinary Shares consists of (i) 8,319 WISeQey Ordinary Shares (representing the exchange of 8,319 WISeKey Class B Shares), (ii) options to purchase up to 79,469 WISeQey Ordinary Shares (representing the conversion of options to purchase 79,469 WISeKey Class B Shares) that are exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof, (iii) 7,419 WISeQey Class F Shares (representing the exchange of 7,419 WISeKey Class A Shares) and (iv) options to purchase up to 174,540 WISeQey Class F Shares (representing the conversion of options to purchase 174,540 WISeKey Class A Shares) that are exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof, and no shared voting or dispositive power over any WISeQey Class F Shares. (3) Prior to the Merger, on June 30, 2023, WISeKey effected a reverse stock split with a different consolidation ratio applied to Class A Shares and Class B Shares (1-for-25 for Class A Shares and 1-for-50 for Class B Shares). (4) Prior to the Merger, on June 22, 2022, WISeKey effected a 1-for-2 reverse split of its American Depositary Shares ("ADSs"), changing the ADS ratio from one ADS representing 5 Class B Shares to one ADS representing 10 Class B Shares. On July 5, 2023, in connection with a 50-for-1 reverse stock split of WISeKey's Class B Shares, WISeKey effected a 1-for-2.5 reverse split of its ADSs. In connection with the Merger, the WISeKey ADS program was terminated and each WISeKey ADS was exchanged for one-half of one WISeQey Ordinary Share.
