You don't have your facts straight. A stock split is not contingent on shareholder approval. It does not require it as long as the authorized share count is changed in the same ratio as the split.
However, raising the number of authorized shares does require shareholder approval. The notice says they want to do that no matter what happens. So, yes, there is new information there. The company has just said they will dilute shareholders further and they do not anticipate being able to support themselves without taking the money directly from shareholders.
If you consider that mundane, so be it. The share price would be considered mundane and will continu so under the current regime.
