Business Wire
Shares Will Begin Trading on a
Split-Adjusted Basis on January 4, 2023
Oblong, Inc. (Nasdaq: OBLG) (“Oblong” or the “Company”), the
award-winning maker of multi-stream collaboration solutions,
announced today that it has filed an amendment to its certificate
of incorporation that will effect a reverse stock split of the
Company's issued and outstanding shares of common stock by a ratio
of 1-for-15, as approved by the Company’s stockholders at its
annual meeting and the Company’s board of directors. The reverse
stock split will become effective at 5:00 PM Eastern Time on
January 3, 2023, and the Company's shares of common stock will
begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on the Nasdaq Capital
Market at the commencement of trading on January 4, 2023 under the
Company's existing trading symbol “OBLG.”
The reverse stock split is intended to increase the per share
trading value of the Company’s common stock to satisfy the Nasdaq
Capital Market’s continued listing standards. The reverse stock
split will be effected simultaneously for all outstanding shares of
the Company’s common stock, and will affect all of the Company’s
stockholders uniformly. At the Effective Time, every 15 issued and
outstanding shares of common stock will be converted into one share
of common stock. The Company’s common stock has been assigned a new
CUSIP number of 674434204 in connection with the reverse stock
split. The reverse stock split will not affect any stockholder’s
percentage ownership interest in the Company, except to the extent
that it results in any of the Company’s stockholders owning a
fractional share, as any resulting fractional share will be rounded
up to the nearest whole share. The reverse stock split will reduce
the number of shares of the Company’s common stock from
approximately 30,816,048 shares to approximately 2,055,000 shares.
The reverse stock split will not affect the number of authorized
shares of the Company’s common stock or the par value of a share of
common stock. Proportionate adjustments will be made to the per
share exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon the
exercise or conversion of all outstanding options and warrants.
Information for Stockholders
Stockholders holding their shares in book-entry form with the
Company’s transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust
Company, LLC, or in brokerage accounts, do not need to take any
action in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders
holding shares of the Company’s common stock with a bank, broker or
other nominee are encouraged to contact their bank, broker or other
nominee with any questions regarding their holdings. The Company’s
transfer agent is also acting as the exchange agent for the reverse
stock split, and will provide instructions to any stockholders
holding certificated shares regarding the process for exchanging
their share certificates.
Any fractional shares of common stock resulting from the reverse
stock split will be rounded up to the nearest whole post-split
share and no stockholders will receive cash in lieu of fractional
shares.
Additional information regarding the reverse stock split is
available in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 28,
2022 and the Current Report on Form 8-K filed today with the
SEC.
