Business Wire
Shares Will Begin Trading on a
Split-Adjusted Basis on August 26, 2024
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-40, as approved by the Company’s stockholders at its 2023
annual meeting and the Company’s board of directors. The reverse
stock split will become effective at 5:00 PM Eastern Time on August
23, 2024, 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 August 26, 2024 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 40 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 674434303 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 28,242,000 shares to approximately 710,000 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 or conversion price and the number of shares
issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding
options, warrants and shares of preferred stock, as applicable.
Information for Stockholders
Stockholders holding their shares in book-entry form with the
Company’s transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, 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 October 30,
2023.
