PEGY Pineapple Energy Inc

Pineapple Energy Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: PEGY) announced today that effective at 12:01 a.m. Central Time on October 17, 2024, the Company will implement a 1-for-50 reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock, which is within the range approved by stockholders at the annual meeting of the Company's shareholders held on July 19, 2024. The Company’s common stock will continue to trade under the symbol “PEGY” and it is expected to open for trading on Nasdaq on October 17, 2024 on a post-split basis. The new CUSIP number for the common stock following the reverse stock split will be 72303P404.

The reverse stock split is primarily intended to increase the market price per share of the Company’s common stock to regain compliance with the minimum bid price required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.

Upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, every 50 shares of issued and outstanding Company common stock at the close of business on October 16, 2024 will be automatically combined into one issued and outstanding share of common stock, with no change in par value per share. Proportionate adjustments will be made to the conversion and exercise prices of the Company’s outstanding stock purchase warrants, stock options, convertible notes and to the number of shares issued and issuable under the Company’s equity incentive plans

The reverse stock split proportionally reduces the number of shares of the Company’s authorized common stock from 133,333,333 to 2,666,667. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the reverse stock split. Any fractional shares that would have resulted from the reverse stock split will be settled in cash. The reverse stock split will affect all common shareholders uniformly and will not alter any shareholder’s percentage interest in the Company’s common stock, except to the extent that the reverse stock split results in some shareholders experiencing an adjustment of a fractional share as described above.

Shareholders holding their shares electronically in book-entry form are not required to take any action to receive the post-split shares. Shareholders holding physical share certificates will receive information from EQ Shareowner Services, the Company’s transfer agent, regarding the process for exchanging their shares of common stock. Shareholders with questions may contact the Company’s transfer agent by calling 800-401-1957.
