Tonix Pharmaceuticals Announces 1-for-100 Reverse Stock Split
February 03 2025 - 7:05AM
Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP) (Tonix or the
Company), a fully-integrated biopharmaceutical company with
marketed products and a pipeline of development candidates, today
announced that it will effect a 1-for-100 reverse stock split of
its outstanding common stock. The reverse stock split will be
effective for trading purposes as of the commencement of trading on
February 5, 2025.
The reverse stock split is intended to increase
the per share trading price of Tonix’s common stock to satisfy the
$1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The
NASDAQ Capital Market (Rule 5550(a)(1)). Tonix’s common stock will
continue to trade on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol
“TNXP” and under a new CUSIP number, 890260839. As a result of the
reverse stock split, every one hundred pre-split shares of common
stock outstanding will become one share of common stock. The
reverse split will also apply to common stock issuable upon the
exercise of Tonix’s outstanding warrants and stock options. The
reverse stock split will not proportionately reduce the number of
shares of authorized common stock, as permitted under Nevada law,
as shareholder approval for the reverse stock split was obtained on
October 30, 2024.
Tonix’s transfer agent, VStock Transfer LLC,
which is also acting as the exchange agent for the reverse split,
will provide instructions to shareholders regarding the process for
exchanging 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 shareholders will receive
cash in lieu of fractional shares.
