Pluri Inc. Announces 1-for-8 Reverse Share Split
March 27 2024 - 7:00AM
Pluri Inc. (Nasdaq: PLUR) (TASE: PLUR) ("Pluri" or the “Company"),
a leading biotechnology company that transforms cells into
solutions, today announced that a reverse share split of the
Company’s issued and outstanding common shares, par value $0.00001
per share (the “Common Shares”) at a ratio of 1-for-8 is expected
to be implemented at market open on April 1, 2024. The Company's
Common Shares will begin trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on a
post-split basis at the market open on April 1, 2024, under
the Company's existing trading symbol "PLUR", but will trade under
a new CUSIP Number, 72942G203.
After giving effect to the reverse share split
of the Company’s Common Shares, each eight (8) Common Shares will
be combined into one Common Share, such that the Company’s
41,816,959 Common Shares outstanding will be reduced to
approximately 5,227,120 Common Shares outstanding (the “Reverse
Share Split”). In addition, the authorized capital shares of the
Company are being reduced from 300,000,000 Common Shares to
37,500,000 Common Shares as a result of the Reverse Share Split and
pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) Section 78.207. No
fractional shares will be issued as a result of the reverse split
as any fractional shares resulting from the reverse split will be
rounded up to the nearest whole share on a per shareholder
basis.
The Board of Directors of the Company approved
the action in accordance with Nevada law (NRS Section 78.207). No
additional Company or shareholder approval is required because both
the number of authorized Common Shares and the number of
outstanding Common Shares will be proportionally reduced as a
result of the Reverse Share Split, the Reverse Share Split will not
adversely affect any other class of shares of the Company and the
Company will not pay money or issue scrip to shareholders who would
otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of
the reverse split.
The reverse split will not impact any
shareholder's percentage ownership of Pluri or voting power, except
for minimal effects resulting from the treatment of fractional
shares.
All options, unvested shares of restricted
stock, restricted stock units and warrants of the Company
outstanding prior to the split will be appropriately adjusted.
Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, will act as the
exchange agent for the reverse split. Please contact Equiniti Trust
Company, LLC for further information at (718) 921-8200.
