SAN DIEGO, CA, Jan. 30, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire -- Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc. (“Sigyn” or the “Company”) (OTCQB: SIGY), a development-stage medical technology company, today announced that a 1-for-40 reverse split of its common stock will be implemented tomorrow, January 31, 2024. As a result, the Company’s common stock will trade on a post-split basis at the beginning of the trading day on January 31st under its existing trading symbol “SIGY.” The CUSIP number for the common stock following the reverse stock split will be 82674U205.
The reverse stock split is intended to increase the market price per share of the Company’s common stock to gain compliance with the minimum bid listing requirement of The Nasdaq Capital Market in connection with the Company’s pending application for listing. Proportionate adjustments will be made to the conversion and exercise prices of the company’s warrants, restricted stock unit awards, stock options and to the number of shares issued and issuable under the Company’s equity incentive plans.
The proposed listing application has been submitted to Nasdaq, but it has not yet been approved. There can be no assurance that the listing application will be approved and there remain additional requirements which must be satisfied prior to any approval decision.
Information for Stockholders
Upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, each forty shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock will be automatically combined and converted into one issued and outstanding share of common stock. The reverse stock split will affect all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder’s relative interest in the Company’s equity, except to the extent that the reverse stock split would have resulted in a stockholder owning a fractional share. Holders of common stock otherwise entitled to a fractional share as a result of the reverse stock split will automatically be entitled to receive an additional fraction of a share of common stock to round up to the next whole share. The reverse stock split will not change the par value of the common stock or modify the rights or preferences of the common stock. The Company’s transfer agent, VStock Transfer, LLC, will maintain the book-entry records for the Company’s common stock. Registered stockholders holding pre-split shares of the Company’s common stock electronically in book-entry form are not required to take any action to receive post-split shares. Stockholders owning shares via a broker, bank, trust or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, subject to such broker’s particular processes, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the reverse stock split.
