Stellar Biotechnologies Announces One-for-Seven Reverse Split
LOS ANGELES, April 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Stellar Biotechnologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: SBOT), a leading manufacturer of a key protein utilized in immunotherapy development pipelines, today is announcing a one-for-seven reverse share split of its common shares. The company anticipates that the reverse share split will become effective at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on May 4, 2018, and the company's common shares will trade on a post-split basis under the company's existing trading symbol "SBOT," at the market open on May 7, 2018. The new CUSIP number for the company's common shares will be 85855A302.
At the effective time of the reverse share split, every seven shares of Stellar Biotechnologies common shares will be combined into one common share of Stellar Biotechnologies. The reverse share split, known as a share consolidation under applicable British Columbia law, does not affect any shareholder's ownership percentage of the company's common shares or proportional voting power, except to the extent that the share consolidation would result in any fractional shares. No fractional shares will be issued and any fraction will be rounded to the nearest whole share in accordance with the British Columbia Business Corporations Act.
Information for Shareholders
Shareholders owning pre-split shares via a broker, bank or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the share consolidation, subject to such broker's particular processes, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the share consolidation. Similarly, registered shareholders holding shares electronically in book-entry form do not need to take any action. Stellar's transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc., will instruct any shareholders with paper certificates on the exchange process. Proportionate adjustments will be made to the exercise prices of the company's outstanding share options and warrants and to the number of shares issued and issuable under the company's existing incentive compensation plan.
