Allbirds Announces 1-For-20 Reverse Stock Split
August 30 2024 - 9:00AM
Allbirds, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIRD), a global lifestyle brand that
innovates with sustainable materials to make better products in a
better way, today announced that it will proceed with a 1-for-20
reverse stock split (“Reverse Stock Split”) of its outstanding
shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock
(collectively, the “Common Stock”) following approval by its Board
of Directors. The 1-for-20 ratio is within the range approved by
stockholders at a special meeting of BIRD stockholders held on
August 13, 2024.
The Reverse Stock Split is intended to bring the
Company into compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for
continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market. The Reverse
Stock Split is expected to become effective at 5 p.m. Eastern
Daylight Time on September 4, 2024 and the Company’s Class A Common
Stock is expected to begin trading on a post-split basis at the
market open on September 5, 2024 under the same symbol (BIRD) with
the new CUSIP number 01675A208.
When the Reverse Stock Split is effective, every
20 shares of Allbirds Common Stock issued and outstanding will be
combined automatically into 1 share of Common Stock. The Reverse
Stock Split will apply equally to all outstanding shares of Common
Stock, and each stockholder will hold the same percentage of Common
Stock outstanding immediately following the Reverse Stock Split,
except for adjustments that may result from the treatment of
fractional shares. No fractional shares will be issued in
connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, holders of Common
Stock will receive a cash payment (without interest) in lieu of any
fractional shares. Additionally, all equity awards outstanding
immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split will be
proportionately adjusted.
Computershare Inc. is acting as the exchange
agent and transfer agent for the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders
holding their shares electronically in book-entry form are not
required to take any action to receive post-split shares. The
Company does not have any outstanding certificated shares.
Stockholders owning shares through a bank, broker or other nominee
will have their positions adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock
Split and will receive payment for any fractional shares in
accordance with their respective bank’s, broker’s, or nominee’s
particular processes.
Additional information about the Reverse Stock
Split can be found in Allbirds’ definitive proxy statement (Form
DEF 14A) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(the “SEC”) on June 28, 2024.
