WaveDancer Announces Reverse Stock Split
August 09 2024 - 12:00PM
WaveDancer, Inc. (Nasdaq: WAVD) (“WaveDancer” or the
“Company”), announced today that it intends to effect a
reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio of one (1)
post-split share for every three (3) pre-split shares. The reverse
stock split will become effective at 12:01 p.m., New York time, on
Monday, August 12, 2024, and will begin trading on a split-adjusted
basis when the market opens on Tuesday, August 13, 2024. The new
CUSIP number for the common stock following the reverse stock split
will be 317970101. Additionally, in connection with the Agreement
and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 15, 2023, as amended, by
and between WaveDancer, Firefly Neuroscience, Inc. and FFN Merger
Sub, Inc., WaveDancer will change its name to Firefly Neuroscience,
Inc. prior to the consummation of the reverse stock split. Upon
market-effective date of the reverse stock split on August 13,
2024, the Company’s name will be Firefly Neuroscience, Inc. and the
Company’s common stock will trade under the symbol AIFF.
Pursuant to the Company’s registration statement
on Form S-4, WaveDancer’s stockholders granted the Company’s Board
of Directors (the “Board”) the discretion to effect a reverse stock
split of all of the outstanding shares of WaveDancer’s common stock
through an amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation at a ratio of not less than 1-for-1.5 and not more
than 1-for-20, with the exact ratio and timing to be determined by
the Board.
At the effective time of the reverse stock
split, every three (3) shares of WaveDancer’s issued and
outstanding common stock will be converted automatically into one
(1) issued and outstanding share of common stock without any change
in the par value per share or the number of authorized shares of
common stock. Stockholders holding shares through a brokerage
account will have their shares automatically adjusted to reflect
the 1-for-3 reverse stock split. It is not necessary for
stockholders holding shares of the Company’s common stock in
certificated form to exchange their existing stock certificates for
new stock certificates of the Company in connection with the
reverse stock split, although stockholders may do so if they
wish.
The reverse stock split will affect all
stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder’s
percentage interest in the Company’s equity, except to the extent
that the reverse stock split would result in a stockholder owning a
fractional share. All fractional shares issuable to the Company’s
stockholders as a result of the reverse stock split will be
aggregated and rounded up to the nearest whole share. The reverse
stock split will reduce the number of shares of WaveDancer’s common
stock outstanding by a factor of three (3) from 2,013,180 shares to
approximately 671,060 shares, subject to adjustment for the
rounding up of fractional shares (with the post-merger total number
of shares outstanding to be approximately 7,900,000). Proportional
adjustments will be made to the number of shares of WaveDancer’s
common stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of
WaveDancer’s equity awards, convertible preferred stock and
warrants, as well as the applicable exercise price or conversion
price. Stockholders with shares in brokerage accounts should direct
any questions concerning the reverse stock split to their broker;
all other stockholders may direct questions to the Company’s
transfer agent, Direct Transfer, LLC a subsidiary of Issuer Direct
Corporation, via email at Julie.Felix@issuerdirect.com or by
telephone at 919-744-2722.
