“We are pleased to announce this reverse stock split as we believe it is in the best interest of our shareholders and will help position SuperCom to attract fundamental institutional investors as we continue on our growth trajectory. The perceived overhang of trading below certain Nasdaq trading price thresholds has been a hindrance in our ability to attract larger investors, and we are happy to move forward clear of this hurdle,” stated Ordan Trabelsi, President and CEO of SuperCom.
“The reverse stock split changes the price per share and number of shares outstanding, but has no effect on the operations of our company nor our overall size and growth potential. It is however key in maintaining our Nasdaq listing and our ability to meet certain funds’ investment criteria. We are excited to move forward stronger in conjunction with our significant recent progress reflected also through our numerous new project wins such as the $33 million national EM project in Romania, as well as our over 100% revenue growth and return to being EBITDA positive in our reported third quarter 2022 financial results,” concluded Ordan.
At the commencement of trading on November 23, every ten shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares will be automatically converted into one issued and outstanding ordinary share, and the par value per share of ordinary shares will be multiplied by ten(10).
