Wish Announces 1-for-30 Reverse Stock Split
SAN FRANCISCO, April 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ContextLogic Inc. (d/b/a Wish or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: WISH), one of the world’s largest mobile ecommerce platforms, announced that today, April 11, 2023, effective at 1:01 pm Pacific Time (4:01 pm Eastern Time), the Company will effectuate a 1-for-30 reverse split of its Class A common stock (“common stock”). The common stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis when the market opens on April 12, 2023 under its current trading symbol “WISH”. The CUSIP number for the common stock following the reverse stock split will be 21077C 305. The reverse stock split is intended to enable the Company to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Select Market. The reverse stock split was previously approved by Wish stockholders at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on April 10, 2023, with the final ratio determined by the Company’s Board of Directors.
The Company filed an amendment to its certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware on April 11, 2023. The reverse stock split will not reduce the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock, which will remain at 3,000,000,000, and will not change the par value of the common stock, which will remain at $0.0001 per share.
The 1-for-30 reverse stock split will automatically convert 30 shares of the Company’s common stock into one new share of common stock. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders 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 split will reduce the number of shares of outstanding common stock from approximately 695,000,000 shares to approximately 23,170,000 shares. Additionally, outstanding equity-based awards and other outstanding equity rights will be proportionately adjusted.
The Company’s transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (“AST”), will act as the exchange agent for the reverse stock split. Stockholders of record will be receiving information from AST regarding their stock ownership following the reverse stock split. Stockholders owning shares via a bank, broker or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split and will not be required to take further action in connection with the reverse stock split, subject to brokers’ particular processes. AST can be reached at (877) 248-6417 or (718) 921-8317.
Additional information concerning the reverse stock split can be found in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on March 9, 2023, and in the Company’s current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 11, 2023.
