Cano Health Files Preliminary Proxy Statement with the SEC to initiate plan for Reverse Stock Split
- Cano Health plans to effect a reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio of 1-for-60, with the ability to adjust the ratio. The split aims to regain compliance with NYSE listing rules and attract more investors.
- There are no assurances that the reverse stock split will be completed or achieve its intended effects.

The Company will file with the SEC and distribute to its stockholders a definitive proxy statement regarding the special stockholders' meeting and the Reverse stock split proposal. The Company plans to issue another press release when the definitive proxy statement is filed and upon completion of the Reverse Stock Split.
Completion of the proposed Reverse Stock Split is subject to market and other customary conditions, including obtaining stockholder approval. However, there are no assurances that the Reverse Stock Split will be completed, that it will result in an increased per share price or achieve its other intended effects. The Board reserves the right to elect not to proceed with the Reverse Stock Split if it determines that implementing it is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.
