Los Angeles, CA., July 27, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Draganfly Inc. (OTCQB: DFLYF) (CSE: DFLY) (FSE: 3U8) (“Draganfly” or the “Company”), Draganfly announced today that in connection with the proposed listing of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares (“Common Shares”) on The Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Nasdaq”), the Company’s new consolidated shares on a basis of one (1) new Common Share for every five (5) currently issued and outstanding common shares under the new stock symbol “DPRO” and with a new CUSIP number 16142Q205 and new ISIN CA26142Q2053 number.
The consolidation is expected to take effect on July 29, 2021. Immediately prior to the consolidation there are expected to be 135,229,434 Common Shares issued and outstanding, and it is expected that there will be 27,045,887 Common Shares following the consolidation, subject to rounding for any fractional shares. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the share consolidation and the number of post consolidation shares to be received by a shareholder will be rounded up, in the case of a fractional interest that is 0.5 or greater, or rounded down, in the case of a fractional interest that is less than 0.5, to the nearest whole number of shares that such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive upon the implementation of the share consolidation.
Upon consolidation, the Common Shares are intended to but are not guaranteed to immediately list on the Nasdaq under the stock symbol “DPRO” and under the new CUSIP number 16142Q205 and new ISIN CA26142Q2053 number . There is no assurance that the Common Shares will be listed on Nasdaq, as the listing remains subject to the satisfaction of Nasdaq’s listing requirements. In addition, Draganfly will apply to change its trading symbol on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) to “DPRO” to align with its symbol on the Nasdaq.
Registered shareholders holding share certificates will be mailed a letter of transmittal advising of the share consolidation and instructing them to surrender their share certificates representing pre-consolidation shares for replacement certificates or a direct registration advice representing their post-consolidation shares. Until surrendered for exchange, following the effective date of the consolidation, is expected to be July 29, 2021, each share certificate formerly representing pre-consolidation shares will be deemed to represent the number of whole post-consolidation shares to which the holder is entitled as a result of the consolidation.
Holders of shares of the Company who hold uncertificated shares (that is shares held in book-entry form and not represented by a physical share certificate), either as registered holders or beneficial owners, will have their existing book-entry account(s) electronically adjusted by the Company's transfer agent or, for beneficial shareholders, by their brokerage firms, banks, trusts or other nominees that hold in street name for their benefit. Such holders do not need to take any additional actions to exchange their pre-consolidation shares for post-consolidation shares. If you hold your shares with such a bank, broker or other nominee, and if you have questions in this regard, you are encouraged to contact your nominee.
