MINNEAPOLIS, MN / ACCESSWIRE / December 31, 2020 / Insignia Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:ISIG) today announced that effective at 5:00 p.m. central time on December 31, 2020, the Company will effect a seven-for-one reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock.
The Company's common stock will continue to trade under the symbol "ISIG" and it is expected to open for trading on Nasdaq on January 4, 2021 on a post-split basis.
The reverse stock split is primarily intended to bring the Company into compliance with the minimum bid price requirement to maintain the listing of its common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, every seven shares of issued and outstanding common stock at the close of business on December 31, 2020 automatically will be combined into one issued and outstanding share of common stock, with no change in par value per share.
The reverse stock split will reduce the number of shares of the Company's authorized common stock from 40 million shares to approximately 5.7 million shares. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the reverse stock split. Any fractional shares that would result from the reverse stock split will be cancelled in exchange for the payment of cash consideration.
The reverse stock split will affect all issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, as well as the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Company's equity compensation programs and all outstanding equity-based awards. The reverse stock split will reduce the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise or vesting of equity-based awards and correspondingly increase any applicable exercise prices. The reverse stock split will affect all shareholders uniformly and will not alter any shareholder's percentage interest in the Company's equity, except to the extent that the reverse stock split results in some shareholders experiencing an adjustment of a fractional share as described above.
Shareholders holding share certificates will receive information from EQ Shareowner Services, the Company's transfer agent, regarding the process for exchanging their shares of common stock. Shareholders with questions may contact our transfer agent by calling 800-401-1957.
