Phunware Announces Reverse Stock Split

AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Phunware, Inc. (Nasdaq: PHUN, “Phunware” or the “Company”), the pioneer of patented Location Based SaaS solutions and other products that offer the only fully integrated enterprise cloud platform for mobile that enables brands to engage, manage and monetize anyone anywhere, today announced that on February 26, 2024, the Company will implement a 1-for-50 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. The reverse stock split will be effective as of 5 PM Eastern Time on February 26, 2024, and the Company’s common stock will trade on a post-split adjusted basis as of the commencement of trading on February 27, 2024, under the existing trading symbol “PHUN.” The CUSIP number for the Company’s common stock following the reverse stock split will be 71948P 209.

The Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") approved implementation of the reverse stock split upon the authorization granted by the Company's stockholders at the annual meeting held on December 20, 2023, whereby the Company's stockholders approved a proposal to grant the Company's Board the discretion to affect a reverse stock split at a ratio of not less than one-for-ten (1:10) and not more than one-for-fifty (1:50), with such ratio to be determined by the Board. The reverse stock split is intended to increase the market price per share of the Company's common stock to regain compliance with the minimum bid continued listing requirement of The Nasdaq Capital Market. All outstanding securities entitling their holders to purchase shares of common stock or acquire shares of common stock of the Company, including stock options and warrants, will be adjusted as a result of the reverse stock split, as required by the terms of those securities.

As a result of the reverse stock split, every 50 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of the effective date will be automatically combined into one share of common stock. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the reverse stock split. Stockholders of record who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share will automatically be entitled to the rounding up of the fractional share to the nearest whole share. The reverse stock split will not change the par value of the common stock or modify the rights or preferences of the common stock. Immediately after the reverse stock split becomes effective, the Company will have approximately 8 million shares of common stock issued and outstanding. The reverse split affects all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder's percentage interest in the Company's equity, except to the extent that the reverse split would result in some stockholders owning a fractional share as described above. The Company's transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, is acting as the exchange agent and transfer agent for the reverse stock split. Stockholders holding their shares in book-entry form or in brokerage accounts need not take any action in connection with the reverse stock split. Beneficial holders are encouraged to contact their bank, broker or custodian with any procedural questions.
