WeWork to Conduct 1-for-40 Reverse Stock Split
18 August 2023 - 12:30PM
Business Wire
WeWork Inc. (NYSE: WE) (“WeWork” or the “Company”), the leading
global flexible space provider, today announced that it will
proceed with a 1-for-40 reverse stock split of its outstanding
shares of Class A Common Stock and Class C Common Stock following
approval by its Board of Directors and within the ratio range
previously authorized by shareholders at the annual meeting of
WeWork shareholders on June 12, 2023.
The reverse stock split will be effective at 4:01 p.m., Eastern
Time, on September 1, 2023. The Company’s Class A Common Stock will
begin trading on a post-split basis at the market open on September
5, 2023. The reverse stock split is being effected primarily to
increase the Company’s per share trading price and to regain
compliance with the $1.00 per share minimum closing price required
to maintain continued listing on the New York Stock Exchange. The
Company does not expect the reverse stock split to impact its
current or future business operations.
When the reverse stock split is effective, every 40 shares of
WeWork Common Stock issued and outstanding will be combined
automatically into one share of WeWork Common Stock. The reverse
stock split will apply equally to all outstanding shares of the
Class A Common Stock and Class C Common Stock, and each stockholder
will hold the same percentage of Class A Common Stock and Class C
Common Stock outstanding immediately following the reverse stock
split, except for adjustments that may result from the treatment of
fractional shares. No fractional shares will be issued in
connection with the reverse stock split. Holders of the Class A
Common Stock and Class C Common Stock will receive a cash payment
(without interest) in lieu of any fractional shares.
