Is a Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN) reverse stock split underway?
Many shareholders are anticipating MULN stock to undergo a reverse stock split, similar to what AMC Entertainment is proposing to its shareholders.
What is a reverse stock split anyway?
And how will this affect shareholders portfolios?
Let’s use AMC’s 1-for-10 reverse stock split as an example.
If an investor holds 100 shares, after a 1-for-10 reverse split they will hold 10 shares but the price of the stock will 10x.
In AMC’s case, if a reverse stock split occurs today around approximately $6.58, then the share price will go up to $65.80.
Similarly, if a shareholder holds 1,000 shares, after a reverse stock split they will hold 100 shares.
Why would Mullen Automotive issue a reverse stock split?
The company has until March 6th to meet the Nasdaq minimum bid requirement of $1 per share.
If the company is unable to meet the requirement, it will enter a grace period before getting delisted.
the company said in a statement that it intends to seek an extension from Nasdaq to meet the $1-per-share threshold.
“If such extension is granted, compliance of the minimum $1 stock share threshold requirement may be extended for a further 180 days until approximately September 6,” the company said.
Will Mullen Automotive Issue a Reverse Stock Split?
The company has no plans at the current time to effect a reverse split. The Company has until March 6, 2023 to meet the Nasdaq minimum bid requirement of $1.00, said the Mullen Press Release as of January 25, 2023.
However, the company also stated the following:
“If the company still falls short of the minimum bid requirement, it will effect a reverse stock split at that time to maintain its Nasdaq listing compliance.”
- If MULN stock is unable to meet $1 per share by March 6th, an extension will be requested.
- If an extension is APPROVED for a further 180 days until September 6th and shares have failed to reach $1, only then…
- Will MULN issue a reverse stock split to maintain the Nasdaq listing compliance.
At current prices, Mullen Automotive would need to issue a 1-for-5 reverse stock split, putting MULN shares at $1.05; $0.21 per share today.
This means shareholders with 100 shares would then own 20 shares and shareholders with 1,000 shares would own 200 shares.
