HWH International Inc. announced on February 20, 2025, a 1-for-5 reverse stock split of its common stock, effective February 24, 2025. The company's common stock is expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis under the existing symbol 'HWH' on that date.
The primary purpose of the reverse stock split is to bring HWH into compliance with the minimum bid price requirements for maintaining its listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. This action was approved by the majority of the company’s stockholders and its Board of Directors on January 16, 2025.
As a result of the split, every five shares of common stock will be reclassified into one new share, with proportionate adjustments to warrants. No fractional shares will be issued; stockholders will receive cash payments for any fractional entitlements.
For investors, a reverse stock split is a critical corporate action that impacts the number of shares outstanding and the per-share price. While it addresses listing compliance, such actions are often perceived as a response to sustained low stock prices, which can influence investor sentiment.
