Apollo Medical Holdings Announces reverse stock split and nasdaq listing submission
GLENDALE, Calif., April 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. ("ApolloMed") (OTC-QB: AMEH), an integrated patient-centered, physician-driven healthcare delivery company, today announced that it has effected a one-for-ten (1-for-10) reverse stock split of its common stock. Beginning with the opening of trading on April 27, 2015, the Company's common stock will trade on a split-adjusted basis. The Company also announced that it has submitted an initial listing application to the NASDAQ Stock Market to have its common stock approved for listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market.
The Board of Directors approved the reverse stock split on April 17, 2015, pursuant to authorization by shareholders at the Company's annual meeting held on September 30, 2014. The Board approved the stock split to support the NASDAQ Capital Market listing application. The Company cannot assure that the listing will be approved.
Following the reverse stock split, each ten shares of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock will be automatically converted into one issued and outstanding share of the Company's common stock. The reverse stock split will affect all issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, as well as common stock underlying stock options, warrants, other common stock-based equity grants and any other of the Company's securities converted into or exchangeable for shares of the Company's common stock, outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of the reverse stock split. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders who would otherwise hold a fractional share of common stock will receive a cash payment in lieu of such fractional share. The reverse stock split will not affect any stockholder's ownership percentage of the Company's common stock, except to the limited extent that the reverse stock split would result in any fractional shares, which will be cashed out.
The reverse stock split will reduce the number of shares of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock from approximately 48.6 million to approximately 4.86 million. The reverse stock split does not have any effect on the Company's authorized capital stock.
The Company's trading symbol of "AMEH" will not change as a result of the reverse stock split, although it is expected that the letter "D" will be appended to the Company's ticker for approximately 20 trading days following the effective date to indicate the completion of the reverse stock split. In addition, the common stock will trade under a new CUSIP number, 03763A207.
Stockholders holding shares through a brokerage account will have their shares automatically adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split as of the effective date. Stockholders with existing stock certificates who have questions may call the Company's transfer agent, OTC Stock Transfer, at 801-272-7272. Stockholders with fractional shares will be cashed out directly by the Company without further action required by these stockholders.
