EAGAN, Minn., April 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Predictive Oncology Inc. (NASDAQ: POAI) (“Predictive Oncology” or the “Company”), today announced that it is effecting a reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio of 1 post-split share for every 20 pre-split shares.

The new CUSIP number for the Company’s common stock following the reverse stock split will be 74039M309.

The reverse stock split is primarily intended to bring the Company into compliance with the minimum bid price requirement to maintain the listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

At a reconvened special meeting of stockholders held on April 19, 2023, Predictive Oncology’s stockholders granted the Company’s Board of Directors the discretion to effect a reverse stock split of Predictive Oncology’s common stock through an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation at a ratio of not less than 1-for-2 and not more than 1-for-25, such ratio to be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors.

At the effective time of the reverse stock split, every 20 shares of Predictive Oncology’s issued and outstanding common stock will be converted automatically into one issued and outstanding share of common stock without any change in the par value per share. Stockholders holding shares through a brokerage account will have their shares automatically adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split. It is not necessary for stockholders holding shares of the Company’s common stock in certificated form to exchange their existing stock certificates for new stock certificates of the Company in connection with the reverse stock split, although stockholders may do so if they wish.

The reverse stock split will affect all holders of Predictive Oncology’s common stock uniformly and will not alter any stockholder’s percentage interest in the Company’s equity, except to the extent that the reverse stock split would result in a stockholder owning a fractional share. Any fractional share of a stockholder resulting from the reverse stock split will be rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares. The reverse stock split will reduce the number of shares of Predictive Oncology’s common stock outstanding from 79,597,181 shares to approximately 3,979,860 shares, subject to adjustment for the rounding up of fractional shares. Proportional adjustments will be made to the number of shares of Predictive Oncology’s common stock issuable upon exercise or vesting of Predictive Oncology’s equity awards, convertible preferred stock and warrants, as well as the applicable exercise price.
