Globalstar to implement a 1-for-15 Reverse
Stock Split effective February 11, 2025
Globalstar, Inc. (NYSE American: GSAT) (“Globalstar” or the
“Company”), a next-generation telecommunications infrastructure and
technology provider, today announced that it intends to (i)
implement the previously-disclosed reverse stock split and related
charter amendments and to voluntarily transfer the listing of its
common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) from
the NYSE American LLC (“NYSE American”) effective following the
close of trading on February 10, 2025, and (ii) transfer the
listing of its Common Stock to the Nasdaq Global Select Market
(“Nasdaq”) effective February 11, 2025. Upon transferring,
Globalstar expects to meet the eligibility requirements for
inclusion in the Nasdaq Composite Index.
“This strategic decision to complete a reverse stock split and
uplist to the Nasdaq Global Select Market reflects the strong
growth trajectory in our business. With these changes, we expect to
enhance our visibility, attract a more diverse and institutional
shareholder base, and improve overall liquidity,” said Dr. Paul E.
Jacobs, Chief Executive Officer of Globalstar.
The Company plans to file today with the Delaware Secretary of
State a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s certificate of
incorporation to (i) effect the reverse stock split at a ratio of 1
for 15 for each share of Common Stock effective as of February 10,
2025 at 5:30 PM ET (the “Effective Time”) and (ii) reduce the
number of shares of Common Stock authorized under the certificate
of incorporation in proportion to the reverse stock split
ratio.
As a result of the implementation of the reverse stock split,
every 15 shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock will be
automatically combined at the Effective Time into one issued and
outstanding share of Common Stock, without any change in the par
value per share. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of
the reverse stock split. Any fractional shares that would otherwise
have resulted from the reverse stock split will be rounded up the
next whole number. The number of authorized shares of Common Stock
under the Company’s certificate of incorporation as amended by the
Certificate of Amendment will be reduced to 143,333,334 shares of
Common Stock.
Furthermore, as a result of the reverse stock split, the Company
expects the last day of trading of its Common Stock on the NYSE
American to be February 10, 2025. The Company expects its Common
Stock will begin trading on the Nasdaq on a split-adjusted basis
under new CUSIP number 378973507 on February 11, 2025, the first
trading day after the Effective Time, and will continue to trade
under the symbol “GSAT.”
Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (“Computershare”), the
Company’s transfer agent, will act as the exchange agent for the
reverse stock split. Stockholders with certificated shares will
receive a letter of transmittal from Computershare with
instructions on how to surrender certificates representing
pre-split shares. Stockholders with book-entry shares or who hold
their shares through a bank, broker or other nominee will not need
to take any action.
Additional information about the reverse stock split and charter
amendments can be found in the Company’s definitive information
statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on
December 27, 2024.
