© Redhill Biopharma PR RedHill Biopharma (RDHL) to Implement ADS Ratio Change to 1:400
RedHill Biopharma (NASDAQ:) Ltd. (Nasdaq: RDHL) today announced that it plans to implement a ratio change of the Company’s American Depositary Shares (ADSs) to its non-traded ordinary shares from the current ratio of one (1) ADS representing ten (10) ordinary shares to a new ratio of one (1) ADS representing four hundred (400) ordinary shares. The anticipated first date of the ratio change is on or about March 23, 2023, and the Company’s ADSs will continue to be traded on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “RDHL” with a new CUSIP Number 757468202.
For ADS holders, the ratio change will have the same effect as a one-for-forty reverse ADS split. No new ADSs will be issued in connection with the change in the ADS ratio. ADS holders will not be required to take any action and, on the effective date, the Bank of New York Mellon, the depositary bank for RedHill’s ADS program, will arrange for the exchange of every forty (40) existing ADSs held for one (1) new ADS.
No fractional new ADSs will be issued in connection with the change in the ADS ratio. Instead, fractional entitlements to new ADSs will be aggregated, and the depositary bank will attempt to sell them with the net cash proceeds from the sale of the fractional ADS entitlements to be distributed to the applicable ADS holders by the depositary bank.
On October 18, 2022, the Company announced that it had received notification from the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC that it did not comply with the minimum bid price requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market. The Company anticipates that after the ratio change, the price of its ADS will increase proportionally and meet the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement, however there can be no assurance that such an increase will occur.
