TEL AVIV, Israel, March 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hub Cyber Security Ltd. (Nasdaq: HUBC) (“HUB Security” or the “Company”), a global leader in confidential computing and secured data fabric technology, today announced a 1-for-10 reverse share split of its ordinary shares, no par value per share (the “Ordinary Shares”). The reverse share split and corresponding share capital adjustment will become effective at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday, March 28, 2025. The Ordinary Shares will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) at the open of business on Monday, March 31, 2025, under the existing trading symbol “HUBC,” but the Ordinary Shares will trade under a new CUSIP number, M6000J168. HUB Security’s outstanding warrants will continue to be traded under the symbols “HUBCW” and “HUBCZ” and the CUSIP numbers for such warrants will remain unchanged.
As a result of the reverse share split, every 10 issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares will automatically be converted into one Ordinary Share. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the reverse share split. Instead, in accordance with the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Association, all fractional shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole share. The reverse share split affects all shareholders uniformly and will not alter any shareholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company’s issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, except for adjustments that may result from the treatment of fractional shares.
The reverse share split will also affect the Company’s derivative securities, including outstanding notes, options, warrants and restricted share units (collectively, the “Outstanding Equity Rights”). Generally, the plans and other documents pertaining to the Outstanding Equity Rights include provisions providing for adjustments in the event of a reverse share split in order to maintain the same economic effect. Specifically, the exercise price and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to Outstanding Equity Rights will be adjusted pursuant to the terms of such instruments in connection with the reverse share split.
The Company believes the reverse share split will increase the per share trading price of the Ordinary Shares and enable the Company to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1).
Additional information regarding the reverse share split can be found in the Company’s proxy statement furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 4, 2025.
