Bridgeline Digital Announces 1-for-5 Reverse Stock Split

BURLINGTON, Mass., July 24, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bridgeline Digital, Inc. (NASDAQ:BLIN) (the “Company”) announced today that it will effect a one-for-five (1-for-5) reverse stock split previously approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and its stockholders at the Company’s annual meeting held on June 29, 2017. The one-for-five (1-for-5) reverse stock split will be effective as of close of business on July 24, 2017 and the Company’s stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on July 25, 2017.

The reverse stock split will reduce the number of shares of the Company’s common stock currently outstanding from approximately 21 million shares to approximately 4 million shares. Proportional adjustments will be made to the conversion and exercise prices of the Company’s outstanding convertible preferred stock, warrants, restricted stock awards, and to the number of shares issued and issuable under the Company’s stock option plans. The number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock will remain 50 million shares and the par value will remain $0.001.

The reverse stock split is intended to increase the market price per share of the Company’s common stock to allow the Company to maintain the listing of its common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market. The Company’s common stock will continue to trade on The NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “BLIN”. The new CUSIP number for the common stock following the reverse stock split will be 10807Q403.

Information for Stockholders

Upon the effectiveness of the reverse split, each five shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock will be automatically combined and converted into one issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $.001. The Company will not issue any fractional shares in connection with the reverse stock split. Instead, fractional share interests will be rounded up to the next largest whole share. The reverse stock split will not modify the rights or preferences of the common stock.

The Company’s transfer agent, American Stock Transfer and Trust Company, LLC, will act as its exchange agent for the reverse stock split. American Stock Transfer and Trust Company, LLC will provide stockholders of record holding certificates representing pre-split shares of the Company’s common stock as of the effective date a letter of transmittal providing instructions for the exchange of shares.
