MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA, USA, December 29, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- PetVivo Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: PETV) (the "Company") announced today that it has approved a 1-for-4 reverse stock split of its shares of common stock (“Reverse Stock Split”). PetVivo’s stockholders granted authority to the Board of Directors to effect this Reverse Stock Split of the Company’s common stock at its stockholder meeting held on September 22, 2020.
The Reverse Stock Split is scheduled to take effect today, December 29, 2020, at 5:00 p.m. ET (the “Effective Time”). The Company’s common stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on Wednesday, December 30, 2020, under the new CUSIP number 716817408. The Company’s trading symbol will change to PETVD for a period of 20 business days, after which the D will be removed from the Company’s trading symbol and it will revert to the symbol of PETV.

John Lai, CEO of the Company, commented, “the purpose of this reverse stock split is to improve the Company’s capital structure related to listing requirements for a planned future listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market^® (“Nasdaq”).
Pursuant to this reverse stock split, each four (4) shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock, $.001 par value per share, will be automatically combined and converted into one (1) outstanding share of common stock, $.001 par value per share. As a result of this reverse stock split, the Company’s outstanding common shares will be reduced to approximately 6,718,252 shares.
This reverse stock split will affect all shareholders uniformly and accordingly will not alter any shareholders percentage interest and ownership in the Company’s equity, except to the extent that any shareholder would result in owning a fractional common share. Any fractional shares resulting from this reverse stock split will be rounded up to the next whole number of shares.
Shareholders of the Company holding their shares through a brokerage or street account will have their shares automatically adjusted to reflect this 1-for-4 reverse stock split. In the case of shareholders holding shares in certificated form, they need to exchange their present certificates for new stock certificates. Shareholders should direct any questions concerning this reverse stock split and exchange of their certificates to their broker or to the Company’s Transfer Agent, Equity Stock Transfer, at https://equitystock.com/contact.
Concurrent with the reverse stock split, the Company increased its authorized shares of common stock to 250 million shares (250,000,000), which increase was approved by the Company’s stockholders at the September 22, 2020 meeting.
