Algorhythm Holdings Announces Date and Ratio of Reverse Stock Split

Fort Lauderdale, FL, Feb. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Algorhythm Holdings, Inc. ("Algorhythm" or "Company") (NASDAQ: RIME) – an AI technology and consumer electronics holding company, announced today the date of effectiveness and the ratio of a forthcoming reverse stock split (the "Reverse Split") of the Company's Common Stock (the "Common Stock"). On January 13, 2025, the Company announced, on a Current Report on Form 8-K, the voting results from the annual meeting of stockholders (the "Meeting") held that day. At the Meeting, stockholders voted upon and approved Proposal 3, an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to effect a Reverse Split with a ratio of not less than one-for-ten and not more than one-for-two-hundred-and-fifty at any time prior to January 13, 2026, with the exact ratio to be set at a whole number within this range as determined by the Company's board of directors (the "Board") in its sole discretion.

On January 14, 2025, the Board approved a one-for-two-hundred (1:200) Reverse Split of the Common Stock. The Company anticipates that beginning with the opening of trading on February 10, 2025, the Company's Common Stock will trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market on a split-adjusted basis and will have a new CUSIP number, 829322502.

The Reverse Split affects all issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock, as well as the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Company's equity incentive plans. In addition, the Reverse Split reduces the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options or warrants outstanding immediately prior to the Reverse Split. The par value of the Common Stock will remain unchanged at $0.01 per share after the Reverse Split. The Reverse Split affects all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder's percentage interest in the Company's equity, except to the extent that the Reverse Split results in some stockholders owning a fractional share. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Split instead the Company intends to aggregate fractional shares and round up to one whole share for record holders and holders at the participant level.

The Company anticipates that the reverse stock split will increase the market price per share of the Company's common stock, bringing the Company into compliance with The Nasdaq Capital Market's $1.00 minimum bid price listing requirement.

Registered stockholders holding pre-split shares of the Company's common stock are not required to take any action to receive post-split shares. Stockholders owning shares via a broker, bank, trust or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the reverse stock split.
