NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - May 12, 2014) - Fusion (OTCQB: FSNN), a provider of integrated cloud solutions, including cloud communications, cloud connectivity, cloud computing and other cloud services such as storage and security ("Fusion" or the "Company"), announced today that FINRA has completed its review of Fusion's submission and has approved the effective date of May 13, 2014 for a 1-for-50 reverse stock split of the Company's common stock.

As a result of the reverse stock split, Fusion will trade under the symbol FSNND until June 11, 2014, at which time the trading symbol will revert to FSNN. Fusion's post-split common stock will trade under the new CUSIP Number 36113B 400.

Matthew Rosen, CEO of Fusion, said, "As we continue to grow, we believe that the time is right to restructure our capitalization, and a reverse stock split is an important step in our plans for the future of the company. We believe that our shareholders will view this event as our commitment to taking Fusion to the next level. The reverse stock split will help Fusion appeal to a much broader base of investors, increase liquidity, and help to position the company for long term value creation."

When the reverse stock split becomes effective, each fifty pre-split shares of common stock outstanding will automatically combine into one new share of common stock without any action on the part of the respective holders. The reverse stock split will apply to all issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, as well as common stock underlying stock options, warrants and convertible preferred stock outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of the reverse stock split. No fractional shares will be issued, and any fractional shares resulting from the reverse stock split will be rounded up to the nearest whole share.

The reverse stock split was previously approved by the Company's Board of Directors and by stockholders at the 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on March 28, 2014.

Further details of the reverse stock split are contained in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission this day.
