Quotient Limited Announces Reverse Stock Split Effective Today


JERSEY, Channel Islands, Nov. 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quotient Limited (Nasdaq: QTNT) (the "Company"), a commercial-stage diagnostics company, today announced that a reverse split of its ordinary shares, nil par value ("Ordinary Shares"), at a ratio of 1-for-40 became effective following close of trading on the Nasdaq Global Market today. The Company's Ordinary Shares will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis when the market opens on November 3, 2022 under the existing trading symbol, "QTNT."

The reverse stock split is primarily intended to bring the Company into compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for maintaining its listing on the Nasdaq Global Market. The new CUSIP number for the Ordinary Shares following the reverse stock split is G73268149.

As a result of the reverse stock split, every forty shares of the Company's Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding was automatically reclassified into one Ordinary Share. The reverse stock split did not modify any rights or preferences of the Ordinary Shares. Shareholders holding Ordinary Shares through a brokerage account will have their Ordinary Shares automatically adjusted to reflect the 1-for-40 reverse stock split. It is not necessary for shareholders holding Ordinary Shares in certificated form to exchange their existing share certificates for new share certificates of the Company in connection with the reverse stock split, although stockholders may do so if they wish. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse split. The Company's transfer agent will aggregate all fractional shares held by the Company's shareholders into whole shares and arrange for them to be sold on the open market at prevailing prices. In lieu of fractional shares, shareholders will receive a cash payment equal to their allocable share of the total proceeds of these sales.

Additional information about the reverse stock split can be found in the Company's definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 8, 2022, as amended or supplemented from time to time, which is available free of charge at the SEC's website, www.sec.gov.
