Traeger Announces 1-for-50 Reverse Stock Split

Key Terms

reverse stock split financial

A reverse stock split is when a company reduces the number of its shares outstanding, making each share more valuable. For example, if you own 100 shares worth $1 each, a 1-for-10 reverse split would turn your 100 shares into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to boost their stock price and appear more stable to investors.

cusip financial

A CUSIP is a nine-character alphanumeric code that uniquely identifies a U.S. or Canadian financial security—such as a stock, bond, or fund share—like a Social Security number for an investment. It matters to investors because brokers, exchanges and record-keepers use the CUSIP to match trades, track ownership, settle transactions and pull accurate records, reducing errors and ensuring money and securities go to the right place.

certificate of amendment regulatory

A certificate of amendment is an official filing that updates a company’s founding documents—its legal “rulebook” that sets share structure, voting rules, name and basic purpose. Think of it like changing the blueprint of a building: small changes are paperwork, big ones can alter who owns how much and who controls decisions. Investors watch these filings because they can affect share counts, voting power, dilution and company value.

definitive proxy statement regulatory

A Definitive Proxy Statement is a detailed document that a company sends to its shareholders before a big meeting, like voting on important decisions. It explains what's being voted on and gives important information so shareholders can make informed choices. It matters because it helps shareholders understand and participate in key company decisions.

schedule 14a regulatory

Schedule 14A is a document that companies file with regulators to share important information with shareholders before a big vote, like approving a merger or election of directors. It matters because it helps investors understand what’s happening so they can make informed decisions about the company’s future.

equity awards financial

Equity awards are payments to employees or directors made in the form of company stock or rights to buy stock later, serving as a way to share ownership rather than cash. For investors, they matter because they align staff incentives with company performance, can increase the number of shares outstanding over time (which can reduce each share’s claim on profits), and create compensation costs that affect reported earnings.

SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Traeger, Inc. (“Traeger” or the “Company”) (NYSE: COOK), creator and category leader of the wood pellet grill, today announced that it will proceed with a 1-for-50 reverse stock split (“Reverse Stock Split”) of its outstanding common stock following approval by its Board of Directors. The 1-for-50 ratio is within the range approved by stockholders at a special meeting of COOK stockholders held on March 2, 2026.

The Reverse Stock Split is intended to increase the per-share trading price of the Company’s common stock, broaden its appeal to a broader group of institutional investors, and support the Company’s continued listing on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The Company also believes the Reverse Stock Split may help enhance trading liquidity and reduce stock price volatility.

The Reverse Stock Split is intended to bring the Company into compliance with the minimum share price requirement set forth in Section 802.01C of the New York Stock Exchange’s Listing Company Manual. The Reverse Stock Split is expected to become effective at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on March 17, following the filing of a Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, in substantially the form described and set forth in the Company's Definitive Proxy Statement under Proposal 1 and Annex A. The Company’s common stock is expected to begin trading on a post-split basis at the opening of the market on March 18, 2026 under the same symbol, “COOK,” with the new CUSIP number 89269P202.

When the Reverse Stock Split becomes effective, every 50 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock will be automatically combined into one share of common stock. The Reverse Stock Split will affect all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder’s percentage ownership in the Company, except for adjustments that may result from the treatment of fractional shares. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share will receive a cash payment, in lieu of any fractional shares. The cash payment to be paid will be equal to the fraction of a share to which such stockholder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by the closing price per share as reported by NYSE (as adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split) on March 17, 2026. After the Reverse Stock Split, then-current stockholders would have no further interest in the Company with respect to their fractional shares. A person entitled to only a fractional share would not have any voting, dividend or other rights in respect of their fractional share except to receive the cash payment as described above. In addition, all outstanding equity awards will be proportionately adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.

Stockholders owning shares of the Company’s common stock via a bank, broker, or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split and will not be required to take further action in connection with the Reverse Stock Split, subject to such intermediary’s particular processes.

Additional information about the Reverse Stock Split can be found in Traeger’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on January 26, 2026.
