reverse stock splitfinancial
"approved a 1-for-4 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock"
A reverse stock split reduces a company's number of outstanding shares while raising the price per share proportionally, so the total value of each investor's holding is unchanged; a 1-for-10 split turns 100 shares worth $1 each into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to regain compliance with an exchange's minimum price rule or to attract investors who avoid very low-priced stocks.
par valuefinancial
"without any change to the par value of $0.001 per share"
Par value is the fixed amount printed on a bond or stock that represents its original value when issued. It’s like the face value of a coin or bill—what the issuer promises to pay back or the starting price of a stock—though it often doesn’t change with market prices. It matters because it helps determine certain financial details, like how much the company will pay back at maturity.
cusipfinancial
"under the symbol “FTFT” and under a new CUSIP number, 36117V501"
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.
street namefinancial
"Stockholders holding shares in street name through a bank, broker, or other nominee"
A "street name" is a way that stocks or other financial assets are registered under a broker's name rather than directly in an individual investor's name. This allows for easier buying, selling, and transferring of the assets, much like how a library might hold books on behalf of many readers. For investors, using a street name simplifies transactions and helps maintain privacy, but it also means the broker is the official record holder of ownership.
