TEL AVIV, Israel, Sept. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gauzy Ltd. (Nasdaq: GAUZ) (“Gauzy” or the “Company”), a global leader in vision and light control technologies, today announced a 1-for-20 reverse share split of its ordinary shares, no par value per share (the “Ordinary Shares”). The reverse share split and corresponding share capital adjustment will become effective at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on September 10, 2026. The Ordinary Shares will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) at the open of business on Friday, September 11, 2026, under the existing trading symbol “GAUZ,” but the Ordinary Shares will trade under a new CUSIP number, M4757U114.
As a result of the reverse share split, every 20 issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares will automatically be converted into one Ordinary Share. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the reverse share split. Instead, all fractional shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole share. The reverse share split affects all shareholders uniformly and will not alter any shareholder's percentage ownership interest in the Company's issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, except for adjustments that may result from the treatment of fractional shares. As of the date hereof, the Company had 22,862,718 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding, which, following the effectiveness of the reverse share split, will result in 1,143,135 Ordinary Shares outstanding on a post-split basis (taking into effect the settlement of fractional shares).
The reverse share split will also affect the Company's derivative securities, including outstanding notes, options, warrants and restricted share units (collectively, the “Outstanding Equity Rights”). Generally, the plans and other documents pertaining to the Outstanding Equity Rights include provisions providing for adjustments in the event of a reverse share split in order to maintain the same economic effect. Specifically, the exercise price and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to Outstanding Equity Rights will be adjusted pursuant to the terms of such instruments in connection with the reverse share split.
The Company believes the reverse share split will increase the per share trading price of the Ordinary Shares and enable the Company to maintain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1).
Additional information regarding the reverse share split can be found in the Company's proxy statement furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 17, 2026.
