Positive

• Strategic move to maintain NASDAQ listing compliance by meeting the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement
• Potential to attract broader institutional life science investors with more attractive share price
• Shareholders approved higher split ratio flexibility (up to 1-for-100) giving management room for future adjustments if needed
• No fractional shares issued - shareholders receive rounded up shares benefiting small holders

Negative

• Significant reduction in outstanding shares indicates serious price decline necessitating the reverse split
• Risk of delisting if company becomes deficient with any Nasdaq Listing Rule before September 29, 2025

• No fundamental business value change despite the technical price adjustment

1-for-60 reverse stock split to become effective as of the opening of trading on June 16, 2025

Rutherford, NJ, June 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Glucotrack, Inc. (Nasdaq: GCTK) (“Glucotrack” or the “Company”), a medical technology company focused on the design, development, and commercialization of novel technologies for people with diabetes, today announced that it will effect a 1-for-60 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of its issued and outstanding common stock par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), effective with the opening of trading on Monday, June 16, 2025.

Glucotrack’s Common Stock will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “GCTK”. The new CUSIP number for the Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split will be 45824Q804.

The material effects of the Reverse Stock Split are:

●	Every 60 shares of Glucotrack’s issued and outstanding Common Stock have been combined into one (1) share of Common Stock.
●	The number of total outstanding shares of Common Stock has been proportionally reduced from 32,541,327 shares to approximately 542,356 shares.
●	The ownership percentage of each Glucotrack stockholder will remain unchanged, other than as a result of fractional shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, stockholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares because they hold a number of shares not evenly divisible by the reverse stock split ratio will automatically be entitled to receive an additional fraction of a share of Common Stock to round up to the next whole share.

At the annual meeting of stockholders held on May 22, 2025, the stockholders of the Company approved a proposal to authorize the Company’s management to file a Certificate of Amendment to effect the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio not to exceed 1-for-100, as determined by the Company’s management in its sole discretion.

Among other considerations, the Reverse Stock Split is intended to bringing Glucotrack into compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for maintaining the listing of its Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market, and to make the prevailing prices of its Common Stock more attractive to a broader group of institutional life science investors. In addition, if the Company becomes deficient with any Nasdaq Listing Rule prior to September 29, 2025, the Company may be delisted at the sole discretion of Nasdaq.

The combination of, and reduction in, the number of issued shares of Common Stock as a result of the Reverse Stock Split will occur automatically at the opening of trading on June 16, 2025, without any additional action on the part of Glucotrack’s stockholders. Glucotrack’s transfer agent, VStock Transfer, LLC, is acting as the exchange agent for the Reverse Stock Split and will send each stockholder a transaction statement indicating the number of shares of Common Stock the stockholder holds after the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders owning shares via a broker, bank, trust or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split, subject to such broker’s particular processes. Such stockholders will not be required to take any action in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.

Additional information regarding the Reverse Stock Split can be found in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 28, 2025.
