Global Medical REIT Inc. Announces the Approval of a $50 Million Common Stock Repurchase Program and One-for-Five Reverse Stock Split
Common Stock Repurchase Program
On August 12, 2025, the Board approved a
Reverse Stock Split
On August 12, 2025, the Board approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock at a ratio of one-for-five (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Reverse Stock Split is expected to take effect as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on September 19, 2025 (the “Effective Time”). As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, at the Effective Time, every five issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock will be converted into one share of Common Stock, with a proportionate reduction in the Company’s (i) authorized shares of Common Stock, (ii) outstanding equity awards, (iii) number of shares remaining available for issuance under the Company’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, and (iv) outstanding common units of the Company’s operating partnership, Global Medical REIT L.P. The par value of each share of Common Stock will remain unchanged. Trading in the Common Stock on a split adjusted basis is expected to begin at the market open on September 22, 2025. The Common Stock will continue trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “GMRE” but will be assigned a new CUSIP number.
No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, each stockholder that otherwise would receive fractional shares will be entitled to receive, in lieu of such fractional shares, cash in an amount based on the closing price of the Common Stock on the NYSE on the date of the Effective Time. The Reverse Stock Split will apply to all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the Effective Time and therefore will not affect any stockholder’s ownership percentage of shares of Common Stock, except for de minimis changes resulting from the payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares. Stockholders of record will be receiving information from Equiniti Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent, regarding their stock ownership following the Reverse Stock Split and cash in lieu of fractional share payments, if applicable. Stockholders who hold their shares in brokerage accounts or in “street name” are not required to take any action in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.
