Historical Context
| Date | Event | Sentiment | Move | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mar 27 | Nasdaq deficiency notice | Negative | -1.5% | Nasdaq letter citing ADS bid below $1.00 for 32 business days. |
| Jan 15 | Crypto mining update | Positive | +0.9% | Initial 151.4 BTC output and hashrate ramp to 9.66 EH/s disclosed. |
| Dec 29 | EGM capital changes | Neutral | -0.9% | Share class reallocation and adoption of new memorandum and articles. |
Recent news-driven moves have been modest but directionally consistent: negative compliance news and administrative changes saw small declines, while Bitcoin mining expansion coincided with a mild gain.
Over the last six months, NIPG news has focused on listing compliance, capital structure, and Bitcoin mining expansion. A March 24, 2026 Nasdaq deficiency notice about sub-$1.00 ADS prices led to a -1.54% move. Earlier, a December 29, 2025 extraordinary general meeting approved capital and charter changes with a mild -0.94% reaction. A January 15, 2026 update highlighted 151.4 BTC production and rising hashrate, with a modest 0.91% gain. Today’s ADS ratio change fits this theme of structural and listing-related actions.
Market Pulse Summary
The stock dropped -11.3% in the session following this news. A negative reaction despite the mechanical nature of the ADS ratio change fits a pattern where reverse-split-type actions are viewed cautiously. The company previously received a Nasdaq deficiency notice for trading below $1.00, and has recently issued large blocks of Class A shares to acquire Bitcoin mining assets. Together with a pre-news price of $0.44, near the $0.367 52-week low, the ADS consolidation may be interpreted as a response to listing pressure rather than a fundamental improvement.

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates, June 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NIP Group Inc. (“NIPG” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: NIPG) today announced that it plans to change the ratio of its American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) to its Class A ordinary shares (the “ADS Ratio Change”) from one (1) ADS representing two (2) Class A ordinary shares to one (1) ADS representing sixty (60) Class A ordinary shares.
For the Company’s ADS holders, the ADS Ratio Change will have the same effect as a one-for-thirty reverse ADS split. A post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement on Form F-6 will be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to reflect the ADS Ratio Change. The Company anticipates that the ADS Ratio Change will be effective on or about July 6, 2026, U.S. Eastern Time (the “Effective Date”), subject to the effectiveness of the post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement on Form F-6 on or before that date.
On the Effective Date, holders of ADSs in the Direct Registration System (“DRS”) and in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) will have their ADSs automatically exchanged and need not take any action. The exchange of every thirty (30) then-held (existing) ADSs for one (1) new ADS will occur automatically on the Effective Date, with the then-held ADSs being cancelled and new ADSs being issued by the depositary bank. Citibank, N.A., as the depositary bank for the Company’s ADS program, will arrange for the exchange. The Company’s ADSs will continue to be traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker symbol “NIPG.”
No fractional new ADSs will be issued in connection with the ADS Ratio Change. Instead, fractional entitlements to new ADSs will be aggregated and sold by the depositary bank and the net cash proceeds from the sale of the fractional ADS entitlements (after deduction of fees, taxes and expenses) will be distributed to the applicable ADS holders by the depositary bank. The ADS Ratio Change will have no impact on the Company’s underlying Class A ordinary shares, and no Class A ordinary shares will be issued or cancelled in connection with the ADS Ratio Change.
As a result of the ADS Ratio Change, the trading price of the Company’s ADSs is expected to increase proportionately upon the effectiveness of the ADS Ratio Change, although there can be no assurance that the ADS trading price after the ADS Ratio Change will be equal to or greater than thirty times the ADS trading price before the ADS Ratio Change.
The depositary bank and the Company have also agreed to amend the deposit agreement, dated as of July 25, 2024, in order to reflect the ADS Ratio Change.
