Insights

VCIG consolidates shares 1-for-60 to support Nasdaq bid-price compliance.

VCI Global Limited is executing a 1-for-60 reverse stock split, cutting outstanding ordinary shares from approximately 65,298,054 to approximately 1,088,301. This substantially raises the per-share price mechanically without changing the company’s overall equity value.

The stated goals are to maintain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement and to strategically position the company for a potential landmark institutional transaction. The filing does not detail that transaction’s terms, size, or timing, so its significance remains conditional on future developments.

Because the split includes rounding up fractional positions to the next whole share, some holders may see a slight increase in share count versus a strict proportional split. Subsequent disclosures in future company filings would be needed to understand whether the contemplated institutional transaction proceeds and on what terms.
