Rhea-AI Filing Summary

SCWorx Corp. approved a 1-for-12 reverse stock split of its common stock, effective at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on August 3, 2026. Every twelve shares outstanding will be combined into one share, reducing issued and outstanding shares from 1,066,918 to approximately 89,000.

The number of authorized shares is unchanged, which will significantly increase authorized but unissued shares and could result in substantial dilution if issued. The split is being implemented to help regain compliance with Nasdaq's $1.00 minimum bid price rule by August 28, 2026, but may reduce liquidity, increase volatility and does not guarantee continued Nasdaq listing.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • Nasdaq listing risk: The company faces minimum bid price and $1,000,000 market value of publicly held shares deficiencies, and a Hearings Panel may delist the stock if conditions are not met by August 28, 2026.
  • Dilution potential: Authorized shares remain unchanged, so the reverse split will significantly increase authorized but unissued common shares, and any future issuance could result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders.
  • Liquidity concerns: Management warns the reverse split may reduce liquidity and increase volatility, and any move to the over-the-counter market would likely reduce liquidity and the availability of price quotations.

Filing Explained

The split is legally filed but still awaits its August 3 effective time and FINRA processing; Nasdaq compliance remains unresolved across multiple requirements.

The company has filed the certificate implementing the 1-for-12 reverse split, but the amendment remains pending until August 3, 2026 at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time. The filing also says the split is expected to push publicly held shares below Nasdaq’s 500,000-share minimum, adding a listing deficiency that must be addressed alongside the minimum-bid-price requirement.

The consolidation will occur automatically. Record holders who would otherwise receive fractional shares will receive one whole share, while street-name rounding will occur at each Depository Trust Company participant, so beneficial holders may receive different treatment through their brokers.

The filing states that the company already does not meet Nasdaq’s $1,000,000 market-value-of-publicly-held-shares requirement and has not submitted a compliance plan for that deficiency. It says both that deficiency and the publicly held-share deficiency must be cured within the compliance period tied to the minimum-bid-price requirement.

FINRA had not announced the corporate action when the filing was made, so the company’s expected split-adjusted trading date of August 4, 2026 remains subject to FINRA’s announcement. A further minimum-bid-price problem could trigger a Staff Delisting Determination after 30 consecutive business days below $1.00 during the following year, and the company says its prior 1-for-15 split plus this split would limit use of another reverse split.

Reverse Stock Split financial
"to effect a 1-for-12 Reverse Stock Split of the Company’s common stock"
A reverse stock split reduces a company's number of outstanding shares while raising the price per share proportionally, so the total value of each investor's holding is unchanged; a 1-for-10 split turns 100 shares worth $1 each into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to regain compliance with an exchange's minimum price rule or to attract investors who avoid very low-priced stocks.
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) financial
"to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2)"
market value of publicly held shares financial
"does not satisfy the $1,000,000 market value of publicly held shares requirement"
The market value of publicly held shares is the total dollar worth of a company’s shares that are available to outside investors, calculated by multiplying the current market price by the number of shares held by the public (the “float”). It matters because it tells investors how much of the company is actually tradable and how the market is pricing that tradable portion—like a price tag on the items on a store shelf, it affects liquidity, volatility and how easy it is to buy or sell a meaningful stake.
FINRA Rule 6490 financial
"has submitted the notification required by FINRA Rule 6490 with respect to the Reverse Stock Split"
Staff Delisting Determination financial
"Listing Qualifications Department will issue a Staff Delisting Determination"
A staff delisting determination is a formal finding by exchange or regulatory staff that a listed security no longer meets the rules required to stay listed, similar to an official notice that a rental property no longer qualifies for occupancy. It matters to investors because it often precedes removal from the exchange, which can sharply reduce a stock’s visibility, trading liquidity and value, and may trigger urgent choices like selling, appealing the decision or seeking alternative markets.
over-the-counter market financial
"would be expected to continue to trade in the over-the-counter market"
A market where securities are bought and sold directly between dealers and brokers instead of on a centralized stock exchange. Think of it like a neighborhood bazaar compared with a big supermarket: prices and rules can vary, oversight is lighter, and some instruments are harder to trade or riskier. Investors care because OTC listings can offer access to small or specialized investments but often come with higher price volatility, lower liquidity, and greater information risk.

FAQ

What is SCWorx (WORX) doing with its common stock on August 3, 2026?

SCWorx is implementing a 1-for-12 reverse stock split effective 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on August 3, 2026. Every twelve common shares will be automatically combined into one share, with no fractional shares issued; holders instead receive one whole share in lieu of any fraction.

How will the SCWorx (WORX) reverse stock split change shares outstanding?

The reverse split will reduce issued and outstanding common shares from 1,066,918 as of July 28, 2026 to approximately 89,000 after effectiveness. Authorized shares are unchanged, meaning authorized but unissued shares will significantly increase and could later be issued, diluting existing stockholders.

Why is SCWorx (WORX) carrying out the reverse stock split?

SCWorx is implementing the reverse split to help satisfy conditions imposed by a Nasdaq Hearings Panel and regain compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), which must be met for twenty consecutive trading days by August 28, 2026.

What Nasdaq listing deficiencies currently affect SCWorx (WORX)?

Nasdaq has notified SCWorx that it does not meet the $1,000,000 market value of publicly held shares requirement, and after the reverse split its publicly held shares will fall below the 500,000-share minimum in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(4), with no separate compliance period granted for that deficiency.

What happens if SCWorx (WORX) cannot maintain a $1.00 bid after the split?

If the closing bid is below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days within one year after the reverse split, Nasdaq will not grant any compliance period and its Listing Qualifications Department will issue a Staff Delisting Determination. Further reverse splits are also constrained by Nasdaq rules.

What could occur if SCWorx (WORX) is ultimately delisted from Nasdaq?

If delisted, SCWorx common stock would be expected to trade in the over-the-counter market, subject to market makers and regulatory requirements. The company states this would likely reduce liquidity and decrease the availability of price quotations for its shares.

How will fractional shares be handled in the SCWorx (WORX) reverse stock split?

No fractional shares will be issued. Each holder of record otherwise entitled to a fraction will instead receive one whole share. For street-name holdings, rounding occurs at each Depository Trust Company participant level, so treatment may differ from that of registered holders.

Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

 

On July 28, 2026, SCWorx Corp. (the “Company”) filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect a 1-for-12 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Certificate of Amendment becomes effective at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on August 3, 2026 (the “Effective Time”).

 

At the Effective Time, every twelve shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior thereto will be automatically combined into one share of common stock, without any action on the part of the holder. The Company had 1,066,918 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of July 28, 2026, and expects to have approximately 89,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately following the Effective Time.

 

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Each holder of record who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share will instead receive one whole share in lieu thereof. For shares held in street name, the rounding will be applied at the level of each participant in The Depository Trust Company rather than at the level of each beneficial holder. As a result, the treatment of fractional interests for beneficial holders may differ from the treatment described above for holders of record. Banks, brokers and other nominees may have their own procedures for processing the Reverse Stock Split, and beneficial holders with questions regarding the treatment of their shares should contact their bank, broker or other nominee.

 

The number of authorized shares of common stock will not be affected by the Reverse Stock Split. Because the number of authorized shares will not be reduced proportionately, the Reverse Stock Split will significantly increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock available for issuance. The Company may issue such shares without further stockholder approval, subject to applicable law and applicable Nasdaq rules, and any such issuance could result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders.

 

Adjustments will be made to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Company’s outstanding options, warrants and other convertible securities, and to the applicable exercise or conversion prices, in accordance with the operative agreements.

 

The Company has submitted the notification required by FINRA Rule 6490 with respect to the Reverse Stock Split. FINRA has not yet announced the corporate action. Subject to that announcement, the Company expects that its common stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis at the opening of trading on August 4, 2026, under the new CUSIP number 78396V 406. The date on which split-adjusted trading commences is established by FINRA’s announcement and is not within the Company’s control, and may differ from the date the Company currently expects.

 

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Company is implementing the Reverse Stock Split in an effort to satisfy the conditions imposed by the Nasdaq Hearings Panel and to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock must be at or above $1.00 per share for twenty consecutive trading days, and the Panel has required that this occur by August 28, 2026.

 

There is no assurance that the Reverse Stock Split will result in a sustained increase in the market price of the Company’s common stock, or that the Company will satisfy the Panel’s conditions. The effect of a reverse stock split on market price cannot be predicted with certainty, and the market price of the Company’s common stock may decline following the Reverse Stock Split. Because the Reverse Stock Split will reduce the number of shares of common stock outstanding, it may reduce liquidity and increase volatility.

 

Even if the Company satisfies the minimum bid price condition, there is no assurance that its common stock will resume trading on The Nasdaq Stock Market. As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 29, 2026, the Company received notice from Nasdaq that it does not satisfy the $1,000,000 market value of publicly held shares requirement, and the Company has not yet submitted a plan to regain compliance with that requirement. The Panel retains discretion over whether to continue the Company’s listing.

In addition, the Reverse Stock Split will reduce the number of the Company’s publicly held shares below the 500,000 share minimum required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(4). Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), because this deficiency will result from a corporate action taken to address the minimum bid price requirement, the Company would not be granted a separate compliance period for it and would be required to cure both deficiencies within the compliance period applicable to the minimum bid price deficiency.

 

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iv), if the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock is below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days at any time during the one-year period following the Reverse Stock Split, the Company will not be eligible for any compliance period and Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Department will issue a Staff Delisting Determination with respect to the Company’s common stock. The same result applies if the Company has effected one or more reverse stock splits over the prior two-year period with a cumulative ratio of 250 shares or more to one. The Company effected a 1-for-15 reverse stock split in April 2026, and together with the Reverse Stock Split the cumulative ratio over the prior two-year period will be 180 shares to one. Accordingly, the Company’s ability to use a further reverse stock split to address any future minimum bid price deficiency is substantially limited.

 

If the Company’s common stock is delisted from Nasdaq, it would be expected to continue to trade in the over-the-counter market, subject to the availability of one or more market makers and applicable requirements, which would likely result in reduced liquidity and reduced availability of price quotations.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the expected timing of the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, the expected date on which the Company’s common stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis, the expected number of shares outstanding following the Reverse Stock Split, the anticipated effect of the Reverse Stock Split on the market price of the Company’s common stock, the Company’s ability to satisfy the conditions imposed by the Nasdaq Hearings Panel, and the Company’s ability to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “may,” “will” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words.

 

Forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations and assumptions and are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. These risks and uncertainties include, among others: that the Reverse Stock Split may not result in an increase in the market price of the Company’s common stock proportionate to the split ratio, or any increase at all, that is sustained; that the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock may not equal or exceed $1.00 per share for twenty consecutive trading days by August 28, 2026, as required by the Hearings Panel; that the Reverse Stock Split is expected to reduce the Company’s publicly held shares below the minimum required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(4), and that the Company may be unable to cure that deficiency or its existing deficiency under the market value of publicly held shares requirement within the time available; that the Company may be unable to raise additional capital or complete an issuance of securities to non-affiliates on acceptable terms, on the required timetable, or at all; that FINRA may not announce the Reverse Stock Split on the timetable the Company expects, or may decline to process the corporate action; that the Hearings Panel may determine to delist the Company’s common stock notwithstanding the Company’s satisfaction of one or more of the Panel’s conditions; that the Company’s ability to effect a further reverse stock split to address any future minimum bid price deficiency is substantially limited by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iv); that delisting from Nasdaq would likely reduce the liquidity of, and the availability of price quotations for, the Company’s common stock and could subject it to additional regulatory requirements applicable to over-the-counter securities; that the Company may require additional financing to fund its operations; and the other risks described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and in its subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
