Neptune Wellness Solutions Inc. ("Neptune" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: NEPT) (TSX: NEPT), a diversified and fully integrated health and wellness company focused on plant-based, sustainable and purpose-driven lifestyle brands, announced today, further to its news release on June 8, 2022, the completion of the Company's proposed consolidation of its common shares (the "Common Shares") on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation Common Share for every thirty-five (35) pre-consolidation Common Shares (the "Consolidation").
It is anticipated that the post-Consolidation Common Shares will commence trading on the NASDAQ and the TSX at the market open on or about June 13, 2022. The Company's name and trading symbol remain unchanged on the NASDAQ and the TSX as a consequence of the Consolidation. The new CUSIP and ISIN numbers for the consolidated Common Shares are 64079L204 and CA64079L2049, respectively.
The Consolidation will reduce the number of Common Shares issued and outstanding from approximately 198 million Common Shares to approximately 5.7 million Common Shares. No fractional Common Shares will be issued in connection with the Consolidation. Each fractional Common Share remaining after completion of the Consolidation that is less than one (1) whole of a Common Share will be increased to one (1) whole Common Share.
The Company's transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc., acting as the exchange agent for the Consolidation, has mailed to all registered holders of Common Shares (the "Registered Holders") a letter of transmittal (the "Letter of Transmittal") that may be used by such Registered Holders to exchange their pre-Consolidation Common Share certificates for certificates in the capital of the Company representing the consolidated number of Common Shares. A copy of the Letter of Transmittal is available on the Company's issuer profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
Non-registered or beneficial holders holding their Common Shares through a bank, broker or other nominee do not need to complete a Letter of Transmittal and should note that such banks, brokers or other nominees may have specific procedures for processing the Consolidation. Shareholders holding their Common Shares with such a bank, broker or nominee and who have any questions in this regard are encouraged to contact their nominee.
Neither NASDAQ nor the Toronto Stock Exchange accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
