CAMBRIDGE, Mass., May 15, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cyclerion Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”, “Cyclerion Therapeutics”, “Cyclerion”) (Nasdaq: CYCN) announced today that it will effect a reverse stock split of its outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of 1-for-20, effective as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on May 15, 2023. The reverse stock split was approved by the Company’s stockholders at its annual meeting of stockholders held on May 15, 2023, with the final ratio determined by the Company’s board of directors.

As a result of the reverse stock split, each twenty shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock will be automatically combined and converted into one issued and outstanding share of common stock. The Company’s shares of common stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis under a new CUSIP number 23255M204 on The Nasdaq Capital Market commencing upon market open on May 16, 2023 under the existing symbol “CYCN.” Outstanding equity-based awards and other outstanding equity rights will be proportionately adjusted. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the reverse stock split. Stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of common stock will instead receive cash in lieu of fractional shares based on $0.2232, the closing sale price of the common stock as reported in the Wall Street Journal on May 12, 2023. Immediately after the reverse stock split becomes effective, there will be approximately 2,176,244 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
