KORE Announces Upcoming 1-for-5 Reverse Stock Split

Published June 22, 2024

In an effort to align its corporate strategy and enhance shareholder value, KORE, represented by the ticker KORE, has announced a reverse stock split of its common stock. The move is timed to take effect on July 1, 2024, when KORE common stocks are expected to commence trading on a split-adjusted basis.

Understanding the Reverse Stock Split

A reverse stock split is an action taken by a company to consolidate its number of outstanding shares into a smaller, yet proportionally more valuable, number of shares. In the case of KORE, for every five shares of common stock held by shareholders, those shares will be converted into one share. Although individual shareholders will own fewer shares, the value of each share will be increased accordingly to reflect the split, with the aim of attracting a broader range of investors and potentially improving the trading liquidity of the stock.

Implications for KORE Shareholders

Current shareholders of KORE should be aware that the reverse split will directly affect the number of shares they hold. Post the effective date of the split, shareholders' total equity value in the company will remain the same, adjusting for the reduced number of shares owned. Shareholders are also advised to consult with their financial advisors regarding the potential tax implications of the reverse stock split. The company will provide detailed information and guidance to its shareholders in preparation for this significant corporate event.
