Novo Integrated Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: NVOS) (the “Company” or
“Novo”), today announced that the Company will undertake a reverse
stock split of its common stock at a ratio of 1-for-10 (the
"Reverse Stock Split"). The Reverse Stock Split is expected to
become effective immediately after the close of trading on the
Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq") on November 6, 2023 (the
"Effective Date") and the Company’s common stock is expected to
begin trading on Nasdaq on a Reverse Stock Split-adjusted basis on
November 7, 2023, under the new CUSIP number, 67011T300.
Robert Mattacchione, Novo’s CEO and Chairman of the Board,
stated, “Although we have been investigating various strategies to
regain compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement, we
believe that effectuating a reverse stock split is the most
appropriate course of action at this time. We believe that by
promptly addressing the uncertainty regarding our listing we will
be better positioned to maximize value for our shareholders.”
Stockholder approval for the Reverse Stock Split was obtained at
the Company's annual meeting of stockholders on September 29, 2023.
After careful consideration in light of current market conditions,
the Company's Board of Directors approved the Reverse Stock Split
ratio of 1-for-10. The Company believes maintaining its Nasdaq
listing will situate Novo more favorably and potentially attract a
broader group of institutional and retail investors.
About the Reverse Stock
Split
As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 10 pre-split
shares of common stock outstanding will become one share of common
stock. In the case of common stock registered directly on the books
of Pacific Stock Transfer Company, Novo’s transfer agent, no
fractional shares of common stock will be issued as a result of the
Reverse Stock Split. Rather, any fractional shares will be rounded
up to the next higher whole share.
In the case of common stock held through a broker, bank, or
nominee, your broker, bank, or nominee will determine the process
for dealing with any entitlements to fractional shares of common
stock.
The Reverse Stock Split will not affect the number of authorized
shares of common stock, the par value of the common stock, or
modify any rights or preferences of shares of the Company's common
stock. Proportionate adjustments will be made to the exercise
prices and the number of shares underlying the Company's
outstanding equity awards and warrants, as applicable.
Additional information about the Reverse Stock Split can be
found in Novo’s definitive proxy statement filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on August 18, 2023,
which is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
About Novo Integrated Sciences,
Inc.
Novo Integrated Sciences, Inc. is pioneering a holistic approach
to patient-first health and wellness through a multidisciplinary
healthcare ecosystem of services and product innovation. Novo
offers an essential and differentiated solution to deliver, or
intend to deliver, these services and products through the
integration of medical technology, advanced therapeutics, and
rehabilitative science.
We believe that “decentralizing” healthcare, through the
integration of medical technology and interconnectivity, is an
essential solution to the rapidly evolving fundamental
transformation of how non-catastrophic healthcare is delivered both
now and in the future. Specific to non-critical care, ongoing
advancements in both medical technology and inter-connectivity are
allowing for a shift of the patient/practitioner relationship to
the patient’s home and away from on-site visits to primary medical
centers with mass-services. This acceleration of “ease-of-access”
in the patient/practitioner interaction for non-critical care
diagnosis and subsequent treatment minimizes the degradation of
non-critical health conditions to critical conditions as well as
allowing for more cost-effective healthcare distribution.
The Company’s decentralized healthcare business model is
centered on three primary pillars to best support the
transformation of non-catastrophic healthcare delivery to patients
and consumers:
- First Pillar: Service Networks. Deliver multidisciplinary
primary care services through (i) an affiliate network of clinic
facilities, (ii) small and micro footprint sized clinic facilities
primarily located within the footprint of box-store commercial
enterprises, (iii) clinic facilities operated through a franchise
relationship with the Company, and (iv) corporate operated clinic
facilities.
- Second Pillar: Technology. Develop, deploy, and integrate
sophisticated interconnected technology, interfacing the patient to
the healthcare practitioner thus expanding the reach and
availability of the Company’s services, beyond the traditional
clinic location, to geographic areas not readily providing
advanced, peripheral based healthcare services, including the
patient’s home.
- Third Pillar: Products. Develop and distribute effective,
personalized health and wellness product solutions allowing for the
customization of patient preventative care remedies and ultimately
a healthier population. The Company’s science-first approach to
product innovation further emphasizes our mandate to create and
provide over-the-counter preventative and maintenance care
solutions.
Innovation through science combined with the integration of
sophisticated, secure technology assures Novo Integrated Sciences
of continued cutting-edge advancement in patient-first
platforms.
