Ontrak, Inc. Announces Reverse Stock Split

MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep 19, 2024--

Ontrak, Inc. (NASDAQ: OTRK), a leading AI-powered and technology-enabled behavioral healthcare company, today announced that it will implement a 1-for-15 reverse split of the issued shares of its common stock, effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on September 23, 2024. The Company's common stock is expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis when the market opens on September 23, 2024, and will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “OTRK.” The new CUSIP number for the common stock will be 683373 401.

The reverse stock split is intended to increase the bid price of the common stock to enable the Company to regain compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company’s stockholders authorized the reverse stock split at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held on September 10, 2024.

When the reverse stock split becomes effective, every 15 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding or held by the Company in treasury will automatically be combined and reclassified into one share of common stock. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the reverse stock split. Stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share will instead automatically have their fractional interests rounded up to the next whole share, after aggregating all the fractional interests of a holder resulting from the reverse stock split. The reverse stock split will affect all stockholders uniformly and will not change any stockholder’s percentage ownership interest or any stockholder’s proportionate voting power, except for immaterial changes that may result from the treatment of fractional shares. The reverse stock split will not change the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock or the par value per share of the Company’s common stock.

The reverse stock split will reduce the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock from approximately 48.0 million to approximately 3.2 million.

As a result of the reverse stock split, proportionate adjustments will be made to the per share exercise prices of, and the number of shares underlying, the Company’s outstanding stock options, as well as to the number of shares available for future awards granted under the Company’s stock incentive plans. In addition, proportionate adjustments will be made to the per share exercise prices of, and the number of shares underlying, outstanding warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock.

The combination of, and reduction in, the issued shares of common stock as a result of the reverse stock split will occur automatically at the effective time of the reverse stock split without any additional action on the part of the Company’s stockholders. The Company's transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, is acting as the exchange agent for the reverse stock split and will send stockholders of record holding their shares electronically in book-entry form a transaction notice indicating the number of shares of common stock held after the reverse stock split. Stockholders who hold their shares through a broker, bank, or other nominee will have their positions adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, subject to their broker, bank, or other nominee’s particular processes, and are not expected to be required to take any action in connection with the reverse stock split.

Additional information regarding the reverse stock split can be found in the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the annual meeting of stockholders of the Company held on September 10, 2024, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on July 29, 2024, a copy of which is available at www.sec.gov and on the Company's website.
