SpongeTech® Delivery Systems Announces Reverse Stock Split to Move Closer to NASDAQ Listing
SpongeTech® Delivery Systems, Inc. (“SpongeTech”) “The Smarter Sponge™”, (OTCBB: SPNG) today announced that its Board of Directors has unanimously approved a reverse split of SpongeTech®’s issued and outstanding capital stock at a 1-for-100 split ratio. The reverse stock split, which is expected to take effect on September 22, 2009, subject to receipt of necessary regulatory approvals, has also been approved by the holders of more than a majority of SpongeTech’s voting capital stock.
The same 1-for-100 reverse stock split ratio will be used to effect the reverse stock split of SpongeTech®’s issued and outstanding common stock, Class B Stock and preferred stock. Accordingly, all stockholders will be affected proportionately.
“This reverse stock split – which we believe will bring our company’s Wall Street profile in synch with our business profile – is another important step in the development of SpongeTech,” said CEO Michael Metter. “Combined with our recent engagement of Deloitte Touche LLP as our public accountants and our plan to apply for a NASDAQ listing, the reverse stock split demonstrates our commitment to establishing SpongeTech as a world-class company whose capital structure, operations and infrastructure all match the impressive sales growth we are achieving.
“We continue to expand our product portfolio, licensing agreements, and sales and marketing programs, and are very excited about the record-breaking order flow these efforts are producing. Our July 2009 acquisition of Dicon Technologies, a recognized product innovator with exceptional R&D capabilities, established distribution channels in the U.S. and Asia, and many large, direct commercial customers, perfectly positions us to leverage the many exceptional opportunities in our targeted marketplace. We’re committed both to building SpongeTech into a global player and building shareholder value, and this step will help us realize each of these goals.” Full Article
