Medley Management Inc. Announces One-for-Ten Reverse Stock Split; Class A Common Stock to Begin Trading on a Split-Adjusted Basis at Market Open on November 2, 2020
NEW YORK, Oct. 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Medley Management Inc. (NYSE: MDLY) ("MDLY" or the "Company") announced today that, following the authorization granted by the stockholders at the Company's 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on October 22, 2020 (the "Annual Meeting"), the Company's board of directors (the "Board") today determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to effect a reverse stock split of its Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), at a ratio of 1-for-10 (the "Reverse Stock Split"). Accordingly, on October 22, 2020, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment (the "Certificate of Amendment") to the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect the Reverse Stock Split, which will be effective at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on Friday, October 30, 2020 (the "Effective Time").
Pursuant to the Certificate of Amendment, effective as of 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on Friday, October 30, 2020 (the "Effective Time"), each ten (10) shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding, immediately prior to the Effective Time, will automatically and without any action on the part of the respective holders thereof, be combined and converted into one (1) share of Class A Common Stock. A reverse stock split of the Class B Common Stock will be implemented simultaneously at the same ratio. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, any stockholder who would have been entitled to receive a fractional share of Class A Common Stock as a result of the Reverse Stock Split will receive cash payments in lieu of such fractional shares (without interest and subject to backup withholding and applicable withholding taxes).
The Class A Common Stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") at the market open on Monday, November 2, 2020. The Class A Common Stock will have a new CUSIP number, 58503T205, although the trading symbol for the Class A Common Stock will remain "MDLY".
As previously disclosed, the Reverse Stock Split is intended to bring the Company into compliance with the $1.00 minimum average closing share price requirement (the "Minimum Share Price Requirement") for continued listing on the NYSE. The Company will regain compliance with the Minimum Share Price Requirement if the price per share of Common Stock promptly exceeds $1.00 per share and remains above that level for at least the following 30 trading days.
In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, the Company filed another Certificate of Amendment which implements the Authorized Share Reduction simultaneously with the Reverse Stock Split. Also approved by the Company's stockholders at the Annual Meeting, the Authorized Share Reduction implements a reduction in the number of authorized shares of all classes of the Company's capital stock, including a reducing the number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock from 3,000,000,000 shares to 5,000,000 shares.
