Vince Holding Corp. Announces Completion of its Reverse Stock Split
October 24 2017 - 7:30AM
Business Wire
Vince Holding Corp. (NYSE:VNCE), a leading global luxury apparel
and accessories brand (“Vince” or the “Company”), today announced
that at the close of business on October 23, 2017, it effected its
previously-announced, 1-for-10 reverse stock split (the “Reverse
Stock Split”). The Company’s common stock will begin trading on a
split-adjusted basis when the market opens on October 24, 2017.
Pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split, every 10 shares of Vince’s
issued and outstanding common stock were automatically converted
into one share of common stock. No fractional shares will be issued
if, as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, a stockholder would
otherwise have been entitled to a fractional share. Instead, each
stockholder is entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the
fraction of which such holder would otherwise have been entitled
multiplied by 0.48, which is the average closing price per share on
the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) for the five consecutive
trading days immediately preceding October 24, 2017.
Following the Reverse Stock Split, the number of outstanding
shares of Vince’s common stock was reduced by a factor of ten. The
number of authorized shares of common stock has also been reduced
from 250,000,000 to 100,000,000.
The Company’s shares of common stock will continue to trade on
the NYSE under the symbol “VNCE” but will trade under the new CUSIP
number 92719W207. The Reverse Stock Split was intended to increase
the market price per share of the Company’s common stock in order
to comply with the NYSE’s continued listing standards relating to
minimum price per share.
