Nuvve (NASDAQ:NVVE) stock is falling on Thursday after the green energy technology company announced a 1-for-40 reverse stock split.
Nuvve notes that the reverse stock split will have it consolidating every 40 shares of NVVE into a single share. Doing so will take its outstanding shares from 49.9 million to 1.3 million shares.
The reverse split is set to go into effect after markets close on Friday. That will see NVVE stock start trading on a split-adjusted basis starting on Monday. The stock will also use the new 67079Y209 CUSIP number.
Nuvve points out that the number of authorized shares won’t be reduced after the reverse split. The company says that the number of warrants for NVVE stock will also remain the same post-split.
Why a Reverse Stock Split for NVVE?
Nuvve is enacting this reverse stock split to boost the price of shares. It’s doing this to regain compliance with the Nasdaq’s minimum bid price. As it is now, the company’s 10-cent closing price yesterday is well below the $1 minimum needed to remain on the exchange.
NVVE stock is down 30.8% on Thursday morning after announcing the reverse split. That comes alongside some 1.5 million shares changing hands. For comparison, its daily average trading volume is around 5.2 million shares.
