Euroseas Ltd. Announces Completion of Reverse Stock Split
(firmenpresse) - MAROUSSI, ATHENS, GREECE -- (Marketwired) -- 07/23/15 -- Euroseas Ltd. (NASDAQ: ESEA) (the "Company"), an owner and operator of drybulk and container carrier vessels and a provider of seaborne transportation for drybulk and containerized cargoes, announces that it has completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split, effective at the close of trading on July 22, 2015. The Company''s common shares will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on July 23, 2015.
The reverse stock split was undertaken with the objective of meeting the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for listing the Company''s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Instead, the Company has issued one full share of the post-reverse stock split common stock to any shareholder who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the reverse stock split. Each common shareholder holds the same percentage of the outstanding common shares after the completion of the reverse stock split as that shareholder did immediately prior to the reverse stock split, except for minor adjustment due to the additional net share fraction that was issued as a result of the treatment of fractional shares. The reverse stock split was authorized by the Company''s shareholders on June 19, 2015.
