LOS ANGELES, Jan. 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Crown Electrokinetics Corp. (NASDAQ: CRKN) ("Crown" or the "Company”), a leading provider of innovative technology infrastructure solutions that benefit communities and the environment, today announced its plan to implement a reverse split of its common stock at a ratio of 1-for-150 shares. The reverse stock split will be effective for marketplace purposes with the open of business on Thursday, January 30, 2025. Following the reverse stock split, Crown’s common stock will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “CRKN.” The new CUSIP number for the common stock following the reverse stock split will be 228339 503, reflecting the adjusted share structure.

The Company's Board of Directors approved the reverse stock split at a ratio of 1-for-150 shares on January 25, 2025, following approval for the action by Crown's stockholders at a special stockholders meeting on January 14, 2025.

Upon effectiveness of the reverse stock split, every 150 shares of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock will be automatically converted into one share of issued and outstanding common stock. Fractional shares resulting from the reverse stock split will not be issued; instead, fractional shares will be rounded up to the nearest whole share. The reverse stock split will apply uniformly to all stockholders and will not alter any stockholder's proportional ownership in the Company, except for the adjustments related to fractional shares.

“Completing this reverse stock split is a key step in strengthening Crown and positioning the company for long-term success,” said Doug Croxall, CEO and Chairman, Crown. “By consolidating our shares, we are taking a necessary step to maintain our Nasdaq listing, which is critical for our growth and credibility. Crown today is in a much stronger position compared to the past, with a healthy cash balance exceeding $25 million, growing revenues, and exciting opportunities to further expand our innovative solutions portfolio.”

“Our recent addition of Andy Mayer and his highly skilled team marks a transformative moment for Crown. Andy’s unparalleled expertise in the pipeline industry, coupled with his extensive experience in disaster rehabilitation, significantly strengthens our solutions offering and positions us to secure important agreements. As a long-time Los Angeles resident, I am especially proud of Crown’s potential to play a critical role in California’s recovery and rebuilding efforts following the devastating wildfires. We are confident that our expanded capabilities will open new doors, accelerate our growth, and solidify Crown’s place as a leader in delivering innovative infrastructure solutions,” concluded Mr. Croxall.
