micromobility.com Inc. is also announcing the launch of its new brick-and-mortar retail-focused business, micromobility.com. The business intends to be based on a selection of physical stores, starting across the United States, in addition to an e-commerce site available from today (www.micromobility.com). To kick off the launch, micromobility.com Inc. plans to open its first physical store in SoHo, NYC, in the next 60 days. Together, the physical stores and the e-commerce will offer the best vehicles in the micromobility industry and related accessories from hand-picked partners.
According to Salvatore Palella, CEO of micromobility.com Inc., "We are excited to announce our rebranding to micromobility.com Inc. and the launch of our new retail-focused business. We aim to become the predominant brand for micromobility worldwide by offering the best vehicles, accessories, and services available in the industry."
Simultaneously with the rebranding, Helbiz, Inc. is announcing a reverse split of our class A common stock shares (“Common Stock”). The reverse stock split will be implemented with a ratio of 1-for-50 shares of our Common Stock, par value $0.00001. These changes will be effective upon the market open on Friday, March 31, 2023, meaning that each fifty (50) shares of pre-split Common Stock will represent one (1) post-split share of Common Stock.
In addition, due to our name change, micromobility.com Inc.’s shares of Class A Common Stock will start to trade under the new symbol “MCOM” and our warrants under the new symbol “MCOMW”. The new CUSIP number for the Common Stock following the reverse stock split will be 42309B402. As a result of the 50:1 reverse stock split, the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding will be reduced from 278,468,103 shares to approximately 5,569,362 shares and the total number of shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding will be reduced from 14,225,898 shares to 284,518 shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. All fractional shares will be rounded up to the nearest whole share. The reverse stock split does not affect the number of shares that the Company is authorized to issue.
“The reverse stock split is primarily intended to bring the Company into compliance with the Nasdaq Capital Market’s minimum bid price requirement and will make the bid price of our Common Stock more attractive to investors.” - said Salvatore Palella, CEO of micromobility.com Inc.
The reverse stock split will affect all issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. All outstanding options, restricted stock awards, warrants, convertible notes and other securities entitling their holders to purchase or otherwise receive shares of Common Stock will be adjusted as a result of the reverse stock split by decreasing the number of shares acquirable pursuant to the ratio of 50:1 and increasing the exercise or conversion price, as applicable, will be accordingly adjusted. The number of shares of Common Stock available to be awarded under the Company’s equity incentive plans will also be proportionately adjusted.
Immediately after the reverse stock split, each stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company and proportional voting power will remain virtually unchanged, except for minor changes and adjustments that will result from rounding fractional shares into whole shares, as applicable. The rights and privileges of the holders of shares of common stock will be substantially unaffected by the reverse stock split.
The Company’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), will serve as exchange agent for the reverse stock split. Continental will be affecting all of the post-split shares in paperless, “book-entry” form. All book-entry or other electronic positions representing issued and outstanding shares of our common stock will be automatically adjusted.
