HAIFA, Israel - Biotechnology firm Pluri Inc. (NASDAQ: PLUR) (TASE: PLUR), known for its cell-based technology solutions, has announced a reverse share split of its common shares at a ratio of 1-for-8, set to take effect at the start of trading on April 1, 2024. The company's common shares will continue trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker "PLUR" but will be assigned a new CUSIP number, 72942G203.

The reverse share split will consolidate every eight existing common shares into one new share. Consequently, Pluri's current total of 41,816,959 common shares will be reduced to approximately 5,227,120 shares. Additionally, the authorized capital shares of the company will decrease from 300 million common shares to 37.5 million common shares.

As per the Nevada Revised Statutes Section 78.207, no fractional shares will be issued. Shareholders who would otherwise hold a fraction of a share will receive a rounded up whole share instead. The company's board of directors has approved this action in accordance with Nevada law, and no further shareholder approval is required since the changes will not adversely affect any other share class, and shareholders will not receive cash or scrip for fractional shares.

This reverse split is designed to not materially affect any shareholder's percentage of ownership or voting power in Pluri, except for minimal changes due to the treatment of fractional shares. All options, unvested shares, restricted stock units, and warrants will be adjusted accordingly.

Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, has been appointed as the exchange agent for the reverse split. Shareholders can contact Equiniti Trust Company, LLC at (718) 921-8200 for more information.

Pluri operates in the fields of regenerative medicine, food-tech, and agtech, and is exploring partnerships to expand the use of its 3D cell-based technology into other industries. The company aims to address global challenges such as medicine, climate change, food scarcity, and animal cruelty through its cell expansion system.
