Edgio Announces Effectiveness of Reverse Stock Split

PHOENIX--()--Edgio, Inc. (NASDAQ: EGIO) (the “Company”), the platform of choice for speed, scale, security, and simplicity at the edge, today announced that, on March 1, 2024, the Company will file a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”), effecting a one-for-forty (1-for-40) reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) (the “Certificate of Amendment”). The Certificate of Amendment was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and will become effective March 1, 2024.

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every forty (40) shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock will be converted into one (1) share of issued and outstanding common stock. The number of authorized shares remain unchanged. The Reverse Stock Split will be effected simultaneously for all of our outstanding Common Stock and the exchange ratio will be the same for all of our outstanding Common Stock. The Reverse Stock Split will affect all of our stockholders uniformly. The Reverse Stock Split will have no impact on stockholders’ proportionate equity interest or voting rights in the Company or the par value of the Common Stock, which remains unchanged, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split results in any of our stockholders receiving fair value in cash of any fractional shares they would otherwise be entitled to as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Following the Reverse Stock Split, stockholders will receive instructions from Edgio’s transfer agent on how a stockholder should surrender his or her certificate(s) representing shares of Common Stock to the transfer agent in exchange for certificates representing the appropriate number of whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock. Stockholders who hold their shares in brokerage accounts are not required to take any action to exchange their shares. The new CUSIP number for the Common Stock will be 53261M203.
