Completion of 1-for-8 Reverse Stock Split; Reduction in Authorized Shares of Class A Common Stock
On May 12, 2023, a Certificate of Amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended to date, of Alpine 4 Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware, took effect.
The Certificate of Amendment was filed to effect a one-for-eight (1-for-8) reverse split (the “Reverse Split”) of the shares of the Company’s the Class A, Class B, and Class C Common Stock, and to decrease the number of shares of Class A Common Stock from 295,000,000 shares to 200,000,000 shares (the “Class A Common Stock Decrease”).
The Reverse Split and the Class A Common Stock Decrease became effective on May 12, 2023. As a result of the Reverse Split, every 8 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Class A Common Stock automatically converted into one share of Class A Common Stock, without any change in the par value per share, and will begin trading on a post-split basis under the Company’s existing trading symbol, “ALPP,” when the market opens on May 15, 2023.
Additionally, every 8 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Class B Common Stock automatically converted into one share of Class B Common Stock, without any change in the par value per share, and every 8 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Class C Common Stock automatically converted into one share of Class C Common Stock, without any change in the par value per share.
The Reverse Split affected all holders of Class A, Class B, and Class C Common Stock uniformly and did not affect any common stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company, except for de minimis changes as a result of the elimination of fractional shares, as described below.
Holders of Class A, Class B, and Class C Common Stock were not required to take any action as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Their accounts were automatically adjusted to reflect the number of shares owned.
A total of 180,037,350 shares of Class A Common Stock were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Reverse Split, and approximately 22,504,669 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding immediately after the Reverse Split. No fractional shares will be outstanding following the Reverse Split. Any holder who would have received a fractional share of common stock will automatically be entitled to receive an additional fraction of a share of common stock to round up to the next whole share. The new CUSIP number for the common stock following the Reverse Split is 02083E204.
In addition, effective as of the same time as the Reverse Split, proportionate adjustments were made to all then-outstanding options and warrants with respect to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to such options or warrants and the exercise prices thereof.
The above description is a summary of the text of the Certificate of Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On May 12, 2023, the Company issued a press release announcing the completion of the Reverse Split. A copy of the press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
