 EX-99.1 2 ea0200738ex99-1_chinajojo.htm PRESS RELEASE DATED FEBRUARY 27, 2024, ANNOUNCING THE COMPANY WILL EFFECT ITS 1-FOR-20 REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

Exhibit 99.1

 

China Jo-Jo Drugstores, Inc. Announces 1-for-20 Reverse Stock Split

 

HANGZHOU, China, February 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ – China Jo-Jo Drugstores, Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CJJD), a Cayman Islands exempted company, reported that it expects to implement a 1-for-20 reverse stock split on its ordinary shares (“Ordinary Shares”) effective Friday, March 1, 2024, with trading to begin on a split-adjusted basis at the market open on that day. Trading in the Ordinary Shares will continue on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “CJJD”. The new CUSIP number for the Ordinary Shares following the reverse stock split is G2124G 120.

 

Upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, every 20 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, par value $0.012 per share, will automatically be converted into one issued and outstanding Ordinary Share, par value $0.24 per share. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the reverse stock split. Instead, any fractional shares that would have resulted from the split will be rounded up to the next whole number. The reverse stock split affects all shareholders uniformly and will not alter any shareholder’s percentage interest in the Company’s outstanding Ordinary Shares, except for adjustments that may result from the treatment of fractional shares.

 

The reverse stock split at a ratio of 1-for-20 shares was approved by the Company’s board of directors and its shareholders. The Company is to file a Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association with the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies effective March 1, 2024.
