Agile Therapeutics Announces 1-For-50 Reverse Stock Split

PRINCETON, N.J., April 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Agile Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: AGRX) (“Agile”), a women's healthcare company, today announced that its board of directors approved a 1-for-50 reverse stock split, to be effective 4:00 p.m. on Monday, April 10, 2023. The Company’s common stock will open for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on Tuesday, April 11, 2023 on a split-adjusted basis under the current trading symbol "AGRX." The reverse stock split was approved by Agile’s stockholders on March 9, 2023, and is intended to increase the per share trading price of the Company's common stock to enable the Company to satisfy the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq.

The 1-for-50 reverse stock split will automatically convert 50 current shares of Agile’s common stock into one new share of common stock. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders who would otherwise hold a fractional share of Agile’s common stock will receive a cash payment in lieu thereof, at a price equal to the fraction to which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled, multiplied by the closing price of Agile’s common stock on Nasdaq on Monday, April 10, 2023. The reverse split will reduce the number of shares of outstanding common stock from approximately 46,605,053 shares to approximately 932,101 shares. Proportional adjustments also will be made to the exercise prices of Agile’s outstanding stock options and warrants, and to the number of shares issued and issuable under Agile’s stock incentive plan.

Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions (“Broadridge”) will act as the exchange agent for the reverse stock split. Stockholders holding their shares electronically in book-entry form are not required to take any action to receive post-split shares. Stockholders owning shares through a bank, broker or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, subject to brokers’ particular processes, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the reverse stock split. For those stockholders holding physical stock certificates, Broadridge will send instructions for exchanging those certificates for shares held electronically in book-entry form or for new certificates, in either case representing the post-split number of shares.

In connection with the reverse stock split, the Company's CUSIP number will change to 00847L308 as of 4:00 pm on Monday, April 10, 2023.
