Item 7.01.

Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On March 2, 2016, the Company issued a press release announcing that its Board of Directors had approved a one-for-twenty reverse split of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company. The reverse stock split was approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on March 2, 2016. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference into this Item 7.01.

 

The Company expects that the reverse stock split will become effective as of 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on March 4, 2016 and expects that the reverse stock split will be effective for trading purposes upon the commencement of trading on March 7, 2016, at which point the Company’s Common Stock will begin trading on a split adjusted basis on The Nasdaq Capital Market. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. A holder of the old Common Stock who would have otherwise been entitled to a fractional share of the new Common Stock will be entitled to receive one whole share of the new Common Stock for such fractional share interest. Proportional adjustments will be made to the Company’s incentive plan reserve and to the Company’s outstanding stock options, restricted stock unit awards and warrants as well. After the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, stockholders will receive information from Computershare, the Company’s transfer agent, regarding the process for exchanging their shares of Common Stock.

 

The Company’s Board of Directors implemented the reverse stock split with the objective of regaining compliance with the minimum bid price listing maintenance requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market. The reverse split also will have the effect of increasing the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance by the Company.

 

The information contained in this Item 7.01 and in Exhibit 99.1 attached to this report is being furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
