REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., Aug. 21, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iPass Inc. (NASDAQ:IPAS), a leading provider of global mobile connectivity, today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock as the next ongoing step in remediating the delisting notice it received on September 15, 2017 from Nasdaq.

The 1-for-10 reverse stock split will be effective upon the filing and effectiveness of a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Restated Certification of Incorporation after the market closes on August 22, 2018.  iPass’ common stock will begin trading on a split adjusted basis when the market opens on August 23, 2018.  The reverse split will also reduce the authorized number of shares of the Company’s common stock in the same ratio of 1-for-10.

At iPass’ 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 13, 2018, stockholders granted authority to the iPass Board of Directors, at its discretion, to determine whether to effectuate a reverse stock split at a ratio of between 1-for-5 to 1-for-10.

iPass’ shares of common stock will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol IPAS.  The new CUSIP number, post reverse split, is 46261V306.

Upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, every 10 shares of iPass’ issued and outstanding common stock will automatically be converted into one share of common stock.  No fractional shares will be issued if, as a result of the reverse stock split, a stockholder would otherwise become entitled to a fractional share.  Instead, each stockholder will be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the fair value of the fractional share to which such holder would otherwise be entitled. The fair value will be based upon the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on August 23, 2018.   Computershare Trust Company N.A., iPass’ transfer agent, will act as the exchange agent for the reverse stock split.
