MONTREAL, July 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ - Peak Fintech Group Inc. (CSE: PKK) (OTCQX: PKKFF) ("Peak" or the "Company"), an innovative Fintech service provider to the Chinese commercial lending sector, today announced that effective July 27, 2021 all of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company ("Common Shares") will be consolidated on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation Common Share for each two (2) pre-consolidation Common Shares (the "Consolidation").
The Consolidation is done specifically to allow the Company to meet the minimum share price criteria set out by the NASDAQ stock exchange (the "NASDAQ") in order to be listed on the senior exchange. The minimum share price is the only remaining criteria to be met by Peak following the listing application filed by the Company earlier this year. Peak plans to announce the effective date on which its Common Shares are expected to begin trading on the NASDAQ in the coming weeks.
Following the closing of the Company's recent prospectus financing and as of the date of the present news release, the 160,960,341 Common Shares that would have otherwise been issued and outstanding will be reduced to 80,480,171 Common Shares on a post-Consolidation basis.
The shareholders of the Company approved the Consolidation at a meeting held on February 16, 2021, and its directors approved the Consolidation ratio by written resolution dated July 20, 2021.
The Company's name will remain unchanged following the Consolidation. However, the Company plans to officially change its name to Tenet Fintech Group Inc. later this year following the listing of its Common Shares on the NASDAQ, which would then be expected to trade under the symbol "TNT".
