SEC Filing
DownloadOn July 9, 2024, HOOKIPA Pharma Inc. (the “Company”) filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of amendment to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”) to effect the previously disclosed 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Reverse Stock Split became effective at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on July 9, 2024 (the “Effective Time”).
The Charter Amendment provides that, at the Effective Time, every 10 issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock were automatically combined into one issued and outstanding share of common stock. The par value per share of the common stock remained unchanged at $0.0001. Fractional shares were not issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who were otherwise entitled to receive a fractional share received a proportional cash payment. The Reverse Stock Split affected all stockholders uniformly and did not alter any stockholder’s relative interest in the Company’s equity securities, except for any adjustments for fractional shares. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, proportionate adjustments were made to the conversion ratio for the Company’s Class A Common Stock and the conversion prices of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock. Proportionate adjustments were also made to the number of shares underlying, and the exercise or conversion prices of, the Company’s outstanding stock options and to the number of shares of common stock issuable under the Company’s equity incentive plans. The Reverse Stock Split proportionately reduced the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock from 400,000,000 to 40,000,000.
As a result of the Reverse Stock Split and immediately following the Effective Time, the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock will be adjusted from approximately 96.6 million shares to approximately 9.7 million shares.
