(NASDAQ : SCYX) today announced that it has filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock, at a ratio of 1-for-10. The effective time of the reverse stock split will be 12:01 a.m. ET on July 17, 2020. SCYNEXIS common stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis commencing upon market open on July 17, 2020.\n At SCYNEXIS’s annual meeting of stockholders held on July 2, 2020, stockholders voted to approve a proposal to effect a reverse stock split and reduce the number of authorized shares of SCYNEXIS’s common stock from 250 million shares to 100 million shares.
