Sangoma Technologies Corporation (“
Sangoma” or the
“
Company”) (TSX: STC), a trusted leader in
delivering cloud-based Communications-as-a-Service
(“
CaaS”) solutions, is pleased to announce that,
as previously authorized by its shareholders, the Company is
implementing a consolidation (reverse stock split) of its
outstanding Common Shares on the basis of one new Common Share for
every seven currently outstanding Common Shares (the
“
Consolidation Ratio”).
The Consolidation Ratio was determined by
Sangoma’s board of directors in accordance with the parameters
authorized by the Company’s shareholders at the special meeting of
shareholders held on September 23, 2021. The consolidation took
effect on November 2, 2021 and the Common Shares are expected to
commence trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange on a
post-consolidation basis beginning at the open of markets on
November 8, 2021. Immediately prior to the consolidation there were
133,151,508 Common Shares issued and outstanding, and it is
expected that there will be 19,021,614 Common Shares issued and
outstanding following the consolidation, subject to rounding for
any fractional shares. Assuming the issuance of the Common Shares
comprising the Deferred Consideration and the Indemnification
Holdback Amount in accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement
relating to the acquisition of StarBlue Inc., as amended by the
Consolidation Ratio, it is expected that there will be 31,717,214
Common Shares issued and outstanding, subject to rounding for any
fractional shares. No fractional shares will be issued as a result
of the share consolidation and, in the case of a fractional
interest, the number of post-consolidation shares to be received by
a shareholder will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of
shares that such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive upon
the implementation of the share consolidation. By way of example,
if a shareholder held 100 pre-consolidation Common Shares, the
shareholder will hold 14 Common Shares on a post-consolidation
basis.
Registered shareholders holding share
certificates will be mailed a letter of transmittal advising of the
share consolidation and instructing them to surrender their share
certificates representing pre-consolidation Common Shares for
replacement certificates or a direct registration advice
representing their post-consolidation Common Shares. Until
surrendered for exchange, following the effective date of the
consolidation, which was November 2, 2021, each share certificate
formerly representing pre-consolidation Common Shares will be
deemed to represent the number of whole post-consolidation Common
Shares to which the holder is entitled as a result of the
consolidation.
Holders of Common Shares who hold uncertificated
shares (that is Common Shares held in book-entry form and not
represented by a physical share certificate), either as registered
holders or beneficial owners, will have their existing book-entry
account(s) electronically adjusted by Sangoma’s transfer agent or,
for beneficial shareholders, by their brokerage firms, banks,
trusts or other nominees that hold in street name for their
benefit. Such holders do not need to take any additional actions to
exchange their pre-consolidation Common Shares for
post-consolidation Common Shares. If you hold your Common Shares
with such a bank, broker or other nominee, and if you have
questions in this regard, you are encouraged to contact your
nominee.
