The disclosure under Item 7.01 relating to the treatment of fractional shares is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On November 8, 2024, InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that the Company’s Board of Directors approved a proposal on October 29, 2024 to consolidate all of its issued and outstanding common shares, no par value (the “Common Shares”), on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation share for each twenty (20) pre-consolidation Common Shares (the “Consolidation”) in order to regain compliance with the minimum $1.00 bid price per share requirement, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). As a result of the Consolidation, each 20 of the Common Shares issued and outstanding, on a pre-Consolidation basis, will be automatically combined and converted into one share, post-Consolidation.
The exercise price and number of Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options, warrants or other convertible securities will be proportionately adjusted to reflect the Consolidation in accordance with the terms of such securities. Per the requirements of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), under which the Company is regulated, if fractional shares are to be converted into whole shares, each fractional share remaining after the completion of the Consolidation that is less than half of a share must be cancelled and each fractional share that is at least half of a share must be rounded up to one whole share, therefore, no fractional shares will be issued as a result of the Consolidation.
The Company anticipates that the Consolidation will be deemed effective by Nasdaq on November 14, 2024 and the Common Shares are expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis at the market open on November 15, 2024.
As a result of the Consolidation, the issued and outstanding Common Shares will be reduced from 14,361,550 to approximately 718,078 Common Shares on a non-diluted basis, and each of the Company’s shareholders will hold the same overall percentage of Common Shares outstanding immediately after the Consolidation as such shareholder held immediately prior to the Consolidation. Immediately following the Consolidation, the CUSIP number for the Common Shares will be 457637700.
The information set forth in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. The information set forth in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any other filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
The disclosure set forth under Item 7.01 is incorporated herein by reference, except the last paragraph under Item 7.01.
