FAQ

Why Neutral?

Reverse splits adjust trading metrics without changing underlying company value. Historically, similar biotech reverse splits have shown short-lived volatility, with no long-term intrinsic impact.

How important is it?

While significant from a compliance standpoint, reverse splits are largely cosmetic. The change does not alter intrinsic shareholder value, limiting its long-term impact.

Why Short Term?

The event may cause initial trading volatility and market reaction, but fundamentals remain intact over the long run.
