FAQ

Why Bullish?

Reverse splits often lead to higher prices due to improved share structure. Historically, stocks like Tesla saw positive price momentum post-reverse splits.

How important is it?

The significant structural change to the ADS is likely to alter investor perception positively. Investors might view the restructuring as a move towards better valuation metrics.

Why Short Term?

While the split is set for 2025, its implications will materialize shortly after the announcement.

, /PRNewswire/ -- NaaS Technology Inc. (Nasdaq: NAAS) ("NaaS" or the "Company"), the first U.S.-listed EV charging service company in China, today announced that that it will change the ratio of its American Depositary Shares (the "ADSs") to its Class A ordinary shares (the "ADS Ratio"), par value US$0.01 per share, from the current ADS Ratio of one ADS to 200 Class A ordinary shares to a new ADS Ratio of one ADS to 800 Class A ordinary shares. The change in the ADS Ratio will become effective on April 28, 2025 (U.S. Eastern Time) ("Effective Date"). For the Company's ADS holders, the change in the ADS Ratio will have the same effect as a one-for-four reverse ADS split. Each ADS holder of record at the close of business on the Effective Date will be required to surrender and exchange every 4 existing ADSs then held for one new ADS. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the depositary bank for the Company's ADS program, will arrange for the exchange of the current ADSs for the new ones.  The Company's ADSs will continue to be traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol "NaaS." No fractional new ADSs will be issued in connection with the change in the ADS Ratio.  Instead, fractional entitlements to new ADSs will be aggregated and sold by the depositary bank and the net cash proceeds from the sale of the fractional ADS entitlements (after deduction of fees, taxes and expenses) will be distributed to the applicable ADS holders by the depositary bank.  The change in the ADS Ratio will have no impact on the Company's underlying Class A ordinary shares, and no Class A ordinary shares will be issued or cancelled in connection with the change in the ADS Ratio. As a result of the change in the ADS Ratio, the ADS trading price is expected to increase proportionally, although the Company can give no assurance that the ADS trading price after the change in the ADS Ratio will be proportionally equal to or greater than 4 times the ADS trading price before the change.
