-Shares Expected to Begin Trading on a Split-Adjusted Basis on June 12, 2025 LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--System1, Inc. (NYSE: SST) (“System1” or the “Company”), an omnichannel customer acquisition marketing platform, today announced that its board of directors has approved a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of its Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”) and Class C Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class C Common Stock”, and together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”) at a ratio of 1-for-10. Stockholders approved a proposal to allow the board of directors, in its discretion, to effect the Reverse Stock Split at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 10, 2025, with the final ratio determined by the Company’s board of directors. The Reverse Stock Split is expected to become effective at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on June 11, 2025 (the “Effective Time”). Shares of System1 Class A Common Stock are expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) on June 12, 2025. Shares of the Class A Common Stock will continue to trade under the symbol “SST” and the new CUSIP number will be 87200P 208. Warrant Adjustments and Trading Information The CUSIP for the Company’s redeemable warrants will remain unchanged. However, under the terms of the applicable warrant agreement, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable on exercise of each warrant will be proportionately decreased. Specifically, following effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, every 10 shares of Class A Common Stock that may be purchased pursuant to the exercise of redeemable warrants now represents one (1) share of Class A Common Stock that may be purchased pursuant to such warrants. Accordingly, every 10 warrants will be exercisable for one share of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $115.00 per share of Class A Common Stock. Impact on Common Stock The Company will file an amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to implement the Reverse Stock Split as of the Effective Time. The Reverse Stock Split is intended to, among other things, increase the per share trading price of the Class A Common Stock in order to satisfy the closing price requirements for continued listing on the NYSE. At the Effective Time of the Reverse Stock Split, every 10 shares of Common Stock outstanding and held of record by each stockholder of the Company, including treasury shares, will be automatically reclassified into one (1) new share of Common Stock. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, proportionate adjustments will also be made to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying System1’s outstanding equity awards and the number of shares issuable under System1’s equity incentive plans and existing agreements, as well as the exercise price and/or any strike price, as applicable. The Reverse Stock Split has no effect on the par value of the Company’s Common Stock or authorized shares of any class of Common Stock. The Reverse Stock Split will affect all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder’s percentage interest in the Company’s equity (and the proportional voting power will remain unchanged), except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split results in some stockholders receiving cash in lieu of fractional shares. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, each holder of Class A Common Stock will be entitled to receive a cash payment in lieu thereof at a price equal to the fraction of one share to which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by the closing price per share of Class A Common Stock on the NYSE on June 11, 2025. The terms of System1’s outstanding warrants do not permit issuance of fractional shares upon exercise of such warrants. Instead, the number of shares issuable shall be rounded down upon exercise of the warrants. Shareholder Information and Transfer Agent Details Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company is acting as transfer and exchange agent for the Reverse Stock Split. Registered stockholders who hold shares of Common Stock are not required to take any action to receive split-adjusted shares. Stockholders who own shares via a broker, bank, trust or other nominee organization will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split, subject to such organization’s particular processes, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.
