Item 8.01. Other Events.
On July 9, 2025, after receiving the stockholder approval of the Reverse Stock Split Proposal, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Company approved the implementation of a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock at a ratio of 1-for-20. The reverse stock split is intended to increase the market price per share of the Company’s common stock and help the Company regain compliance with the minimum price criteria for continued listing on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”).
As previously reported, on February 19, 2025, the Company received notice from the NYSE that it was no longer in compliance with the continued listing requirements of the NYSE because the average closing price for its common stock had fallen below $1.00 per share over a consecutive 30 trading-day period, which is the minimum price criteria required to maintain listing on the NYSE under Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. The Company expects that the reverse stock split will be effective as of 12:01 am Eastern Time, on July 28, 2025 (the “Effective Time”) and that the Company’s common stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on the NYSE at the market open on July 28, 2025.
At the Effective Time, every twenty (20) issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock will be converted into one share of the Company’s common stock. Once effective, the reverse stock split will reduce the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock from approximately 467,118,934 to approximately 23,355,946 shares. When the reverse stock split becomes effective, the aggregate number of equity-based awards that remain available to be granted under the Company’s equity incentive plans will be decreased proportionately and proportionate adjustments will be made to the per share exercise price, share-based vesting criteria and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options, as applicable, as well as to the number of shares that would be owned upon vesting and settlement of restricted stock units and other equity-based awards, as applicable. Additionally, when the reverse stock split becomes effective, the Company’s outstanding warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock will be proportionately adjusted in accordance with the respective warrant agreements to reflect the reverse stock split, including the number of shares purchasable upon exercise of such warrants and/or their exercise prices, and the conversion rate of the Company’s convertible notes will be proportionately adjusted in accordance with the indenture governing the convertible notes to reflect the reverse stock split. Each stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company will remain unchanged as a result of the reverse stock split, except to the extent that the reverse stock split would result in such stockholder owning a fractional share. No fractional shares shall be issued in connection with the reverse stock split, and any fractional shares resulting from the reverse stock split will be rounded down to the nearest whole share. Stockholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares will receive a cash payment in lieu of such fractional shares at a price equal to the fraction to which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by the closing price of the common stock, as reported by NYSE, on the last trading day prior to the Effective Time.
Stockholders who hold their shares in “street name” that is through a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, subject to each broker’s particular processes, and do not need to take any action in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders of record will be receiving information from Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent, regarding their stock ownership following the reverse stock split.
The reverse stock split will not modify any rights or preferences of the Company’s common stock. The trading symbol for the Company’s common stock will remain “CHPT.” The new CUSIP number for the Company’s common stock following the reverse stock split will be 15961R 303.
