Babylon Announces 1-for-25 Reverse Share Split

 

AUSTIN, Texas & LONDON, UK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Babylon (NYSE: BBLN) (“Babylon'') today announced that it is proceeding with a 1-for-25 reverse share split (the “Reverse Share Split") of its Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0000422573245084686 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”). The Reverse Share Split will become effective on December 15, 2022 (the “Effective Date”), and the Class A Ordinary Shares are expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis when the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) opens on December 16, 2022. Concurrent with the Reverse Share Split, the par value of the Class A Ordinary Shares will be changed to $0.0001 per share.

 

Following the Reverse Share Split, the number of issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares will be reduced from approximately 620 million to approximately 24.8 million shares. The Class A Ordinary Shares will continue to trade on the NYSE under the existing symbol, “BBLN.”

 

At Babylon’s Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, held on September 14, 2022, Babylon’s shareholders approved special resolutions to authorize the Board of Directors (the “Board”) to carry out the Reverse Share Split, determine a conversion ratio, between 15 and 25, reflecting the number of pre-split Class A Ordinary Shares that would be consolidated into one post-split Class A Ordinary Share, and approve related amendments to Babylon’s Amended and Restated Articles of Association (the “Articles Amendments”) to effect the Reverse Share Split. On November 7, 2022, the Board approved a conversion ratio of 1-for-25 and the Articles Amendments.

 

The Articles Amendments provide that Babylon’s share capital, upon effectiveness of the Reverse Share Split, will be US$38,800 divided into: 260,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares with a par value of US$0.0001 each; 124,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares with a par value of US$0.0001 each; and 4,000,000 Deferred Shares with a par value of US$0.0001 each. The Reverse Share Split will become effective upon the filing of the Articles Amendments with the Jersey Financial Services Commission on the Effective Date. No Class B Ordinary Shares or Deferred Shares are issued and outstanding.

 

The Reverse Share Split is intended to increase the per share trading price of the Class A Ordinary Shares to enable Babylon to regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement in Rule 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. Babylon believes that the Reverse Share Split will also benefit its shareholders because it will enable Babylon to reach additional institutional shareholders who impose minimum price requirements in their investment decisions.

 

No fractional Class A Ordinary Shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Share Split; any fractional shares will be rounded down. The Reverse Share Split will affect all shareholders uniformly and will not alter any shareholder's percentage interest in the Class A Ordinary Shares, except to the extent that the Reverse Share Split results in some shareholders experiencing the rounding down of a fractional share.

 

Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (“Computershare”), Babylon’s transfer agent, will act as the exchange agent for the Reverse Share Split. Shareholders with book-entry shares or who hold their Class A Ordinary Shares through a bank, broker or other nominee will not need to take any action. Shareholders of record will receive their post-Reverse Share Split Class A Ordinary Shares in book-entry and receive a statement from Computershare regarding their post-Reverse Share Split ownership of Class A Ordinary Shares.

 

 

 

 

Shareholders may contact Computershare’s Shareholder Services Department at 1-800-736-3001 (+1 (781) 575-3100 for international callers) with any questions.

 

About Babylon

 

At Babylon, our mission is to make quality healthcare accessible and affordable for every person on Earth. To this end we are building an integrated digital first primary care service that can manage population health at scale.

 

Founded in 2013, we are reengineering how people engage with their care at every step of the healthcare continuum. By flipping the model from reactive sick care to proactive healthcare through the devices people already own, we offer millions of people globally, ongoing, always-on care. And, we have already shown that in environments as diverse as the developed UK or developing Rwanda, urban New York or rural Missouri, for people of all ages, it is possible to achieve our mission by leveraging our highly scalable, digital-first platform combined with high quality, virtual clinical operations to provide integrated, personalized healthcare.

 

Today, we support a global patient network across 15 countries, and operate in 16 languages. In 2021 alone, Babylon helped a patient every 6 seconds, with approximately 5.2 million consultations and AI interactions. Importantly, this was achieved with a 93% user retention rate in our NHS GP at Hand service and 4 or 5-star ratings from more than 90% of our users across all of our geographies. We are working to demonstrate how our model of digital first integrated primary care can be applied to manage the health of the population in different settings across Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial value based care contracts in the US and our primary care services in the UK.

 

Babylon is also working with governments, health providers, employers and insurers across the globe to provide them with a new digital-first platform that any partner can use to deliver high-quality healthcare with lower costs and better outcomes.
