TPET Trio Petroleum Corp

Trio Petroleum Corp. (NYSE American: “TPET”, “Trio” or the “Company”), a California-based oil and gas company, today announced that it will proceed with a 1-for-20 reverse stock split (“Reverse Stock Split”) of its outstanding shares of common stock following approval by its board of directors. The 1-for-20 ratio is within the range approved by stockholders at a special meeting of stockholders held on August 15, 2024.

The Reverse Stock Split is expected to become effective at 5 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on November 14, 2024 and the Company’s common stock is expected to begin trading on a post-split basis at the market open on November 15, 2024 under the same symbol (TPET) with the new CUSIP number 89669L207.

When the Reverse Stock Split is effective, every 20 shares of the Company's common stock issued and outstanding will be combined automatically into 1 share of common stock. The Reverse Stock Split will apply equally to all outstanding shares of common stock, and each stockholder will hold the same percentage of common stock outstanding immediately following the Reverse Stock Split, except for adjustments that may result from the treatment of fractional shares. Fractional shares will be rounded up to the next whole share, and proportionate adjustments will be made to equity plans. Additionally, all equity awards outstanding immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split will be proportionately adjusted.

VStock Transfer, LLC is acting as the exchange agent and transfer agent for the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders holding their shares electronically in book-entry form are not required to take any action to receive post-split shares. The Company does not have any outstanding certificated shares. Stockholders owning shares through a bank, broker or other nominee will have their positions adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.

Additional information about the Reverse Stock Split can be found in the Company’s definitive proxy statement (Form DEF 14A) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 1, 2024 and Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 4, 2024.
