DCAR DropCar Inc

Item 8.01. Other Events

On December 19, 2019, DropCar, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“DropCar”), ABC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of DropCar (“Merger Sub”), and Ayro, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“AYRO”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other matters, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into AYRO, with AYRO continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of DropCar and the surviving corporation of the merger (the “Merger”). In connection with the Merger, DropCar filed a joint proxy and consent solicitation statement/prospectus on Form S-4 (File No. 333-236461) (the “Form S-4”), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 24, 2020.

The Form S-4 includes a proposal to approve an amendment to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation of DropCar to effect a reverse stock split with a ratio between 1-for-10 and 1-for-30 with respect to the issued and outstanding common stock of the combined company immediately following the Merger (the “Reverse Stock Split Proposal”). The ratio set forth in the Reverse Stock Split Proposal was based on the price of DropCar’s common stock at the time of the filing of the Form S-4 and reflected DropCar’s intent for the reverse stock split to increase the stock price of the combined company to at least $5.00 per share, as disclosed in the Form S-4.

On May 22, 2020, the closing price of DropCar’s common stock was $1.19 per share. Based on this closing price, the implementation of a reverse stock split within the range set forth in the Reverse Stock Split Proposal would have the effect of increasing the stock price of the combined company to above the $5.00 per share stock price contemplated in the Form S-4. Therefore, assuming the approval of the Reverse Stock Split Proposal by the stockholders of DropCar, DropCar intends to effect a 1-for-10 reverse stock split, the smallest permissible ratio pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split Proposal. Immediately following the reverse stock split, the combined company intends to issue a stock dividend of one share of common stock for each outstanding share of common stock of the combined company. However, if market conditions change prior to the anticipated closing of the Merger, the exact dividend ratio may change to give effect to such change in conditions. DropCar and Ayro intend for the collective effect of the reverse stock split and the stock dividend to result in a net effective reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of the combined company to achieve the approximate $5.00 per share stock price as contemplated in the Form S-4.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K may contain forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any expected future results, performance, or achievements.
