WMIH Corp. (NASDAQ: WMIH) (“WMIH”) today announced the completion of its previously-announced 1-for-12 reverse stock split. The reverse stock split, which was authorized by WMIH’s board of directors on August 16, 2018, was approved by its stockholders on October 9, 2018. The reverse stock split reduces the number of shares of WMIH common stock outstanding from approximately 1,089,738,735 shares as of October 9, 2018, to approximately 90,811,562 shares outstanding after giving effect to the reverse stock split. Concurrently with the reverse stock split, WMIH also changed its name to Mr. Cooper Group Inc. (“Mr. Cooper”).

Mr. Cooper will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Stock Market (NASDAQ). Shares of common stock of Mr. Cooper will trade today, October 10, 2018, under the ticker symbol “WMIH” without giving effect to the reverse stock split. Shares of common stock of Mr. Cooper will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis tomorrow, October 11, 2018, with a new CUSIP number (62482R 107) under the ticker symbol “COOP”, replacing its former ticker symbol “WMIH”. As a result of the reverse stock split, the initial trading price of Mr. Cooper common stock is expected to proportionately increase immediately following the reverse stock split; however, other factors may adversely affect the price of our common stock, and the reverse stock split may not increase the trading price of our common stock.

“Today marks a new chapter for our business as we continue to build on our strong financial foundation with best-in-class servicing and originations for our more than three million customers and transaction-based services for our Xome clients. Our new name—Mr. Cooper Group Inc.—reflects the strategic position of the combined company following the merger of WMIH with Nationstar Mortgage,” said Jay Bray, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Mr. Cooper. “We are excited for the opportunities ahead to increase shareholder value and expect the completion of the reverse stock split to enhance the appeal of our common stock to the financial community, including institutional investors and the general investing public.”

Stockholders who hold their shares in brokerage accounts or in “street name” will not be required to take any action to effect the exchange of their shares. Stockholders of record as of October 10, 2018, who hold share certificates will receive instructions from Mr. Cooper’s transfer agent, Computershare, explaining the process for obtaining new post-split stock certificates. Computershare will act as the exchange agent for purposes of implementing the exchange of stock certificates.
