WeWork moves ahead with 1-for-40 reverse stock split to maintain NYSE listing

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 14:17:29 GMT

WeWork moves ahead with 1-for-40 reverse stock split to maintain NYSE listing WeWork is moving forward with a 1-for-40 reverse stock split in a bid to maintain its listing on the New York Stock Exchange. The NYSE issued a notice to the workspace-sharing company in the spring after shares closed below an average of $1 over a 30-day trading span. The value of company shares have plunged since their flashy debut in 2021 and tumbled 14% before the opening bell Friday, to 13 cents apiece.Earlier this month WeWork warned there was “substantial doubt” about the New York company’s “ability to continue as a going concern” — which is accounting-speak for having the resources needed to operate and stay in business. WeWork pointed to increased member churn, financial losses and the need for cash, among other factors, over the next year.After the split, every 40 shares held by an investor will become a single share. WeWork Inc. said Friday that the reverse stock split will be effective on Sept. 1. Its Class A stock will start trading on a post-split basis at the market op...

Liverpool signs Japan midfielder Wataru Endo from Stuttgart LIVERPOOL, England (AP) — Liverpool signed Japan midfielder Wataru Endo from German club Stuttgart on Friday.The 30-year-old Endo was in the last year of his contract at Stuttgart, where he was the captain. Endo played in all four of Japan’s games at the World Cup last year.“He was always on my list, just usually we don’t sign players of this age group,” Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp said. “He is obviously a top fit and we will have a lot of fun with him. I’m really sure he can help us immediately, which is super-cool because the season already started.”The signing comes after Liverpool missed out on another defensive midfielder, Moisés Caicedo, who opted for Chelsea instead.Endo is a defensive midfielder who can also play in the center of defense. He had been at Stuttgart since 2020 and scored five goals in 33 Bundesliga games last season as the club narrowly avoided relegation.___AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccerSource
