Item 5.03.Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On November 20, 2023, NeuroMetrix, Inc. (the “Company”) filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to its Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to effect a one-time reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, at a ratio of 1-for-8 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The number of total authorized shares of common stock of the Company will remain at 25,000,000 shares. The Certificate of Amendment will become effective at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, after the close of trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market, on November 21, 2023 (the “Effective Time”). At the Effective Time, every 8 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock will be automatically converted into one share of common stock, without any change in the par value per share. In addition, proportionate adjustments will be made to the per-share exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding stock options, warrants, rights, and other convertible securities, and to the number of shares issued and issuable under the Company’s stock incentive plans. Any stockholder who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of common stock created as a result of the Reverse Stock Split will be entitled to receive a cash payment in lieu thereof equal to the fractional share to which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by the closing sales price of a share of common stock on November 21, 2023, as adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split.
Following the Reverse Stock Split, the shares of common stock will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “NURO.” The new CUSIP number for the common stock following the Reverse Stock Split will be 641255880.
The summary of the Certificate of Amendment contained herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01.Other Information.
On November 20, 2023, the Company issued a press release announcing the Reverse Stock Split. The press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
