Frontier Communications Board Will Set Reverse Stock Split Ratio at 1-for-15
NORWALK, Conn., May 2, 2017 Frontier Communications Corporation (NASDAQ: FTR) announced today that its Board of Directors has made a determination that it will set the reverse stock split ratio at 1-for-15 if stockholders approve the reverse stock split proposal that is now before them and, following such approval, the Board decides to proceed with the reverse stock split. The Board made its determination after considering a number of factors, including the recommendation of the Companys financial advisor, target pricing, and feedback from stockholders and commentators. In addition to the reverse stock split, the proposal before Frontier stockholders would reduce the authorized number of shares of common stock from 1,750,000,000 to 175,000,000.
