SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., June 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RAPT Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: RAPT) (the “Company”), a clinical-stage immunology-based biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing and commercializing novel therapies for patients living with inflammatory and immunological diseases, today announced that a 1-for-8 reverse stock split of its outstanding shares of common stock will be effective at 11:59 pm Eastern Time June 16, 2025.

Following the reverse stock split, the Company’s common stock will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “RAPT” with the new CUSIP number 75382E 208. The Company’s common stock will begin trading on a reverse stock split-adjusted basis on June 17, 2025.

At the effective time of the reverse split, every eight issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock will automatically be combined into one issued and outstanding share of the Company’s common stock without any change in the par value per share. Fractional shares will not be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share will be entitled to receive a cash payment. The reverse stock split will affect all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder’s relative interest in the Company’s equity securities, except for any adjustments for fractional shares. The reverse stock split will not affect the absolute number of the Company’s authorized shares of common stock, which will remain at 500,000,000, but the total number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock available for future issuance will increase. In addition, proportionate adjustments will be made to the number of shares underlying, and the exercise or conversion prices of, the Company’s outstanding pre-funded warrants and stock options, and to the number of shares of common stock issuable under the Company’s equity incentive plans.

The reverse stock split will reduce the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock from approximately 132.3 million to approximately 16.5 million.
