Snap Interactive Announces Completion of Reverse Stock Split

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / January 9, 2017 / Snap Interactive, Inc. (“SNAP,” or the “Company”) (OTCQB: STVI; STVID) (CUSIP: 83303W208) today announced that it has completed its previously announced 1-for-35 reverse stock split. The reverse stock split became effective at the close of regular trading hours on January 5, 2017 and SNAP’s stock began trading on a post-reverse stock split basis at the opening of regular trading hours on January 6, 2017. The stock split was effected by the Company as part of a broader and more proactive capital markets strategy, with the ultimate goal of uplisting to a national securities exchange.

Following the reverse stock split, SNAP’s common stock will continue to trade on the OTCQB market but its trading symbol (STVI) will have an added designation of “D” for a 20 business day period following the reverse stock split (STVID). After such 20 business day period, the symbol for SNAP’s common stock will revert to “STVI”. SNAP’s common stock also possesses a new CUSIP number (83303W208) following the reverse stock split.

As a result of the reverse stock split, every 35 shares of SNAP’s common stock were combined and reclassified into a single share of common stock and the number of shares of common stock that SNAP is authorized to issue was proportionally reduced from 500 million to approximately 14.3 million.

No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Instead, each fractional share to be issued to a SNAP stockholder was rounded up to the nearest whole share.

The company recently completed its merger with A.V.M. Software, Inc. (d/b/a Paltalk) (“Paltalk”). Management believes the combination of SNAP and Paltalk presents many opportunities to serve the unified database of more than 250 million users and to broaden the combined company’s reach even further. The company is excited to integrate the two businesses as well as focus on growth initiatives for both existing products and new opportunities.

SNAP’s transfer agent, Corporate Stock Transfer, Inc. (“CST”), is serving as exchange agent in connection with the reverse stock split. CST will send to the registered holders of SNAP’s common stock a letter of transmittal containing instructions on how to exchange stock certificates representing pre-reverse stock split shares of SNAP’s common stock for certificates that have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split. Stockholders owning shares through a broker or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, subject to brokers’ particular processes, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the reverse stock split.
