Analysis · DFLI · Manufacturing
To push its share price back above the $1.00 Nasdaq minimum bid requirement, Dragonfly Energy is executing a 1-for-8 reverse stock split effective October 12, 2026. The company received a delisting notice in August 2026 for failing the minimum stockholders' equity requirement, and this reverse split is a direct response to the listing pressure. The split reduces authorized shares from 400 million to 50 million, and each stockholder's share count will be divided by eight. This is a survival move — the company is fighting to stay listed on Nasdaq, and the reverse split is the primary tool available to fix the bid price deficiency.
