Analysis · MVIS · Manufacturing
To lift its share price above Nasdaq's minimum bid threshold, MicroVision has finalized a 1-for-15 reverse stock split, effective August 1, 2026. The move slashes authorized shares from 510 million to 175 million, curbing future dilution headroom. While ownership percentages remain unchanged, the split is a vital step to avoid delisting after the stock tumbled to $0.31. The company also confirmed its transfer to the Nasdaq Capital Market—effective July 20, 2026—which offers more lenient listing standards. This action is part of a broader survival strategy that includes a $42 million ATM offering and a recent OEM development agreement.
