Analysis
Nuwellis has finalized a 1-for-35 reverse stock split, effective June 25, 2026, with split-adjusted trading beginning June 26, 2026. This action is critical for the company to increase its share price above Nasdaq's minimum bid requirement, especially given its current stock price of $0.125 and its history of 'going concern' warnings and recent highly dilutive offerings. Failure to execute this split could lead to delisting, which would severely impact liquidity and investor confidence.
