Molecular Templates, Inc., (Nasdaq: MTEM) (the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel therapeutics for oncology with potent differentiated mechanisms of action, today announced that the Board and stockholders of the Company approved a 1-for-15 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock at a special meeting of the Company held on August 11, 2023. The reverse stock split will take effect after the close of trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on Friday, August 11, 2023. The Company’s common stock will open for trading under a new CUSIP number 608550 208 on The Nasdaq Capital Market on August 14, 2023, on a split-adjusted basis under the current ticker symbol "MTEM." The reverse stock split is intended to increase the per share trading price of the Company's common stock to enable the Company to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.

The 1-for-15 reverse stock split will automatically convert 15 current shares of the Company’s common stock into one share of common stock. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders who would otherwise hold a fractional share of the Company’s common stock following the reverse stock split will receive a cash payment in lieu thereof at a price equal to that fractional share to which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by the closing sale price of the common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as adjusted for the reverse stock split, on Friday, August 11, 2023.

The reverse split will reduce the number of shares of outstanding common stock from approximately 80,612,816 shares, the number of shares outstanding as of August 11, 2023, to approximately 5,374,187 shares. The total authorized number of shares will not be reduced. Proportional adjustments will also be made to the exercise and conversion prices of the Company’s outstanding stock options, warrants, and convertible securities, and to the number of shares issued and issuable under the Company’s stock incentive plans.

Stockholders holding their shares electronically in book-entry form are not required to take any action to receive post-split shares. Stockholders owning shares through a bank, 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. For those stockholders holding physical stock certificates, the Company’s transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., will send instructions for exchanging those certificates for shares held electronically in book-entry form or for new certificates, in either case representing the post-split number of shares, and any payments in cash in lieu of fractional shares, if applicable.
