NEW YORK — (BUSINESS WIRE) — June 16, 2023 — Shapeways Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SHPW) (“Shapeways” or the “Company”), a leader in the large and fast-growing digital manufacturing industry, announced today that its Board of Directors approved a 1-for-8 reverse stock split of its common stock that will become effective at 4:01 p.m. Eastern Time on June 22, 2023 (the “Effective Time”). The Company’s common stock is expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) when the markets open on June 23, 2023, under the existing trading symbol “SHPW” and new CUSIP number 81947T201.

The reverse stock split was approved by the Company’s stockholders at its 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, held on June 15, 2023, with the final ratio determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company will file an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to implement the reverse stock split as of the Effective Time. The primary goal of the reverse stock split is to increase the per share market price of the Company’s common stock to meet the minimum $1.00 average closing price requirement for continued listing on the NYSE.

At the Effective Time, every eight issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock will be converted automatically into one share of the Company’s common stock without any change in the par value per share. Once effective, the reverse stock split will reduce the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding from approximately 50.9 million to approximately 6.4 million. The reverse stock split will not reduce the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock.

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Instead, each stockholder will be entitled to receive a cash payment in lieu thereof at a price equal to the fraction of one share to which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE on June 22, 2023. The reverse stock split will affect all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder’s percentage interest in the Company’s equity, except to the extent that the reverse stock split would result in any stockholders receiving fractional shares. In addition, the terms of all outstanding options, warrants, and restricted stock units are being proportionately adjusted, in accordance with the terms of the applicable agreement.

The Company currently has warrants listed to purchase a total of 18,410,000 shares of common stock, with each whole warrant being exercisable for one share of common stock at $11.50 per share. Upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, every 8 shares of common stock that may be purchased pursuant to the warrants immediately prior to the reverse stock split will represent one share of common stock that may be purchased pursuant to such warrants immediately following the reverse stock split. Correspondingly, the exercise price per share of common stock attributable to such warrants immediately prior to the reverse stock split will be proportionately increased, such that the warrant price immediately following the reverse stock split will be $92.00, which equals the product of 8 multiplied by $11.50, the exercise price per share immediately prior to the reverse stock split. The number of shares of common stock subject to the warrants will be proportionately decreased by 8 times, to an aggregate of 2,301,250 shares. The terms of Shapeways’ outstanding warrants do not permit issuance of fractional shares upon exercise of such warrants. Instead, the number of shares issuable shall be rounded up or down to the nearest whole number upon exercise of the warrants. The redemption trigger price of the warrants will also be correspondingly proportionately increased, such that the redemption trigger price immediately following the reverse stock split will be $144, which equals the product of 8 multiplied by $18.00, the redemption trigger price immediately prior to the reverse stock split.

Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company is acting as transfer and exchange agent for the reverse stock split, and is also the Company’s warrant agent. Registered stockholders who hold shares of the Company’s common stock are not required to take any action to receive post-reverse split shares. Stockholders owning shares via a broker, bank, trust or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, subject to such broker's particular processes, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the reverse stock split.

Additional information regarding the reverse stock split can be found in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 1, 2023, as supplemented on May 15, 2023, which is available free of charge on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and on the Company’s website at https://www.shapeways.com.
