23andMe Holding will undergo a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of its Class and Class B shares on Wednesday, Oct. 16.
The DNA-testing company is making the change after shareholders approved an amendment to combine outstanding shares of Class A and Class B shares at its annual stockholders meeting.
Every 20 shares of 23andMe's Class A and Class B shares issued and outstanding prior to Wednesday will be automatically combined into one share of Class A and Class B shares as a result.
This will reduce the company's Class A and Class B shares from about 350.3 million shares and 166.4 million shares, respectively, to about 17.5 million shares and 8.3 million shares, respectively.
