IRVINE, Calif., March 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Interlink Electronics, Inc. (Nasdaq: LINK) (the “Company”), a world-leading provider of sensors and printed electronic solutions that support a wide range of applications, including Human-Machine Interface (“HMI”) devices and IoT solutions, today announced that it will issue a 50% common stock dividend on March 22, 2024 to its stockholders of record as of March 11, 2024 (the “Stock Dividend”).
The Stock Dividend 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 Stock Dividend results in a stockholder owning a fractional share. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Stock Dividend. Rather, stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share instead will become entitled to receive one (1) share in lieu thereof.
All convertible and exercisable securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the Stock Dividend will be appropriately adjusted by multiplying the number of shares of common stock into which the convertible or exercisable securities are convertible or exercisable by 1.5 and dividing the conversion or exercise price thereof by 1.5.
Upon completion of the dividend, the outstanding shares of Interlink’s common stock will increase to approximately 9,860,355, based on the number of shares outstanding as of March 11, 2024.
Stockholders with shares in brokerage accounts should direct any questions concerning the Stock Dividend to their broker; all other stockholders may direct questions to the Company’s transfer agent, Computershare, at (800) 962-4284.
