American Bitcoin Announces Effective Date of Reverse Stock Split

American Bitcoin’s Class A common stock expected to begin trading on a reverse split-adjusted basis on July 6, 2026

MIAMI, FL, July 1, 2026 – American Bitcoin Corp. (Nasdaq: ABTC) (“American Bitcoin” or the “Company”), a Bitcoin accumulation platform focused on building America’s Bitcoin infrastructure backbone, today announced that it expects a 1-for-15 reverse stock split of its common stock will be effective at 5:00 p.m. on July 2, 2026. The Company anticipates that its Class A common stock will begin trading on a reverse split-adjusted basis on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the same symbol (ABTC) when the market opens on July 6, 2026, with the new CUSIP number, 02462A 203.

As of the effective time of the reverse stock split, every 15 issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Class A common stock will be automatically reclassified into one issued and outstanding share of the Company’s Class A common stock and every 15 issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Class B common stock will be automatically reclassified into one issued and outstanding share of the Company’s Class B common stock, each subject to adjustment for fractional shares. There are no shares of the Company’s Class C common stock outstanding. This will reduce the number of shares issued from 1,092,295,800 shares, comprising 360,070,897 shares of Class A common stock, 732,224,903 shares of Class B common stock, and no shares of Class C common stock, to approximately 73 million shares, comprising approximately 24 million shares of Class A common stock, approximately 49 million shares of Class B common stock, and no shares of Class C common stock, subject to adjustment for fractional shares. The reverse stock split will not affect the number of authorized shares or the par value of each class of common stock. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split, and holders of common stock will receive a cash payment (without interest) from Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent, in lieu of any fractional shares.

Registered stockholders holding pre-split shares of the Company's common stock are not required to take any action to receive post-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. Stockholders holding shares of the Company's common stock in certificate form will receive a transmittal letter from the Company’s transfer agent with instructions as soon as practicable after the effective date.

The reverse stock split is primarily intended to increase the per share price of each class of the Company’s common stock, particularly its Class A common stock, which is currently trading on Nasdaq, to maintain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for maintaining its Nasdaq listing. The reverse stock split was approved by the Company’s stockholders at its annual meeting of stockholders held on June 22, 2026. After this meeting, the Company’s board of directors approved the reverse stock split at a ratio of 1-for-15. Additional information about the reverse stock split can be found in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 27, 2026, which is available free of charge at the SEC’s website, www.sec.gov, and on the Company’s website at www.abtc.com.
