Item 5.03. | Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year |
On August 8, 2007, at its annual meeting of stockholders, Pharsight Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Pharsight” or the “Company”) received stockholder approval of a proposal authorizing the Pharsight Board of Directors, in its discretion, to effect a reverse split of Pharsight’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a ratio within a range from one-for-three to one-for-six shares. On October 18, 2007, the Pharsight Board of Directors approved the implementation of a reverse stock split at a ratio of one-for-three shares (the “Reverse Stock Split”).
On November 13, 2007, Pharsight filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State to effect the Reverse Stock Split. A copy of the Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Pharsight is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1.
On November 13, 2007, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, the Reverse Stock Split became effective. At that time, each three (3) outstanding shares of Common Stock of Pharsight were combined into and automatically became one (1) outstanding share of Common Stock of Pharsight. The Reverse Stock Split reduced the number of outstanding shares of Pharsight’s Common Stock from approximately 28.2 million shares to approximately 9.4 million shares. No fractional shares were or will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Cash will be issued in lieu of fractional shares. Additional information about the Reverse Stock Split is available in Pharsight’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 29, 2007.
