| Item 8.01 – | Other Events |
On September 16, 2013, Perma-Fix Environmental Services, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Form 8-K announcing the results of its 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Meeting”) held on September 12, 2013, including the approval by the stockholders of a reverse stock split within a range of 1-for-2 to 1-for-7 and authorizing the Board of Directors, without further action of the stockholders, to amend the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to effect a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company and the shares of common stock of the Company currently subject to outstanding options at a ratio within the range of 1-for-2 to 1-for-7 at any time prior to November 8, 2013, with the exact ratio and effective date of the reverse stock split to be determined by the Board of Directors. The Form 8-K also announced the approval of the Board of Directors following the Meeting, of the ratio of the reverse stock split to be a 1-for-5 reverse stock split, with such reverse stock split to be effective October 14, 2013, upon filing of the certificate of amendment to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
The Board of Directors has been advised by NASDAQ that October 14, 2013, is not a good settlement date for the reverse stock split due to bank closures as a result of the Columbus Day holiday. Therefore, pursuant to the authority granted to the Board of Directors by the stockholders at the Meeting, the Board of Directors has approved a new effective date of October 15, 2013, for the 1-for-5 reverse stock split. The reverse stock split will be effective on October 15, 2013.
