Item 8.01 Other Events.
On June 15, 2021, Obalon Therapeutics, Inc. (“Obalon”) announced the anticipated closing of the merger pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated January 19, 2021, by and among Obalon, ReShape Lifesciences Inc. (“ReShape”), and Optimus Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Obalon (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into ReShape with ReShape surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Obalon (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, Obalon will be renamed “ReShape Lifesciences Inc.” (the “Combined Company”) and the shares of common stock of the Combined Company are expected to commence trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market on June 16, 2021 under the ticker symbol, RSLS. Immediately prior to the closing of the merger, Obalon will effect a 1-for-3 reverse stock split of its common stock.
A copy of the press release announcing the anticipated closing is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
The Nasdaq Stock Market approved the Combined Company’s listing application subject to the following conditions: (1) the Combined Company must have all financing transactions approved, in advance, by its independent directors, either acting as a group or by a committee comprised of only independent directors (e.g., the audit committee) and (2) if the Combined Company is late in filing a required Listing of Additional Shares (LAS) notification form, it will be subject to immediate delisting.
At a special meeting of Obalon’s stockholders on May 25, 2021, Obalon’s stockholders approved the issuance of shares of Obalon’s common stock to the stockholders of ReShape and an amendment to Obalon’s certificate of incorporation to effect the reverse stock split. The joint proxy statement/prospectus filed with the SEC included important information with respect to the Merger, including risks related to the Combined Company, including that Obalon and ReShape have operated with a loss and negative cash flows for the entirety of their existence and it is expected the Combined Company will have to raise significant capital in the future that could be dilutive to stockholders of the Combined Company. Obalon stockholders should carefully consider the risk factors included there with respect to the Combined Company.
