On January 31, 2018, Harte Hanks, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Certificate of Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on October 4, 1993. The Amendment effects a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of all issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Common Stock”), and a contemporaneous reduction in the number of shares of authorized Common Stock from 50,000,000 shares to 25,000,000 shares. The Amendment was previously authorized at a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders on December 14, 2017, and the Company’s Board of Directors approved the ratio and timing of the reverse stock split on December 18, 2017. The Amendment will be effective for trading purposes at the market opening on February 1, 2018, at which time the Common Stock will begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange on a split-adjusted basis. The new CUSIP number for the Common Stock following the reverse stock split is 416196202. For additional information on this reverse stock split, refer to the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 2, 2017 and amended on November 7, 2017 and the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 19, 2017.
