GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Colo., April 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alpine Banks of Colorado (OTCQX: ALPIB) (“Alpine” or the “Company”), the holding company for Alpine Bank (the “Bank”), announced yesterday its shareholders voted to approve amended and restated Articles of Incorporation to affect the following actions, among other things:
The amended and restated Articles of Incorporation and the related stock split of the Class A common stock will become effective upon the effective date specified in the filing with the Colorado Secretary of State which Alpine anticipates will occur on May 1, 2025.
The 150-for-1 stock split of Alpine’s Class A common stock will be executed in the form of a stock dividend of 149 additional shares of Class A shares for every one Class A share issued and outstanding to shareholders as of the close of business on the record date of April 22, 2025. After the close of business on May 1, 2025, Alpine’s transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, will distribute to shareholders of record on the record date a book entry statement in lieu of a share certificate, which will represent the additional number of Class A shares to be received as a result of the stock split. Holders of Class A shares do not need to exchange their existing stock certificates if they hold shares in certificate form.
Alpine currently has approximately 52,150 Class A shares outstanding. After the stock split, the number of Class A shares outstanding will increase to approximately 7,822,500 shares. Alpine’s Class B common stock will not be affected by the stock split but will be affected by the amended and restated Articles of Incorporation as described above.
