Robo.ai Sets 1-for-25 Reverse Split to Regain Nasdaq Compliance
Nasdaq-listed Robo.ai Inc. will consolidate its ordinary shares on November 6, 2026 to meet the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement.
Updated on Nov. 3, 2026 in Investing
Robo.ai Inc., a UAE-based company listed on Nasdaq under AIIO, will implement a 1-for-25 reverse stock split effective November 6, 2026. The split applies to all classes of its ordinary shares and is intended to lift the share price above Nasdaq's $1.00 minimum bid requirement.
Why it matters
A reverse split reduces the number of shares outstanding while proportionately raising the per-share price, a step companies take when trading below exchange listing thresholds. The move keeps the stock listed on Nasdaq, though it does not add new capital to the company.
The filing lists 13,817,501 Class A and 222,116,290 Class B ordinary shares before the split, falling to 552,700 and 8,894,680 afterward at a 1-for-25 ratio, against Nasdaq's $1.00 minimum bid price. The filing does not disclose the current trading price or post-split market reaction.

Timeline
November 6, 2026: Reverse stock split takes effect at market open, with Class B trading adjusted accordingly.
Market Dynamics
The reverse split is a corrective measure under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), which requires listed companies to keep a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. Companies that fall below that threshold typically consolidate shares to regain compliance, a pattern that reflects exchange listing standards rather than a change in the company's underlying share count value.
Shareholders keep the same percentage ownership in Robo.ai after the split, but their share count falls by a factor of 25 and the per-share price is expected to rise proportionately. Fractional shares will be aggregated and sold where possible, with proceeds distributed to holders.
The takeaway
A reverse split changes the number of shares, not the value of a holder's stake, so investors should focus on the company's fundamentals rather than the post-split price alone. Checking how fractional-share proceeds and convertible note adjustments affect your position is worthwhile.
What happens next
The reverse stock split takes effect November 6, 2026, at market open, after which Class B shares will trade on the adjusted basis.
