Robin Energy Ltd. (NASDAQ: RBNE) announced a one‑for‑five reverse stock split of its common shares, effective 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on December 23, 2025. The split will consolidate every five shares into one, reducing the total number of outstanding shares from roughly 14 million to about 2.8 million. The company will keep the same par value of $0.001 per share, and fractional shares will be paid in cash based on the closing price on the effective date.
The reverse split is intended to lift the share price and improve liquidity, a move that also helps the company meet Nasdaq’s minimum bid‑price requirement. Robin Energy’s stock had fallen 90% over the past year, trading at $0.83 on December 22, 2025, and was 97% below its 52‑week high of $24.65. The split is therefore a strategic step to avoid potential delisting and to signal confidence in the company’s long‑term prospects.
Fractional shareholders will receive cash payments calculated from the closing price on December 23, 2025. The company’s CUSIP is Y73118 112, and the split will take effect at the close of trading on December 24, 2025, when shares begin trading on a split‑adjusted basis on Nasdaq Capital Market.
The announcement was signed by Chairman and CEO Petros Panagiotidis, who said the reverse split “strengthens our market presence and supports liquidity for our investors.” The market reacted negatively, with the stock falling 9.7% on the day of the announcement, reflecting investor concerns about dilution and the underlying weakness that prompted the split.
Robin Energy operates a small fleet of three vessels—two LPG carriers and one Handysize tanker—transporting petrochemical gases and refined petroleum products worldwide. The company has recently raised capital, including a $5.1 million securities purchase agreement and a $4 million offering in June 2025, and it has launched a $1 million share‑repurchase program. These actions underscore the company’s need for liquidity and capital to support operations and fleet maintenance.
The reverse split signals that Robin Energy is taking steps to maintain its Nasdaq listing and improve liquidity, but it also highlights the company’s ongoing financial challenges. Investors should watch future earnings releases and guidance for indications of whether the company can reverse its declining share price trend and achieve sustainable growth.
