Stock Sees Massive Gains Since Reverse Split

On January 30, Moolec confirmed that the Nasdaq Stock Market Hearings Panel approved its request for continued listing after the company regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirements following a 1-for-15 reverse share split, which took effect on Jan. 5, 2026. The stock has surged more than 145% since the reverse split became effective.

On February 13, the stock posted one of its biggest intraday gains of the year after the company reported strong results from the crushing phase of its U.S. GLASO safflower platform, confirming gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) levels of around 45%.

Moolec cultivated about 1,100 acres of engineered safflower across the United States during the 2025 season. Average yields were around 2,200 pounds per acre, up from around 1,400 pounds in 2024, exceeding the company’s internal expectations.
