Shares of Rubico Inc. (RUBI) plunged more more than 25% on Tuesday to an all time low after the company announced a 1-for-10 reverse stock split aimed at regaining compliance with Nasdaq’s $1 minimum bid requirement.

Under the reverse split, every 10 existing shares will be combined into one new share, reducing the total outstanding shares from about 7.57 million to roughly 757,000. The consolidation is set to take effect at the opening of trading on April 9, 2026.

Second Consolidation This Year

On February 10, Rubico announced a 1-for-7.8 reverse stock split. The reverse share split became effective on February 12. The move reduced outstanding shares from about 3.98 million to roughly 510,000.

Soon after, Rubico signed an agreement to acquire a special purpose vehicle tied to a new 47,499 dwt MR product/chemical tanker with delivery expected in 2029.

The $4.2 million deal includes a shipbuilding contract with Guangzhou Shipyard International Company and is subject to financing arrangements. The vessel already has a secured seven-year charter with a major oil trader, with options to extend, representing potential revenue of about $75 million.
