Bird Announces Suspended NYSE Trading, Will Begin Trading on the OTC Exchange Effective September 25, 2023 September 22, 2023 at 04:54 pm EDT Share Business is on Track with the Integration of Recently Acquired SpinCompany Intends to Appeal Determination Bird Global, Inc. (NYSE:BRDS) (“Bird” or the “Company”) a leader in environmentally friendly electric transportation, today announced it received notice from the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) that NYSE will suspend trading of, and commence proceedings to, delist shares of Bird’s Class A common stock, effective at the open of business eastern standard time on September 25, 2023. The determination was made in connection with Bird's non-compliance with an NYSE listing requirement necessitating a market cap of greater than $15 million over a consecutive 30-day period. The Company does not believe the current market cap is reflective of the intrinsic value of the business and intends to appeal this determination by the NYSE. If the Company is successful in its appeal, NYSE will resume trading the Company’s Class A common stock. In the interim, the Company will remain listed on the NYSE. Following the suspension of the Company's Class A common stock on NYSE, the Company’s Class A common stock intends to trade on the OTC exchange (“OTC”) operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. and will commence trading next week. For quotes or additional information on the OTC, please visit otcmarkets.com. Bird intends to continue to operate in strict compliance with public company SEC regulations and other NYSE listing requirements, including filing quarterly financial statements, having independently audited financials, and maintaining an independent Board of Directors with strict corporate governance rules and oversight committees. Beginning in early January 2023, Bird’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) initiated a multi-step plan to improve financial and operational performance. Since then, Bird management has implemented leadership and operational restructuring and carried out various cost-saving initiatives. “Each of these steps was foundational to the Company’s recent strategic acquisition of Spin, which we believe was both integral and pivotal to building out a plan to become cash flow positive and to generate more value for Bird’s stockholders in the long-term. In addition, it is our expectation that the Company’s strategic plan to increase stockholder value will enable it to meet NYSE listing standards in the future,” said John Bitove, Chair of the Board of Directors of the Company. “We firmly believe that BRDS current market cap does not reflect the intrinsic value of the Company. And while disappointing, this change in our listing status on the NYSE does not alter our commitment to our shareholders, our valued employees across Bird and Spin, our partners and the many global cities and institutions with which we work," said Michael Washinushi, Bird’s Interim CEO. “Our talented team and unwavering dedication to our mission of a more sustainable future are the cornerstones of our success, and they will continue to guide us. Bird’s fundamentals remain strong, and our vision for the future is as promising as ever. We believe the acquisition of Spin has made our prospects even stronger.” About Bird Bird, the largest micromobility operator in North America, is an electric vehicle company dedicated to bringing affordable, environmentally friendly transportation solutions such as e-scooters and e-bikes to communities across the world.
