LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Surf Air Mobility Inc. (“Surf Air Mobility” or “SAM”), a regional air travel company aiming to sustainably connect the world’s communities, today announced that a reference price of $20.00 per share of Common Stock has been established by the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) for the expected listing of SAM’s Common Stock on the NYSE on Thursday, July 27, 2023. The number of shares of SAM’s Common Stock outstanding upon listing will depend on the actual opening trading price per share on the listing date. Assuming that the opening trading price per share on the listing date equals the reference price of $20.00, SAM would have approximately 49.8 million shares of Common Stock outstanding upon listing.1 The reference price is not an offering price. The opening trading price will be determined by buy and sell orders collected by the NYSE from broker-dealers. The reference price may differ materially from the actual opening trading price per share on the NYSE.
For illustrative purposes only, the table below shows the total number of shares of Common Stock expected to be outstanding at various opening trading prices.
