Upcoming Stock Splits This Week (June 9 to June 13)
These are the upcoming stock splits for the week of June 9 to June 13, based on TipRanks' Stock Splits Calendar. A stock split is a corporate maneuver that increases the number of shares outstanding by issuing more shares to existing holders, all while keeping the company's total market value unchanged. This lowers the price per share, often making the stock more affordable and potentially more appealing to retail investors. Confident Investing Starts Here: In contrast, a reverse stock split reduces the number of shares by consolidating them, which raises the price per share without affecting the company's valuation. Companies typically turn to this strategy to meet stock exchange requirements – like Nasdaq's minimum price threshold – and avoid delisting. Whether intended to boost investor interest or maintain compliance with exchange rules, these adjustments often serve as key signals for traders tracking a company's strategic direction. Let's take a look at the upcoming stock splits for the week. Nektar Therapeutics (NKTR) – Nektar Therapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company developing novel drug candidates. Following stockholder approval on May 23, the company formalized a 1-for-15 reverse stock split. The split takes effect on June 8, with trading on a split‑adjusted basis beginning June 9. Fangdd Network Group (DUO) – China-based Fangdd is a technology-driven real estate platform. The company confirmed a 16-for-1 reverse share consolidation, effective June 9, aimed at boosting its share price and maintaining compliance with listing standards. Bone Biologics (BBLG) – Bone Biologics develops orthobiologic products for spinal fusion procedures. After gaining shareholder approval on May 30, the company filed for a 1-for-6 reverse stock split, which takes effect on June 10. The goal is to elevate its share price back into compliance with Nasdaq's minimum pricing rules and enhance its appeal to institutional investors. Cero Therapeutics Holdings (CERO) – Cero Therapeutics is a biotech firm developing engineered T-cell immunotherapies for cancer. Following shareholder approval in November and board action on December 25, it enacted a 1-for-100 reverse stock split effective on January 8, consolidating every 100 shares into one. The move aimed to boost the stock above $1.00 and secure compliance with Nasdaq's listing standards. Inuvo, Inc. (INUV) – Inuvo specializes in AI-powered marketing technologies and is gearing up for a 1-for-10 reverse stock split on June 10. The move is designed to lift its share price, restore Nasdaq compliance, and strengthen its financial foundation for future growth. O'Reilly Automotive (ORLY) – O'Reilly Automotive is a specialty retailer of automotive aftermarket parts and accessories. On March 13, the company declared a 15-for-1 forward stock split, with the distribution of additional shares set for June 9 and split-adjusted trading beginning June 10. SaverOne 2014 (SVRE) – Israel-based SaverOne develops driver safety systems that block mobile-device distractions in vehicles. The company executed a 1-for-3 reverse ADS split, effective June 11, adjusting its American Depositary Share ratio to strengthen its Nasdaq standing and enhance market appeal. China Natural Resources, Inc. (CHNR) – China Natural Resources is focused on mining exploration in Inner Mongolia and is working toward picking up Zimbabwe's Williams Minerals lithium mine for up to $1.75 billion. The company executed an 8-for-1 reverse stock split effective June 12 to meet Nasdaq's $1 minimum bid price requirement, converting every eight shares into one to boost its per-share value and comply with listing rules

Where Will ChargePoint Stock Be in 1 Year?
ChargePoint's revenues are still declining in this challenging market. Its margins are improving, and a cyclical turnaround could be around the corner. Its stock looks undervalued relative to its growth potential. 10 stocks we like better than ChargePoint › ChargePoint (NYSE: CHPT), the leading builder of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations in North America and Europe, posted its latest earnings report on June 4. For the first quarter of fiscal 2026, which ended on April 30, the company's revenue fell 9% year over year to $97.6 million, missing analysts' expectations by $2.9 million. It narrowed its net loss from $71.8 million to $57.1 million, or $0.12 per share, which cleared the consensus forecast by a penny. ChargePoint's stock rallied after that mixed earnings report, but it's still down about 60% over the past 12 months. Will it stabilize and recover over the following year? ChargePoint ended its first quarter with more than 352,000 charging ports, including over 35,000 DC fast chargers, under its direct management. Its roaming partnerships also grant its customers access to more than 1.25 million charging ports across the world. ChargePoint mainly sells connected charging stations to residential and commercial properties that want to host their own chargers and set their own prices. It provides those hosts with network access, billing, and customer support services. That sets it apart from Tesla's Superchargers, which mainly serve as extensions of the automaker and offer fewer connected and customizable features. ChargePoint grew rapidly in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2023 (which ended in January 2023), as EV sales surged in the post-pandemic market. But in fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2025, its growth stalled out as rising interest rates chilled the EV market and drove its residential and commercial customers to postpone their installations of new charging stalls. But in fiscal 2025, its adjusted gross, operating, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margins all improved as it narrowed its net loss. Its margins continued to expand in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, even as its revenue declined. Metric FY 2022 FY 2023 FY 2024 FY 2025 Q1 2026 Revenue $242 million $468 million $507 million $417 million $98 million Growth (YOY) 65% 93% 8% (18%) (9%) Adjusted gross margin 24% 20% 8% 26% 31% Operating margin (110%) (73%) (89%) (61%) (55%) Net income (loss) ($299 million) ($345 million) ($458 million) ($283 million) ($57 million) Adjusted EBITDA N/A ($217 million) ($273 million) ($117 million) ($23 million) Data source: ChargePoint. YOY = Year-over-year. FY = fiscal year. EBITDA = earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. ChargePoint attributes those margin improvements to the growth of its higher-margin subscription and software services -- which offset the lower margins of its chargers -- a big reduction in its inventories, and sweeping cost-cutting initiatives. ChargePoint expects to generate $90 million to $100 million in revenue in the second quarter, which would represent a decline of 8% to 17% from a year ago. During the earnings call, CFO Mansi Khetani said the company was "guiding with caution due to the continued changes in the macro environment, including tariff uncertainty" and its focus on integrating its charging stalls with Eaton's electrical grid solutions through a new one-stop shop partnership. ChargePoint didn't provide a full-year revenue outlook. However, it reiterated its goal of achieving a positive adjusted EBITDA in a single quarter of fiscal 2026. Analysts expect its revenue to come in nearly flat for the full year, which implies its revenue growth will improve in the second half of the year as the macroenvironment warms up and the EV market stabilizes. They expect its annual adjusted EBITDA to improve to negative $63 million. ChargePoint's growth may seem anemic right now, but it still has enough liquidity to ride out the near-term headwinds. It ended the first quarter with $196 million in cash and cash equivalents, it hasn't drawn a single dollar from its $150 million revolving credit facility, and it won't face any debt maturities until 2028. For fiscal 2027, analysts expect ChargePoint's revenue to rise 29% to $537 million with a negative adjusted EBITDA of $16 million. For fiscal 2028, they expect its revenue to grow 33% to $713 million with a positive adjusted EBITDA of $67 million. We should take those optimistic estimates with a grain of salt, but its cyclical downturn could represent a good buying opportunity for investors who can tune out the near-term noise. With an enterprise value of $465 million, it looks extremely undervalued at just over 1 times this year's sales. If ChargePoint meets analysts' expectations and trades at just 2 times its forward sales by the beginning of fiscal 2027, its stock price could easily rally more than 130% over the next 12 months.

The Trump administration canceled an $87 million award for this MIT startup. But life goes on.
Advertisement On May 20, Suffolk Technologies, a venture capital arm of Boston-based Suffolk Construction, announced it had invested an unspecified amount of money in Sublime and pre-purchased some of the cement that will be made in Holyoke. Two days later, Sublime announced an agreement with Microsoft in which the software giant will buy more than 620,000 metric tons of Sublime cement over up to nine years. Last fall, two of the world's largest cement suppliers, Holcim and CRH, together invested $75 million in the company. The company has also raised $45 million in venture capital funding, including from Lowercarbon Capital and Engine Ventures. And on Thursday, Sublime disclosed a roster of nine construction companies, including Suffolk, that have agreed to act as sales partners to pitch Advertisement The Holyoke factory is expected to be completed in 2027 and provide jobs for at least 70 people after it opens. The plant will still get some subsidies, including $47 million in federal tax credits that remain in place, $1.05 million in state tax credits, and $351,000 in local property tax breaks. Site work has begun in Holyoke, but not construction of the actual building. Joe Hicken, senior vice president of business development at Sublime, declined to say what kind of impact, if any, the Department of Energy's action will have on the project's timing. He noted that Sublime's mission dovetails with the Trump administration's goal of boosting American manufacturing. 'If anything, that termination letter is one data point,' Hicken said. 'We have many other data points associated with commercial movement [and] for every plan that we talk about publicly, we have 10 backup plans waiting for their day to shine.' Builders such as those at Suffolk and Consigli Construction in Milford have come to appreciate the technology developed by Sublime cofounders Leah Ellis and Yet-Ming Chiang. The process they developed replaces traditional kilns with electrolysers that make cement from calcium sources, avoiding the intense release of carbon dioxide from the super-heating of limestone used to make most cement. So far, Sublime's production has been limited to small test batches, including a foundation section included in the new building WS Development finished for Amazon in the Seaport. Consigli vice president Todd McCabe said his company signed up to sell Sublime cement because its executives are always looking for ways to build more sustainably and efficiently, and Sublime's clean cement will help with that. Advertisement At Suffolk, executives decided to buy equity in Sublime. Suffolk followed the startup soon after its 2020 inception. As Sublime moved closer to commercialization, Suffolk chief technology officer Jit Kee Chin decided it was the right time to invest. 'They're getting to the point where it's about to go to market,' Chin said. 'Really, it's no longer a science experiment. ... This is the right time for us to go in and really support them.' Chin said many of Suffolk's clients are keenly interested in Sublime's goal of creating a cost-effective, low-carbon cement that's just as effective as traditional cement, known as portland cement. The news about Sublime losing the federal award came as a disappointment to Ben Downing, the chief strategist at the Engine, a nonprofit startup accelerator affiliated with MIT and with VC firm Engine Ventures. Although it's a significant amount of money, Downing has confidence that Sublime will be able to finish the Holyoke factory. 'We know there's a lot of chaos in Washington but we believe in the science and we believe in the team,' Downing said. 'It's bad news, but if any team is going to be able to respond to it and grow and scale it, they're going to find a way [and] I know Holyoke and Massachusetts will be better for it.'
