BEIJING, Oct. 20, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Gravitas Education Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: GEHI) (“GEHI” or the “Company”), a leading early childhood education service provider in China, today announced that it plans to change the ratio of its American Depositary Shares (“ADS(s)”) to its Class A ordinary shares (“Share(s)”) from one (1) ADS representing twenty (20) Shares to one (1) ADS representing ten (10) Shares (the “ADS Ratio Change”). The Company anticipates that the ADS Ratio Change will be effective on or about October 31, 2023 (the “Effective Date”).

Citibank, N.A., the depositary bank of the Company’s ADS program, will arrange for the distribution of additional ADSs issuable pursuant to the ADS Ratio Change to registered holders of the Company’s ADSs. The Company’s ADS holders need not take any action with regards to the ADS Ratio Change. The Company’s ADSs will continue to be traded on the NYSE under the symbol “GEHI.” The ADS Ratio Change will have no impact on the Company’s underlying ordinary shares, and no ordinary shares will be issued or cancelled in connection with the ADS Ratio Change.

The Company previously announced that the Company’s board of directors approved a special cash dividend in the amount arranging from US$11.256 to US$12.17 per ADS, or from US$0.5628 to US$0.6085 per Share. As a result of the ADS Ratio Change, the dividend to be distributed per ADS will also change accordingly on a pro rata basis.
