Hello gfp, Do you know what happens to the authorized share count in the event of a reverse split? Does it shrink in line with the shares outstanding?

I don't know as I don't have much experience with reverse splitting stocks. If the shares authorized stay the same, and if cortex is forced into a pipe, then I would think the chances of a reverse split would be much greater as they could raise a lot more money.

Should the authorized shares shrink in lock step, then it's a wash, but cortex could still do a reverse split, then a small pipe, and then increase the authorized count, which would look like a more respectable level of total authorized shares for future funding needs.

Just thinking out loud.

Take Care.

The market cap of your little gem is $14MM. (I could drive by a few houses in my neighborhood that cost as much.)

Guys. I don't think they can even get a deal done. Varney needs to act in the best interest of shareholders and sell the co. Unfortunately, management's arrogance got in the way here. I doubt they even have a plan.

History, does indeed repeat itself. Hey Roger, thanks for not disclosing the tox issue- great decision. Varney is the son paying for the sins of the father. (and making all of the same mistakes in the process.)

Light up all the luckies. Everything must go!

Gfp:

As I posted last week, the deals I have seen have been priced at 'average of closing price for five days'--so if a financing was done today, it would be around 30 cents. They have also been pretty 'vanilla', comprising those shares plus warrants.

I wasn't particularly predicting a certain number of shares, just noting the stakes involved in their pricing. Your point about the authorized share limit is very pertinent.

While the share price is appalling, the idea of raising 'only' $5-6 million is not in itself abhorrent. That plus a modest RD deal would give them enough runway to get a SA deal IF those data are positive.
