Nuwellis, Inc. Announces Adjournment of Special Meeting of Stockholders Due to Lack of Quorum

December 8, 2022

MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nuwellis, Inc. (Nasdaq: NUWE), a medical technology company focused on transforming the lives of people with fluid overload, today announced that the Company’s Special Meeting of Stockholders, on December 7, 2022 at 2:00 p.m. (CST), was convened and adjourned, without any business being conducted, due to lack of the required quorum.

A quorum consists of one-third of the outstanding shares entitled to vote. There were fewer than one-third of outstanding shares entitled to vote, either present virtually or represented by proxy, at the Special Meeting. The Special Meeting therefore had no quorum and was adjourned to 2:00 p.m. Central Time on January 4, 2023 at www.viewproxy.com/nuwesm/2022 to allow additional time for the Company’s stockholders to vote on the proposals set forth in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 7, 2022.

During the period of adjournment, the Company will continue to solicit votes from its stockholders with respect to the proposals set forth in the proxy statement.

Only stockholders of record as of the record date, October 13, 2022, are entitled to and are being requested to vote. At the time the Special Meeting was adjourned, proxies had been submitted by stockholders representing approximately 31.69% of the shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. Proxies previously submitted in respect of the Special Meeting will be voted at the adjourned Special Meeting unless properly revoked, and stockholders who have previously submitted a proxy or otherwise voted need not take any action.

The Company encourages all stockholders of record on October 13, 2022 who have not yet voted to do so before Tuesday, January 3, 2023 at 10:59 p.m., Central Time.
