EDEN PRAIRIE, MN, May 22, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CHF Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq:CHFS) (“CHF Solutions”) today announced that its 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 20, 2020 convened and then adjourned until June 19, 2020 2:00 p.m. US Central Time at https://web.lumiagm.com/257409059 to solicit additional proxies for Proposal 3, granting the Board of Directors the discretion to implement a reverse stock split (“Proposal 3”).

The Board of Directors believes approval of Proposal 3 is in the best interests of CHF Solutions and its stockholders because a reverse stock split may be necessary to maintain the listing of CHF Solutions’ common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market (“Nasdaq”). A delisting of the common stock from Nasdaq could significantly impair CHF Solutions’ ability to raise additional capital, which may be needed to operate its business; it could result in lower prices for its common stock and larger spreads in the bid and ask prices for the common stock; and it could impact a stockholders ability to trade shares of common stock. Proposal 3 is described in more detail in the company’s proxy statement, dated April 13, 2020 (the “Proxy Statement”), furnished to stockholders in connection with the 2020 Annual Meeting. As stated in the Proxy Statement, CHF Solutions only intends to implement the reverse stock split if needed to maintain its listing on Nasdaq.

Stockholders have thus far strongly supported Proposal 3. At the time of the meeting, approximately 56% of the shares that had been voted on Proposal 3 had been voted in its favor. However, the favorable votes were less than the absolute majority of all outstanding shares needed for approval. Proposals 1, 2 and 4 were approved at the Annual Meeting.

As described in the proxy statement, a stockholder may use one of the following simple methods to vote with respect to Proposal 3:
