Illustration of a Hypothetical 1-for-5 Reverse Split
The reverse splits will increase the price per share of each fund with a proportionate decrease in the number of shares outstanding. For example, for the 1-for-5 reverse split, every five pre-split shares held by a shareholder will result in the receipt of one post-split share, which will be priced at five times the net NAV of a pre-split share.
# of Shares Owned | NAV Per Share | Value of Shares | |
Pre-Split | 1,000 | $6 | $6,000 |
Post-Split | 200 | $30 | $6,000 |
Mutual Fund Forward Splits
Effective January 22, 2018, ProFunds will execute forward share splits on the following three funds at the split ratios listed below:
ProFund | Investor Class | Service Class | Split Ratio |
UltraMid-Cap | UMPIX | UMPSX | 3:1 |
UltraBull | ULPIX | ULPSX | 3:1 |
UltraNASDAQ-100 | UOPIX | UOPSX | 3:1 |
Illustration of a Hypothetical 3-for-1 Forward Split
The split will decrease the price per share of the fund with a proportionate increase in the number of shares outstanding. For example, for a 3-for-1 split, every pre-split share held by a shareholder will result in the receipt of three post-split shares, which will be priced at one-third of the net asset value ("NAV") of a pre-split share.
# of Shares Owned | NAV Per Share | Value of Shares | |
Pre-Split | 200 | $30 | $6,000 |
Post-Split | 600 | $10 | $6,000 |
