Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.


On April 9, 2025, Amarin announced it will effect the previously announced adjustment in its ratio of its American depositary shares (“ADSs”) to its ordinary shares, £0.50 par value per share (“Ordinary Shares”) from one (1) ADS representing one (1) Ordinary Share to one (1) ADS representing twenty (20) Ordinary Shares (the “ADS Ratio Change”) on April 11, 2025 (the “Effective Date”). The ADS Ratio Change will result in a one for twenty reverse split of issued and outstanding ADSs, and it will have no effect on the Ordinary Shares.

As a result of the ADS Ratio Change, the trading price of Amarin's ADSs is expected to increase proportionally, but Amarin can give no assurance that the trading price per ADS after the ADS Ratio Change will be equal to or greater than twenty (20) times the trading price per ADS before the change.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD

On April 9, 2025, Amarin issued a press release announcing the effective date of the ADS Ratio Change. A copy of this press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Amarin Confirms Effective Date for 1-For-20 ADS Ratio Change

-- Action Taken to Maintain Company’s Nasdaq Listing –

 

DUBLIN, Ireland and BRIDGEWATER, N.J., April 9, 2025 -- Amarin Corporation plc (NASDAQ: AMRN), today announced that the Company’s previously announced ratio change on its American Depositary Shares (“ADS”) from one (1) ADS representing one (1) ordinary share, to the new ratio of one (1) ADS representing twenty (20) ordinary shares (the “Ratio Change”) will be effective on April 11, 2025 (the "Effective Date").

The objective of this action is to increase the per share market price of the Company’s ADSs to comply with Nasdaq’s $1.00 minimum bid price per share requirement and maintain the Company’s listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company can give no assurance that the trading price per ADS after the Ratio Change will be equal to or greater than twenty (20) times the trading price per ADS before the Ratio Change.

On the Effective Date, holders of uncertificated ADSs in the Direct Registration System (“DRS”) and in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) do not need to take any action, as the exchange of every twenty (20) then-held (existing) ADSs for one (1) new ADS will occur automatically. Registered holders of certificated ADSs will be required to surrender their certificated ADSs to the depositary bank for cancellation and will receive one (1) new ADS for every twenty (20) existing ADS surrendered.

No fractional new ADSs will be issued in connection with the Ratio Change. Rather, fractional entitlements to new ADSs will be aggregated and sold by the depositary bank, and the net cash proceeds from the sale of the fractional ADS entitlements (after deduction of taxes) will be distributed to the applicable ADS holders by the depositary bank.

The ordinary shares of the Company will not be affected by this Ratio Change. The ADSs will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “AMRN”.​

Additional questions and answers regarding the Ratio Change can be found under the Investor Relations section of Amarin’s corporate web site here: https://cms.amarincorp.com/sites/default/files/2025-03/e6713d4c-9083-4623-a9e9-6b13d8a4201b.pdf
