Volatility Shares Announces ETF Reverse Share Split
PALM BEACH GARDENS, FL, UNITED STATES, June 17, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Volatility Shares LLC, on behalf of VS Trust (the “Trust”), announced today a reverse share split (a “Reverse Split”) for its series, 2x Long VIX Futures ETF (Cboe BZX Exchange symbol: UVIX (the “Fund”)). The Reverse Split will not change the value of a shareholder’s investment.
The Fund will experience a 1 for 20 Reverse Split of its shares which will be effective at the market open on July 1, 2026, when the Fund begins trading at its respective post-Reverse Split prices. The ticker symbol for the Fund will not change, but the Fund will be issued a new CUSIP number: 92891H705.
Ticker: UVIX
Fund: 2x Long VIX Futures ETF
Split Ratio: 1:20
Old CUSIP: 92891H606
New CUSIP: 92891H705
The Reverse Split will increase the net asset value per share of the Fund with a proportionate decrease in the number of shares outstanding. Specifically, every 20 pre-Reverse Split shares held by a Fund shareholder will result in the receipt of one post-Reverse Split share, which will be priced 20 times higher than the net asset value of a pre-Reverse Split share.
Fractional Shares from Reverse Splits
For Fund shareholders who hold quantities of shares that are not an exact multiple of the applicable Reverse Split ratio (i.e., not a multiple of 20), the Reverse Split will result in the creation of a fractional share. Post-Reverse Split fractional shares will be redeemed for cash and sent to the shareholder’s broker of record. This redemption may cause some shareholders to realize gains or losses, which could be a taxable event for those shareholders. For questions, please call (866) 261-0273.
