T2 Biosystems Investor Update
March 20, 2024
Moving to our Ongoing Commercial and Strategic Discussions.
As previously discussed, we engaged an advisory firm in 2023 to explore all potential strategic alternatives to maximize value, including an acquisition, merger, reverse merger, other business combination, sale of assets, licensing, and other strategic transactions. Over the past 12 months, we have engaged with a number of potential partners and continue to explore potential commercial and/or strategic partnerships.
Moving to our Nasdaq Compliance Plan.
On March 12, 2024, we announced that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel has granted our request for continued listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market, subject to the Company demonstrating compliance with Nasdaq’s market value of listed securities (“Market Value”) requirement, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) (the “Rule”) on or before May 20, 2024.
We continue to prioritize maintaining our Nasdaq listing and consider it to be in the best interest of both the Company and its stockholders, as we believe listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market maintains liquidity for stockholders, helps attract and retain key employees, broadens our access to capital, and better positions the company for potential mergers and acquisitions.
The Rule requires that the Company maintain a closing Market Value of at least $35.0 million for a minimum of ten consecutive business days. During the extension period, we will continue to actively monitor our Market Value and take appropriate action, if necessary and as advised by our Board of Directors, to remedy the deficiency.
These actions may include the potential conversion of $15.0 million dollars of outstanding indebtedness held by our, CRG, to equity in the company. Additionally, while not part of our Nasdaq compliance plan, we have numerous potential business catalysts that we believe can create value and increase the market value of our listed securities. There can be no assurance, however, that the company will be able to timely comply with the terms of the Nasdaq Hearings Panel’s decision.
