Nasdaq Extension Update
As previously disclosed, on April 17, 2024, the Registrant received a determination letter from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq, or the Staff, notifying the Registrant of the Staff’s determination that, unless the Registrant timely requests a hearing before the Panel, the Registrant’s securities would be subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market due to the Registrant’s failure to maintain at least a $1 bid price per share over the course of 30 consecutive business days, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In addition, on May 22, 2024, the Registrant received an additional determination letter from the Staff notifying the Registrant that it did not comply with the minimum $2,500,000 stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing set forth in Listing Rule 5550(b), and that the additional delinquency may serve as a separate basis for the delisting of the Registrant’s securities from Nasdaq. The Registrant requested a hearing with the Panel. A hearing on the matter was held on June 4, 2024, where the Registrant presented its compliance plan.
Subject to the Registrant meeting certain financial, share price and other requirements by September 3, 2024 and October 14, 2024, the Panel granted the Registrant an extension until October 14, 2024, to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), which requires a minimum bid price of $1.00 of the Registrant’s common shares, and Nasdaq Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires a minimum of $2,500,000 of stockholders’ equity, or satisfy any of the alternative requirements in Listing Rule 5550(b).
On September 27, 2024, the Panel reconfirmed to the Registrant that it has until October 14, 2024 to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) and 5550(b)(1).
The Report on Form 6-K is incorporated by reference into the Registrant’s Registration Statements on Form F-3 (File No. 333-262489, and 333-268690 and 333-269220), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, to be a part thereof from the date on which this report is submitted, to the extent not superseded by documents or reports subsequently filed or furnished.
