Item 8.01 Other Events.
As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 13, 2023, SeaStar Medical Holding Corporation (the “Company”) received a notification from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) that the Company had not regain compliance with the continued listing requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) (the “Market Value Rule”), because the market value of the Company’s common stock was less than $35.0 million for the applicable period (the “Delisting Notice”). The Delisting Notice indicated that the Company’s common stock would be subject to delisting unless the Company timely requests a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearing Panel (the “Panel”). On December 19, 2023, the Company submitted a hearing request to the Panel to appeal the delisting determination. On the same date, the Company also received a notice from Nasdaq stating that its delisting action has been stayed pending a final written decision by the Panel and that a hearing will be held on March 12, 2024.
Subject to the final written decision by the Panel, neither the Delisting Notice nor the Company’s noncompliance with the Market Value Rule will have an immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock, which will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ICU.”
