Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On August 6, 2024, Hanryu Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) that the Company had been granted an additional 180 calendar days, or until February 3, 2025, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5450(a)(1), requiring a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”), based on the Company meeting the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and the Company’s written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary, during the second compliance period.
As previously disclosed by the Company in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 12, 2024, the Company received a notification letter from the Staff notifying the Company that, because the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock listed on Nasdaq was below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days, the Company no longer met the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its common stock between now and February 3, 2025 and consider its available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with The Nasdaq Capital Market’s continued listing requirements.
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including the statement that the Company will consider available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. The words “will,” “intend,” “estimate,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. While the Company believes its plans, intentions and expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, these plans, intentions or expectations may not be achieved. The Company’s actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those contemplated, expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Risk Factors” and “Item 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as the Company’s various other filings with the SEC.
