SEALSQ Transfers Listing of its Ordinary Shares to Nasdaq Capital Market
SEALSQ Corp (Nasdaq: LAES) (the “Company”), a company that focuses on developing and selling Semiconductors, PKI and Post-Quantum technology hardware and software products, has received approval from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) to transfer the listing of its shares from the Nasdaq Global Market to the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Nasdaq Capital Market is a continuous trading market that operates in substantially the same manner as the Nasdaq Global Market, and listed companies must meet certain financial and corporate governance requirements. This transfer was effective as of the opening of business on October 20, 2023.
This announcement has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s ordinary shares. The Company’s shares will continue to trade under the “LAES” ticker symbol. The approval by Nasdaq was conditioned upon the Company meeting the applicable market value requirement of publicly held shares for continued listing and all other applicable requirements for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
The transfer to the Nasdaq Capital Market means the Company is no longer in default of Nasdaq Listing Rules and will continue to monitor its compliance with the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market.
