Anghami ReCEIVES NASDAQ MINIMUM BID PRICE NOTIFICATION
12 October, 2023, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (UAE) - On October 05, 2023, Anghami Inc. (NASDAQ: ANGH) (the “Company” or “Anghami”), the leading streaming platform for music and entertainment in the Middle East and North Africa region (MENA), received a written notification (the “Notification Letter”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”), indicating that the Company is currently not in compliance with Nasdaq Rule 5450(a)(1), as the Company’s closing bid price for its ordinary shares (the “Ordinary Shares”) was below $1.00 per share for the last 30 consecutive business days.
The Nasdaq Stock Market Rules provide the Company with a period of 180 calendar days to regain compliance. According to the Notification Letter, the Company has until April 2nd, 2024, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. The Company will regain compliance, if at any time during this 180-day period, the closing bid price of its Ordinary Shares is at least $1.00 for a minimum period of ten consecutive business days, in which case the Company will be provided with a written confirmation of compliance from Nasdaq and this matter will be closed.
It is noted that Anghami’s continued listing on Nasdaq remains a key priority. Should the situation not resolve itself during the 180 calendar day compliance period, the Company intends to consider available options to cure the deficiency and regain compliance with the minimum bid requirement within the compliance period, including by potentially approving a reverse share split.
The Notification Letter from Nasdaq has no immediate effect on the Anghami‘s Nasdaq listing or the trading of its Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq, and the Company continues to execute its business plan and is looking into various options available to regain compliance.
