Item3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On July 3, 2024, BriaCell Therapeutics Corp. (the “Company”) received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, based upon the Company’s Market Value of Listed Securities (“MVLS”) for the 33 consecutive business days from May 15, 2024, to July 2, 2024, the Company did not meet the minimum MVLS of $35,000,000 required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2). The letter also indicated that the Company will be provided with a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until December 30, 2024 (the “Compliance Period”), in which to regain compliance pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C).
In order to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum MVLS requirement, the Company’s MVLS must close at $35,000,000 or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during the Compliance Period. If the Company does not regain compliance with the minimum MVLS requirement, Nasdaq will provide notice that the Company’s common shares will be subject to delisting. In such event, Nasdaq rules permit the Company to appeal any delisting determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
The letter has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s common shares, which will continue to be listed and traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to the Company’s compliance with the other listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market.
