Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On August 3, 2026, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that, for a period of 30 consecutive business days, the Company’s market value of listed securities (“MVLS”) closed below the $35,000,000 MVLS threshold required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) (the “MVLS Requirement”). The notification letter also noted that the Company does not meet the alternative continued listing standards under Nasdaq Listing Rules 5550(b)(1) and 5550(b)(3), relating to minimum stockholders’ equity and net income from continuing operations, respectively (the “Alternative Standards”).
Nasdaq’s letter has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s common stock, which will continue to be listed and traded on Nasdaq, subject to the Company’s compliance with the other continued listing requirements. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company has until February 1, 2027 to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement (the “MVLS Compliance Period”). To regain compliance, the Company’s MVLS must close at $35 million or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during the MVLS Compliance Period, unless Nasdaq exercises its discretion to require a longer period as permitted under its rules. As an alternative, the Company may request that Nasdaq evaluate compliance under one of the Alternative Standards; though substitution remains at Nasdaq’s discretion.
If the Company does not regain compliance by the end of the MVLS Compliance Period, Nasdaq staff will provide written notice to the Company that its securities are subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal any such delisting determination to a hearings panel.
The Company intends to actively monitor the market value of its listed securities and may, if appropriate, consider implementing available options to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement or meet one of the Alternate Standards. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2), or maintain compliance with any other listing requirements.
The Company’s receipt of this letter from Nasdaq does not affect the Company’s business, operations or reporting requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On August 4, 2026, Lisa Roger, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, notified the Company that she would be retiring no later than December 31, 2026. She and the Company are working through the details of a transition.
