Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On August 1, 2023, Clene Inc. (the “Company”) received a written notice (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that for the last 30 consecutive business days, the bid price for the Company’s common stock had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing in the Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock and its common stock will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “CLNN.”
In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a period of 180 calendar days, or until January 29, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If at any time before January 29, 2024, the bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company with a written confirmation of compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
If the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by January 29, 2024, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180-day compliance period, provided that on the 180th day of the first compliance period it meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable standards for initial listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and notifies Nasdaq of its intent to cure the deficiency with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement when required, Nasdaq will provide written notification to the Company that its common stock is subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel.
The Company intends to actively monitor the bid price for its common stock between now and January 29, 2024, and will consider its available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. There can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement or maintain compliance with any of the other Nasdaq continued listing requirements.
