Australian Oilseeds Holdings Limited (the “Company”) received a notice dated January 6, 2026, from the Listings Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that the minimum bid price per share of its ordinary shares was below $1.00 for a period of 30 consecutive business days and that the Company did not meet the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”). The Nasdaq notification letter does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company’s ordinary shares, and the ordinary shares will continue to trade uninterrupted under the symbol “COOT.”
Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a compliance period of one hundred eighty (180) calendar days, or until July 6, 2026 (the “Compliance Period”), to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement. If at any time during the Compliance Period, the closing bid price per share of the Company’s ordinary shares is at least $1.00 for a minimum of ten (10) consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company a written confirmation of compliance and the matter will be closed.
In the event the Company does not regain compliance by July 6, 2026, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day grace period. To qualify, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, including by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.
The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of its ordinary shares and is evaluating all available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule or maintain compliance with any of the other Nasdaq continued listing requirements.
On January 8, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing the receipt of the Nasdaq notification letter. A copy of the press release dated January 8, 2026 is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
