Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On December 21, 2022, Heart Test Laboratories, Inc (the “Company”) received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that it is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires companies listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market to maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders’ equity for continued listing. In its quarterly report for the period ended October 31, 2022, the Company reported stockholders’ equity of $1,082,676, and, as a result, does not currently satisfy Listing Rule 5550(b)(1).
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. Nasdaq’s letter provides the Company with 45 calendar days, or until February 3, 2023, to submit a plan to regain compliance. If the plan is accepted, the Company can be granted up to 180 calendar days from December 21, 2022, to evidence compliance. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with all applicable continued listing requirements or that its plan will be accepted by the Nasdaq staff. In the event the plan is not accepted by the Nasdaq staff, or in the event the plan is accepted and the extension granted but the Company fails to regain compliance within the plan period, the Company would have the right to a hearing before an independent panel. The hearing request would stay any suspension or delisting action pending the conclusion of the hearing process and the expiration of any additional extension period granted by the panel following the hearing.
The Company intends to take all reasonable measures available to regain compliance under the Nasdaq Listing Rules and remain listed on Nasdaq. The Company is currently evaluating its available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Nasdaq minimum stockholders’ equity requirement. The Company intends to submit the compliance plan by the Nasdaq deadline.
If trading in the common stock is suspended on Nasdaq or the common stock is delisted by Nasdaq for any reason, it could negatively impact the Company as it would likely reduce the liquidity and market price of the common stock; reduce the number of investors willing to hold or acquire the common stock; negatively impact the Company’s ability to access equity markets and obtain financing; and impair the Company’s ability to provide equity incentives.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
