Item 1.01 Entry into a Material DefinitiveAgreement.
On April, 10 2025, Inspire Veterinary Partners, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notice letter (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, based on the Company’s stockholders’ equity of $1,562,005, as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company is no longer in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Stockholders’ Equity Requirement”). Additionally, as of April 9, 2025, the Company does not meet the alternatives of market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations. These matters serve as a basis for delisting the Company’s securities from Nasdaq.
The Company has 45 calendar days to submit its plan to regain compliance to Nasdaq. If the plan is accepted, Nasdaq will grant the Company an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the Notice to evidence compliance. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company’s plan of compliance, the Company will have the opportunity to appeal the decision to the Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
