Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
On January 3, 2025, we received a letter (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications staff of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, based upon the closing bid price of our common stock for the last 31 consecutive business days, we no longer meet the requirement to maintain a minimum bid price of $1 per share, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1).
In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we have been provided a period of 180 calendar days, or until July 2, 2025, in which to regain compliance. In order to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, the closing bid price of our common stock must be at least $1 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during this 180-day period. In the event that we do not regain compliance within this 180-day period, we may be eligible to seek an additional compliance period of 180 calendar days if we meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other Nasdaq initial listing standards, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and provide written notice to Nasdaq of our intent to cure the deficiency during this second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. However, if it appears to the Nasdaq staff that we will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if we are otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq will provide us notice that our common stock will be subject to delisting.
The Notice does not result in the immediate delisting of our common stock from the Nasdaq Global Select Market. We intend to monitor the closing bid price of our common stock and consider our available options in the event that the closing bid price of our common stock remains below $1 per share, including effecting a reverse stock split if our stockholders approve a proposal granting our board of directors discretion to do so. There can be no assurance that we will be able to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement or maintain compliance with the other listing requirements.
