Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
As previously disclosed, on May 10, 2023, Nexalin Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it was no longer in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq, as the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock was below $1.00 per share as set forth in the Nasdaq listing rules. The Company was afforded 180 calendar days, or until November 6, 2023, to regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing rules. The Company was unable to regain compliance with the bid price requirement by November 6, 2023.
On November 7, 2023, the Company submitted a letter to NASDAQ requesting a second 180-day period in order to regain compliance with NASDAQ Rule 5550(a)(2). The Company stated in that letter that it believed it would be able to cure the deficiency and increase its stock price to above $1.00 per share pursuant to a plan set forth in such letter.
On November 7, 2023, the Company received written notice from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) that the Company was not eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period because the Company no longer complied with Nasdaq’s $5 million minimum stockholder equity initial listing requirement.
As of the filing date of this Report, the Company has requested an appeal of the Staff’s determination and submitted a hearing request to the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (“Panel”). As a result of the request for the appeal to the Panel, and while the appeal process is pending, the suspension of trading of the Company’s common stock is stayed, and the Company’s common stock and warrants will continue to trade on Nasdaq until the hearing process concludes and the Panel issues a written decision. As part of the appeal process, the Company will be asked to provide the Panel with a plan to regain compliance with the minimum bid price and stockholder equity requirements. The Company’s plan will need to include a discussion of the events that the Company believes will enable it to timely regain compliance with such requirements. The Company intends to submit a plan that it believes will be sufficient to permit the Company to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement and stockholder equity requirements.
