Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On May 8, 2026, Rockwell Medical, Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice (the “Notice”) from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) requires listed securities maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”), and Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet the Minimum Bid Price Requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days. Based on the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the Notice, the Company currently does not meet the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been provided an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until November 4, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. During the compliance period, the Company’s common stock will continue to be listed and traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during the 180-calendar day grace period. In the event that the Company does not regain compliance by November 4, 2026, the Company may be eligible for additional time to reach compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.
The Company has included in the Proxy Statement for its 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders a proposal to effect a reverse stock split. If the proposal is approved by the Company’s stockholders and the reverse stock split is implemented, the Company believes it would regain compliance with the applicable Nasdaq continued listing requirements, including the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, although there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain or maintain compliance with all applicable Nasdaq listing standards.
Forward Looking Statements
We make, or incorporate by reference, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in this Current Report on Form 8-K. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and include information about our current expectations and possible or assumed future results of our operations. When we use words such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “continue,” “could,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “forecast,” “project,” “intend,” "focus on," or similar expressions, or make statements regarding our intent, belief, or current expectations, we are making forward-looking statements. There can be no assurance that the Company will meet the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during any compliance period or otherwise in the future, that the proposed reverse stock split will be approved or effected, that the Company will otherwise regain or maintain compliance with Nasdaq standards, or that Nasdaq will grant the Company any relief from delisting as necessary or whether the Company can agree to or ultimately meet applicable Nasdaq requirements for any such relief. Because these forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions that are subject to significant uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control or are subject to change, actual results could be materially different from the anticipated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. Reference is also made to other factors detailed from time to time in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and other filings that the Company makes from time to time with the SEC, which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, and could cause actual results to vary from expectations.
The forward-looking statements made in this Current Report on Form 8-K relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Current Report on Form 8-K to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. The Company may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in its forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.
