NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Business
Syra Health Corp. (“Syra” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Indiana on November 20, 2020 to provide workforce staffing solutions, health education and healthcare research consulting services to mental health hospitals and organizations, including government agencies, integrated health networks, managed care entities and pharmaceutical manufacturers. On March 11, 2022, the Company redomiciled to Delaware. The Company’s corporate office is located in Carmel, Indiana.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 25, 2024. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted from this report on Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Results for the interim periods in this report are not necessarily indicative of future financial results and have not been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly our interim financial statements as of September 30, 2024, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature and consistent with the adjustments recorded to prepare the annual audited financial statements as of December 31, 2023.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The
Company maintains cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. Accounts are guaranteed
by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows:
| - | Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. | |
| - | Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. | |
| - | Level 3 inputs to valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair measurement. |
| F-5 |
The carrying value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The Company’s advances from related party approximates the fair value of such instruments based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to the Company for similar financial arrangements at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash
equivalents include money market accounts which have maturities of three months or less when acquired. For the purpose of the statements
of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.
Cash equivalents are stated at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. There were
Accounts Receivable
Accounts
receivable is carried at their estimated collectible amounts. Accounts receivable is periodically evaluated for collectability based
on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition. The Company had an allowance of $
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The cost of office equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method based on a -year life expectancy.
Repairs and maintenance expenditures are charged to operations as incurred. Major improvements and replacements, which extend the useful life of an asset, are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining estimated useful life of the asset. When assets are retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, all long-lived assets such as property and equipment held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to its estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets.
Leases
The Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842 - Leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current portion of obligations under operating leases, and obligations under operating leases, non-current on the Company’s balance sheets.
| F-6 |
Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date, adjusted by the deferred rent liabilities at the adoption date. As the Company’s lease does not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The Company’s terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Segment Reporting
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” requires annual and interim reporting for an enterprise’s operating segments and related disclosures about its products, services, geographic areas and major customers. An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and expenses, and about which separate financial information is regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources. The Company operates as a single segment and will evaluate additional segment disclosure requirements as it expands its operations.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
The Company accounts for revenues when both parties to the contract have approved the contract, the rights and obligations of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, and collectability of consideration is probable. Payment terms vary by client and the services offered.
The Company has the following main forms of revenue:
| – | Healthcare Workforce; | |
| – | Population Health | |
| – | Digital Health | |
| – | Behavioral and Mental Health Services | |
| – | Health Education |
The Company primarily provides its services to state health and social service agencies and universities. Healthcare Workforce, Health Education and Behavioral Mental Health Service contracts are primarily accounted for as a single performance obligation satisfied over time because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of our medical staffing on an hourly or daily basis. Population Health and Digital Health contracts generally consist of multiple performance obligations that are distinct, such as to provide data analytics and reporting, training, or develop technology for implementation and maintenance with the customer. The Company allocates the transaction price across the performance obligations based on the estimated fair value of the distinct performance obligations. Depending on the performance obligation, revenue is recognized at a point in time when the customer obtains the benefit of the services are provide, or over time in the case of digital health revenue where the customer simultaneously receives and consumes benefits of the contract, such as ongoing performance of our technology product.
| F-7 |
The contracts generally stipulate bi-weekly or monthly billing, and the Company has elected the “as invoiced” practical expedient to recognize revenue based on the hours incurred at the contractual rate as the Company has the right to payment in an amount that corresponds directly with the value of performance completed to date. The Company may also be subject to penalties for violations of certain ethical standards and non-performance measures within these state contracts. The Company recognizes revenue net of penalties.
Disaggregated revenue data
The Company’s revenue consists of the following revenue services within its industry:
Schedule of Disaggregation of Revenue
| Nine Months Ended | ||||||||
| September 30, 2024 | September 30, 2023 | |||||||
| Net revenues: | ||||||||
| Healthcare workforce | $ | $ | ||||||
| Population health | ||||||||
| Digital health | ||||||||
| Behavioral and mental services | ||||||||
| Health education | ||||||||
| Net revenues | $ | $ | ||||||
Cost of Services
The cost of services includes wages and related payroll taxes, employee benefits and certain other employee-related costs of the Company’s contract service employees, while the employees work on contract assignments.
Significant Concentrations
The
majority of accounts receivable and revenue contracts are between the Company and different divisions within the Indiana Family and Social
Services Administration (“FSSA”). Most contracts require monthly payments as the projects progress. The Company generally
does not require collateral or advance payments. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, FSSA accounted for approximately
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees and non-employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). All transactions in which the consideration provided in exchange for the purchase of goods or services consists of the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
| F-8 |
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed by dividing net income (the numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period (the denominator). Weighted average shares for basic EPS are calculated based on weighted average Class A and Class B shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and potential common shares outstanding (if dilutive) during each period. Potential common shares include stock options, warrants, conversion of Class B shares and restricted stock. The number of potential common shares outstanding relating to stock options, warrants, conversion of Class B shares and restricted stock is computed using the treasury stock method. For the periods presented, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which requires use of the liability method. FASB ASC 740-10-25 provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not, that such asset will not be recovered through future operations.
Uncertain Tax Positions
In accordance with ASC 740, the Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be capable of withstanding examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. These standards prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. These standards also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.
Various taxing authorities may periodically audit the Company’s income tax returns. These audits include questions regarding the Company’s tax filing positions, including the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income to various tax jurisdictions. In evaluating the exposures connected with various tax filing positions, including state and local taxes, the Company records allowances for probable exposures. A number of years may elapse before a particular matter, for which an allowance has been established, is audited and fully resolved. The Company has not yet undergone an examination by any taxing authorities. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as an income tax expense.
The assessment of the Company’s tax position relies on the judgment of management to estimate the exposures associated with the Company’s various filing positions.
Recent Accounting Standards
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

The
Company continues to pursue sources of additional capital through debt and financing transactions or arrangements, including equity
financing or other means. The Company may not be successful in identifying suitable funding transactions in a sufficient time period
or at all and may not obtain the required capital by other means. If the Company does not succeed in raising additional capital,
resources may not be sufficient to fund its business. The Company’s ability to scale production and distribution capabilities
and further increase the value of its brands, is largely dependent on its success in raising additional capital. From January
through April of 2023, the Company raised a total of $

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company used the two-class method to compute net loss per common share because it had issued securities, other than a single class of common stock, that contractually entitled the holders to participate in dividends and earnings. These participating securities included the Company’s Class A common stock, which was authorized pursuant to the Company’s amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation on May 2, 2022, and convertible Class B common stock which are entitled to share equally, on a per share basis, in all assets of the Company of whatever kind available for distribution to the holders of common stock. The two-class method requires earnings for the period to be allocated between common stock and participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive distributed and undistributed earnings.
Under the two-class method, for periods with net income, basic net income per common share is computed by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Net income attributable to common stockholders is computed by subtracting from net income the portion of current period earnings that the participating securities would have been entitled to receive pursuant to their dividend rights had all of the period’s earnings been distributed. No such adjustment to earnings is made during periods with a net loss, as the holders of the participating securities have no obligation to fund losses.
The Company reports the more dilutive of the approaches (two-class or “if-converted”) as its diluted net income per share during the period. For the periods presented, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe that our existing sources of liquidity, along with cash expected to be generated from sales and services, will not be sufficient to fund our operations, anticipated capital expenditures, working capital and other financing requirements for at least the next twelve months from the issuance of the financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report. In the event we are unable to achieve profitable operations in the near term, we may require additional equity and/or debt financing; however, we cannot provide assurance that such financing will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all. We will continue to monitor our expenditures and cash flow position.
The following table summarizes total current assets, liabilities, accumulated deficit and working capital (deficit) at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. To date, we have funded our operations through equity and debt financings. Our primary uses of cash have been for the development of operations, compensation, and professional fees. All funds received have been expended in the furtherance of growing our business and establishing our services and solutions. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term:
| ● | A substantial increase in working capital requirements to finance our operations; | |
| ● | Addition of administrative and professional personnel as our business continues to grow; | |
| ● | The cost of being a public company; and | |
| ● | Payments for seeking and securing quality staffing personnel. |

Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $2,145,808, which consisted of $2,469,150 of proceeds received from the sale of Class A common stock and warrants, and exercise of Class A common stock warrants, partially offset by $323,342 of repayments on notes payable. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $1,031,943, which consisted of $300,000 of proceeds received from a line of credit, and $1,455,000 of proceeds received from the sale of convertible notes payable, $1,295,010 of proceeds received from advances from related party, and partially offset by $678,611 of repayments on advances from related party, $750,397 of repayments on the line of credit and payment off deferred financing costs of $589,059.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Our actual results could differ from these estimates.
The critical accounting estimates, assumptions and judgments that we believe have the most significant impact on our financial statements are described below.
Reverse Stock Split
On August 28, 2023, we effectuated a 1-for-1.2 reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding common stock and common stock equivalents. All issued and outstanding shares of common stock and common stock equivalents and per share data have been adjusted in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, on a retrospective basis, to reflect the reverse stock split for all periods presented. Neither the authorized shares of common stock, nor the par value of the common stock were adjusted as a result of the reverse stock split.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable is carried at their estimated collectible amounts. Accounts receivable is periodically evaluated for collectability based on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition. We had an allowance of $5,520 at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” all long-lived assets such as property and equipment held and used by us are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to its estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets.
Leases
We account for our leases under ASC 842 - Leases. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current portion of obligations under operating leases, and obligations under operating leases, non-current on our balance sheets.
Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date, adjusted by the deferred rent liabilities at the adoption date. As our lease does not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. Our terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 606, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as we satisfy a performance obligation.
We account for revenues when both parties to the contract have approved the contract, the rights and obligations of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, and collectability of consideration is probable. Payment terms vary by client and the services offered.
We have the following main forms of revenue:
| – | Healthcare Workforce Services | |
| – | Behavioral and Mental Health Services | |
| – | Digital Health | |
| – | Population Health | |
| – | Health Education |
We primarily provide our services to state and local government health agencies, payers, and other private health organizations. Healthcare Workforce, Behavioral and Mental Health and Health Education contracts are accounted for as a single performance obligation satisfied over time because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of our medical staffing on an hourly or daily basis. Population Health and Digital Health contracts generally consist of multiple performance obligations that are distinct, such as to provide data analytics and reporting, training, or develop technology for implementation and maintenance with the customer. We allocate the transaction price across the performance obligations based on the estimated fair value of the distinct performance obligations. Depending on the performance obligation, revenue is recognized at a point in time when the customer obtains the benefit of the services are provide, or over time in the case of digital health revenue where the customer simultaneously receives and consumes benefits of the contract, such as ongoing performance of our technology product.
The contracts generally stipulate bi-weekly or monthly billing, and we have elected the “as invoiced” practical expedient to recognize revenue based on the hours incurred at the contractual rate as we have the right to payment in an amount that corresponds directly with the value of performance completed to date. We may also be subject to penalties for violations of certain ethical standards and non-performance measures within these state contracts. We recognize revenue net of penalties.
JOBS Act
On April 5, 2012, the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”) was enacted. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.
We have chosen to take advantage of the extended transition periods available to emerging growth companies under the JOBS Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies provided under the JOBS Act. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to those of companies that comply with public company effective dates for complying with new or revised accounting standards.
Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, as an “emerging growth company,” we intend to rely on certain of these exemptions, including, without limitation, (i) providing an auditor’s attestation report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and (ii) complying with the requirement adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the communication of critical audit matters in the auditor’s report on financial statements. We will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenues of $1.235 billion or more; (ii) the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the completion of our IPO; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the rules of the SEC.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
The Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” as of September 30, 2024 the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The term “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to a company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2024, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. Effective internal control contemplates an appropriate level of review to ensure timely preparation and completeness and accuracy of the financial statements and disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control
Except as set forth above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
In January 2024, a former employee filed a wrongful termination lawsuit against the Company in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of Indiana. The Company plans to vigorously defend itself against the claims, which it believes are without merit.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, except the following:
Our Class A common stock may be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market if we fail to comply with continued listing standards.
If we fail to meet any of the continued listing standards of The Nasdaq Capital Market, our Class A common stock could be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market. These continued listing standards include specifically enumerated criteria, such as:
| ● | a $1.00 minimum closing bid price; | |
| ● | stockholders’ equity of $2.5 million; | |
| ● | 500,000 shares of publicly-held common stock with a market value of at least $1 million; | |
| ● | 300 round-lot stockholders; and | |
| ● | compliance with Nasdaq’s corporate governance requirements, as well as additional or more stringent criteria that may be applied in the exercise of Nasdaq’s discretionary authority. |
On August 13, 2024, 2023, we received written notification (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, for the last thirty consecutive business days, the market value of our Class A common stock, had closed below the minimum $35 million requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) (the “Minimum Market Value Requirement”).
On October 18, 2024, we received a Notice from Nasdaq indicating that the bid price for our Class A common stock, for the last 30 consecutive business days for the last thirty consecutive business days, had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share and, as a result, we were not in compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) for the continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).
If we fail to comply with Nasdaq’s continued listing standards, we may be delisted and our Class A common stock will trade, if at all, only on the over-the-counter market, such as the OTC Bulletin Board or OTCQX market, and then only if one or more registered broker-dealer market makers comply with quotation requirements. In addition, delisting of our Class A common stock could depress our stock price, substantially limit liquidity of our Class A common stock and materially adversely affect our ability to raise capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Finally, delisting of our Class A common stock could result in our Class A common stock becoming a “penny stock” under the Exchange Act.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
None.
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES.
None.
ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Not applicable.
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION.
Our Executive Chairman, Sandeep Allam, is currently on a long-term medical leave. Our CEO, Deepika Vuppalanchi, has taken over Mr. Allam’s responsibilities while he is on medical leave.
