01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing. As previously disclosed, on April 7, 2025, the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") notified the Company that, based on the previous 30 consecutive business days, its common stock no longer met the minimum $1.00 bid price required by the continuous listing requirements Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "Minimum Bid Requirement"). Therefore, in accordance with Nasdaq's listing rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until October 6, 2025, to regain compliance. On October 7, 2025, the Company received written notice from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it has determined that the Company is eligible for an additional 180-day calendar period, or until April 6, 2026, to regain compliance. The determination is based upon the Company meeting the applicable market value of publicly held shares requirement for continued listing and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market (except for the Minimum Bid Requirement), the Company's written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. To regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement, the closing bid price of the Company's common stock must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days at any time during this additional 180-day compliance period. If the Company regains compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement, Nasdaq will provide the Company with written confirmation of compliance and will close the matter. If the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement by April 6, 2026, Nasdaq will provide written notification to the Company that its common stock will be delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal Nasdaq's delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel. There can be no assurance that, if
