Item 5 . Other Information.
During the three months ended June 30, 2025 , no director or officer of the Company adopted or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.
Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard
As previously reported by the Company on its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 7, 2025, the Company received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq stating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because the Company has not maintained a minimum closing bid price of the Company’s common stock of at least $1.00 per share for the last 30 consecutive business days. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company had a period of 180 calendar days from February 6, 2025, or until August 5, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
As also previously disclosed by the Company on its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 16, 2025, the Company received a written notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Staff of Nasdaq notifying the Company that because the Company’s stockholders’ equity was $547,000 as of March 31, 2025, as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, it was no longer in compliance with the $10,000,000 minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(A), and the Company, as of the date of the Notice, also did not meet the alternative compliance standards relating to the market value of the listed securities or the Company’s total assets and revenue.
On August 6, 2025, the Staff issued the Delisting Notice, indicating that the Company did not satisfy the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by the Compliance Date. Although on June 26, 2025, the Company submitted its plan to regain compliance with the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement, pursuant to Listing Rule 5810(d)(2), this deficiency became an additional basis for delisting, and as a result, the Company was not eligible for a second 180-day extension. The Company intends to request a hearing (the “Hearing”) before the Panel to appeal the determination by the Staff, and to present its plan to regain and sustain compliance with both the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement. The Appeal will stay any delisting or suspension action of the Company’s listed shares contemplated by the Delisting Notice.
There is no guarantee that the Panel will grant an extension of the compliance period or that the outcome of the Hearing or the Appeal will be favorable to the Company.
