Material Changes
On October 17, 2022, UIHC received written notice from Nasdaq stating that the company failed to meet the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing. The deficiency was based on the closing bid price of the common stock remaining below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days.
Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary
- Compliance Period: Nasdaq has granted an initial 180-calendar-day compliance period to regain compliance.
- Requirement: To comply, the closing bid price must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days prior to April 15, 2023.
- Delisting Risk: If compliance is not achieved by the deadline, the company may be eligible for an additional 180-day period. Failure to regain compliance within any granted period will result in a notice of delisting.
- Management Action: The company intends to monitor the stock price and consider available options to resolve the noncompliance. The notice has no immediate effect on the current listing.
