Business Context and Reporting Period
This Form 8-K Current Report was filed by NextDecade Corporation on February 20, 2018. The filing addresses the status of the Company's securities listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market following a compliance review regarding the minimum number of round lot stockholders.
Key Financial Metrics
The filing text does not provide a clear value for revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, debt, or liquidity. This report focuses exclusively on regulatory listing status and does not contain financial performance data.
Material Changes
- Common Stock: The Company successfully met the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5505(a)(3) requirement for the minimum number of round lot stockholders. Consequently, the common stock (symbol "NEXT") will continue to be listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
- Warrants: The Company withdrew its appeal regarding the Warrants Listing Requirement (Rule 5515(a)(4)) on February 16, 2018, acknowledging an inability to satisfy the requirement by the March 6, 2018 deadline.
- Delisting Action: The Nasdaq Hearings Panel determined to delist the Company's warrants from The Nasdaq Capital Market effective at the open of business on February 22, 2018.
- Trading Transfer: Beginning February 22, 2018, the warrants will trade on The OTC Pink Market under the symbol "NEXTW."
Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
Management notes that while the warrants are moving to the OTC Pink Market, the Company can give no assurance that trading in its warrants will continue on The OTC Pink Market or on any other securities exchange or quotation medium. The primary risk identified is the potential cessation of warrant trading or reduced liquidity following the transfer from Nasdaq.
Investor Verification Checklist
