The request metadata identifies BONK, INC., but the filing itself identifies Jupiter Wellness, Inc. as the registrant.
Key financial metrics

Material changes versus the prior comparable period
Nasdaq notified the company that its common stock had failed to meet the minimum $1.00 closing bid price requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for 30 consecutive business days. The filing does not provide a comparable prior-period financial analysis.
Guidance, outlook, risks, contingencies, and unusual items
- The deficiency notice had no immediate effect on the company’s Nasdaq listing, which remained effective as of the filing.
- The company received 180 calendar days, through December 20, 2022, to regain compliance.
- Compliance could be restored if the stock closed at or above $1.00 per share for at least 10 consecutive business days, subject to Nasdaq’s discretion.
- The company may be eligible for an additional 180-day compliance period if it satisfies applicable market value and other initial listing requirements and provides written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency, potentially through a reverse stock split.
- If compliance is not regained, Nasdaq may issue a delisting notice. The company would have the right to appeal to a Nasdaq hearings panel.
- The company stated that it expected the common stock could trade on an OTC Markets marketplace if it ceased to be listed on Nasdaq.
- Management stated that it would monitor the bid price and evaluate available options, but cautioned that there was no assurance of regaining compliance, obtaining an additional compliance period, or satisfying other Nasdaq requirements.
Important facts for investors to verify
- Whether the company subsequently regained compliance with Nasdaq’s $1.00 minimum bid price requirement.
- Whether Nasdaq granted an additional compliance period or issued a delisting determination.
- Whether the company implemented or proposed a reverse stock split.
- The company’s current listing venue and trading symbol, given the discrepancy between the request metadata and the registrant named in the filing.
- Current operating results, cash resources, debt obligations, and other financial information, which are not included in this 8-K.
