Material Changes and Events
- Nasdaq Non-Compliance: On September 12, 2024, the Company received notice from Nasdaq that its common stock failed to maintain the $1.00 minimum closing bid price requirement for 30 consecutive business days.
- Ineligibility for Standard Cure Period: The Company is not eligible for the standard 180-calendar day compliance period because it executed one or more reverse stock splits with a cumulative ratio of 250:1 or more within the prior two-year period.
- Hearing Scheduled: The Company requested a hearing before a Hearings Panel, scheduled for November 5, 2024. This hearing automatically stays any suspension or delisting action pending the outcome.
