Guidance, Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items
- On November 14, 2023, Nasdaq notified the Company that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires timely filing of financial reports.
- The Company had until January 16, 2024, to submit a compliance plan to Nasdaq.
- If Nasdaq accepted the plan, the Company could receive an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the filing’s due date, potentially extending the compliance period to April 29, 2024.
- There is no assurance that Nasdaq would accept the compliance plan or that the Company would regain compliance within any extension period.
- Failure to regain compliance could result in delisting of the Company’s securities from Nasdaq.
- The notice did not cause immediate delisting. The ordinary shares were expected to continue trading uninterrupted under CACO, subject to compliance with other Nasdaq requirements.
- The Company issued a related press release on November 17, 2023, filed as Exhibit 99.1.
Key Facts for Investor Verification
