Neptune Wellness Announces Receipt of Nasdaq Delisting Notice and Intention to Appeal Neptune Wellness Solutions Inc. (‘Neptune’ or the ‘Company’) announced that it received notification from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (‘Nasdaq’) on November 30, 2023, that Nasdaq has determined to delist the Company's common shares (the ‘Common Shares’) due to noncompliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement and the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement (each as defined below). The notification specifies that the Company is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market (NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(a)(2)), as the bid price for the Common Shares on Nasdaq closed below USD 1.00 (the ‘Minimum Bid Requirement’) for 30 consecutive trading days. As the Company previously implemented two reverse stock splits over the prior two-year period with a cumulative ratio of 250 shares or more to one, it is not eligible for any compliance period specified in Rule 5810(c)(3)(A). In addition, as previously disclosed, the Company received notification on July 19, 2023, that it was not in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement (NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(b)(1)), as the Company's stockholders’ equity was below the minimum USD 2.5 million required (the ‘Stockholders’ Equity Requirement’). The Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until January 16, 2024, to regain compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement. This deficiency serves as an additional and separate basis for delisting. The Company intends to appeal the determination made by Nasdaq within seven calendar days, or by December 7, 2023, pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rules. The Nasdaq Listing Rules provide that the Company may request a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the ‘Panel’), and such hearing request will stay the suspension of the Company's securities pending the Panel's decision.
