Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (45% average weekly change).

BAIYU Holdings Files Nasdaq Delisting Appeal Notice BAIYU Holdings, Inc. (the ‘Company’ or ‘BAIYU’) announced that it has filed timely a formal notice of appeal to a Hearings Panel of a Nasdaq Stock Market Listing Qualifications Staff's determination to delist the Company's securities from Nasdaq pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rules 5101 and IM-5101-1. Following the receipt of notification from Nasdaq on October 4th, BAIYU determined to appeal the decision and intends to maintain that the Staff did not consider all relevant facts in making its delisting decision. BAIYU has retained Jacob Frenkel, Dickinson Wright, PLLC, as its lead counsel in the appeal. The Nasdaq Staff based its delisting decision on concerns relating to the substance and timing of the Company's recent disclosures regarding a contract for the sale of electric lithium batteries to be purchased from a U.S.-based auto supplier and a letter of intent to build and operate electric vehicle charging stations in Cairo, Egypt. The Nasdaq Staff's articulated concerns relate to the adequacy of the Company's due diligence in the transactions and what it considered unusual trading activity in the Company's common stock following the announcements. The Company has not conducted any marketing or promotional campaigns regarding the Company's stock during the calendar years of 2023 and 2024, and no company officer or director traded BAIYU stock in August, September or October 2024. Renmei Ouyang, Chief Executive Officer of BAIYU, commented, ‘We are appealing the Nasdaq Staff's recent action because we believe that the Staff had not considered fully and appreciated the scope of work of the Company's dedicated management to secure these two significant opportunities. These two projects are natural extensions of the Company's bulk commodities trading business and align perfectly with our recent expansion into clean energy projects, including battery-charging stations. We are a company that lets the quality of our people, our experience and business plan speak for themselves.’ Ouyang further stated that ‘management's prioritization of expanding the Company's business footprint and building shareholder value should result in favorable consideration by Nasdaq in our appeal.’ Nevertheless, the Company acknowledges that it cannot predict the outcome of the appeal. Ouyang added that ‘we are committed to advancing expeditiously our efforts to maximize shareholder opportunities and value and pursue our business strategy uninterrupted.’ BAIYU anticipates that its common stock will remain listed on the Nasdaq pending the outcome of the hearing and subsequent decision by a hearings panel. There can be no assurance that the panel will grant the Company's request for continued listing. Meanwhile, the Company continues to be current with its filings of periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and expects to maintain the registration of its securities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Moreover, the Nasdaq Staff's notice of determination of delisting does not affect the Company's business operations, financial position, or ability to meet all financial obligations to partners and other counterparties.
