AACHEN, Germany, March 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Next.e.GO N.V. (NASDAQ:EGOX) ("e.GO") today announced that on March 25, 2024 the Company received a Staff determination letter (the "Letter") from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") notifying the Company of the Staff's determination to delist the Company's securities because the Company's securities have had a closing bid price below $0.10 for ten consecutive trading days, which triggers a notice of delisting pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iii) (the "Low Priced Stocks Rule").
In addition to the $0.10 Rule delisting notice, the Company also currently fails to satisfy the requirement that the closing bid price of its securities remain at $1.00 or higher as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) (the "Minimum Bid Price Rule"). The Company has received a period of 180 calendar days to return to compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule, which compliance period expires on June 10, 2024. If the Company's securities fail to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule, Nasdaq will have an additional basis for delisting the securities.
Pursuant to the Letter, unless the Company requests an appeal of the Letter, trading of the Company's shares will be suspended at the opening of business on April 3, 2024, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), which will remove the Company's securities from listing and registration on the Nasdaq Stock Market.
The Company currently plans to appeal the Staff's determination to a Hearings Panel (the "Panel"). A hearing request will stay the suspension of the Company's securities and the filing of the Form 25-NSE pending the Panel's decision.
The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and may, if appropriate, consider implementing available options to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirements under the Nasdaq Listing Rules for continued listing on Nasdaq.
