8-K: Predictive Oncology Receives Nasdaq Delisting Warning Due to Sub-$1.00 Share Price
Compliance Notice
Predictive Oncology Inc. has received a notice from Nasdaq regarding non-compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, triggering a 180-day period to regain compliance.
Summary
- Predictive Oncology Inc. received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC on July 8, 2025, indicating non-compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2).
- The non-compliance stems from the company's common stock bid price closing below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days.
- This notification does not have an immediate effect on the listing of the company's common stock.
- The company has a period of 180 calendar days, until January 5, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
- Compliance can be regained if the bid price of the common stock closes at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days.
- If compliance is not regained by January 5, 2026, the company may be eligible for additional time if it meets other continued listing requirements and provides written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency, potentially by effecting a reverse stock split.
- Failure to cure the deficiency or qualify for an extension could lead to notification of delisting, which the company may appeal.
- The company intends to actively monitor its common stock's bid price and consider available options to resolve the deficiency.
