If the Company does not regain compliance by May 31, 2026, Nasdaq has indicated that it will issue a written notice of delisting, at which time the Company may appeal Nasdaq’s determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel. The Company intends to regain compliance within the extension period.
A copy of the Nasdaq letter dated March 2, 2026 is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
