| Item 3.01 | Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing |
On May 3, 2023, Cascadia Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), received a letter (the “Letter”) from the staff at The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, for the 30 consecutive trading days prior to the date of the Letter, the Company’s Minimum Value of Listed Securities (“MVLS”) was below the minimum of $50 million required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A). The Letter is only a notification of deficiency, not of imminent delisting, and has no current effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s securities on Nasdaq.
In accordance with Nasdaq listing rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company has 180 calendar days, or until October 30, 2023, to regain compliance. The Letter notes that to regain compliance, the Company’s MVLS must close at or above $50 million for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during the compliance period, which ends October 30, 2023. The Letter further notes that if the Company is unable to satisfy the MVLS requirement prior to such date, the Company may be eligible to transfer the listing of its securities to The Nasdaq Capital Market (provided that the Company then satisfies the requirements for continued listing on that market).
If the Company does not regain compliance by October 30, 2023, Nasdaq staff will provide written notice to the Company that its securities are subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal any such delisting determination to a hearings panel.
The Company intends to actively monitor the Company’s MVLS between now and October 30, 2023, and may, if appropriate, evaluate available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the MVLS requirement. While the Company is exercising diligent efforts to maintain the listing of its securities on Nasdaq, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain or maintain compliance with Nasdaq listing standards.
