Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On January 10, 2025, Co-Diagnostics, Inc. (“CODX” or “the Company”) received a notice from Nasdaq Listing Qualifications department (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the last 30 consecutive business days had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share required for continued listing under Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The Company has a period of 180 calendar days, or until July 9, 2025 (the “Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). To regain compliance, the bid price of the Company’s common stock must close at $1 or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days before the Compliance Date.
The Nasdaq notification letter does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company’s common stock, and the stock will continue to trade uninterrupted on the The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “CODX”.
If the Company does not regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2) by the Compliance Date, the Company may be eligible for additional time. To qualify, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If the Company meets these requirements, the Staff will inform the Company that it has been granted an additional 180 calendar days. However, if it appears to the Staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, the Staff will provide notice that its securities will be subject to delisting.
The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price for its common stock and will consider available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).
