Item 7.01 Other Regulation FD Disclosure
On September 18, 2024, Exicure, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release noting it received notice that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel granted an extension to continue the Company’s listing subject to the Company evidencing compliance with all applicable criteria for continued listing by November 14, 2024. That press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
Forward Looking Statement.
This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. There can be no assurance regarding our ability to comply with the Panel’s decision and the applicable listing criteria by the deadline or thereafter. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual outcomes to differ materially from the outcomes expressed or implied by this report. Such risks include, among others, the possibility we will not be able to cure existing listing deficiencies, the possibility of additional deficiencies, the risk that the Company may not adequately comply with the terms of the Panel’s decision, and the risk that Nasdaq will ultimately delist the Company's common stock. All such factors are difficult to predict and may be beyond the Company’s control. The Company undertakes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, except as required by law or regulation. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report.
