Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Intelligent Bio Solutions Inc. (the “Company”) on November 17, 2023, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) on November 16, 2023 (the “November Letter”), regarding its non-compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The letter notified the Company that its stockholders’ equity, reported at $1,236,558 in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30, 2023, did not meet the Nasdaq Capital Market’s minimum stockholders’ equity requirement of $2,500,000 for continued listing as per Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Stockholders’ Equity Requirement”). Nasdaq gave the Company until January 2, 2024, to submit a plan to regain compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1).
On December 15, 2023, the Company submitted a compliance plan to Nasdaq that included a pro forma balance sheet as of October 31, 2023 (the “Balance Sheet”). The Balance Sheet showed that the Company’s stockholders’ equity as of October 31, 2023, was $4,240,629, which was primarily the result of the of a public offering of the Company’s securities that closed on October 4, 2023. The Balance Sheet was also attached to a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on December 18, 2023 (the “December 8-K”).
On January 2, 2024, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq (the “January Letter”) stating that based on the December 8-K, the Staff had determined that the Company complies with the Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), but that if the Company fails to evidence compliance upon filing its Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2023, the Company may be subject to delisting. The January Letter also noted, as did the November Letter, that as of November 15, 2023, the Company did not meet either alternative to the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement, which alternatives require either a $35 million market value of listed securities or $500,000 of net income from continuing operations, as set forth in Listing Rules 5550(b)(2) or 5550(b)(3), respectively.
