HUB Cyber Security Announces Receipt of Nasdaq Notification Regarding Market Value of Listed Securities Requirement
TEL AVIV, Israel, Jan. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HUB Cyber Security Ltd. (NASDAQ:HUBC) ("HUB" or the "Company"), a global leader in confidential computing and secured data fabric technologies, today announced that it received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq"), notifying the Company that it is currently not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2), which requires the Company to maintain a minimum Market Value of Listed Securities of US$35 million ("MVLS") for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market (the "MVLS Requirement"). This press release is issued pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt of a deficiency notification. The notification has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company's ordinary shares, which will continue to trade uninterrupted on Nasdaq under the ticker "HUBC."
Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company has a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until July 20, 2026 (the "Compliance Period"), to regain compliance with Nasdaq's MVLS Requirement. If at any time during the Compliance Period, the Company's MVLS closes at US$35 million or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company written confirmation of compliance and the matter will be closed. If the Company fails to regain compliance within the Compliance Period, the Company will receive written notification that its securities are subject to delisting, and it would have the right to a hearing before an independent panel pursuant to the procedures set forth in the applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules. The hearing request would stay any suspension or delisting action pending the conclusion of the hearing process. However, there can be no assurance, if the Company does appeal the delisting determination by Nasdaq to the hearings panel, that such appeal would be successful.
The Company intends to take all reasonable measures available to regain compliance with MVLS Requirement under the Nasdaq Listing Rules and to remain listed on Nasdaq. However, there can be no assurances that the Company would ultimately be able to regain compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
