Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On March 13, 2025, LanzaTech Global, Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying it that, for the last 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock has been below the $1.00 per share minimum closing bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Rule”).
The notice has no immediate effect on the Company’s Nasdaq listing and its common stock will continue to be listed and trade under the symbol “LNZA.”
In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a period of 180 calendar days, or until September 9, 2025 (the “First Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during this 180-day period. If at any time before the First Compliance Date, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, subject to the discretion of the Nasdaq Listing Qualification Staff, Nasdaq will provide the Company with a written confirmation of compliance with the Bid Price Rule.
If the Company does not regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule by the First Compliance Date, the Company may be eligible for a second 180-day compliance period. To qualify, the Company would 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 Rule, and would need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the bid price deficiency during the second compliance period. If it appears to the Nasdaq staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency or if the Company is otherwise not eligible or fails to regain compliance during the second compliance period, Nasdaq will provide written notification to the Company that its common stock is subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal any such delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel.
The Company will continue to monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and will consider its available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule within the allotted compliance periods. There can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule, be successful in any appeal it may undertake, or be able to maintain compliance with any of the other continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market.
