Lixiang Education Received Notice of Failure to Satisfy Continued Listing Rule

LISHUI, China, May 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lixiang Education Holding Co., Ltd. (NASDAQ:LXEH), a prestigious private education service provider in China, today announced that it received a written notice (the "Notice") from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Global Market on May 7, 2024 indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Listing Rule 5450(a)(1)(the "Minimum Bid Price Rule"), which requires the Company to maintain a minimum bid price of US$1.00 per share.

The Minimum Bid Price Rule requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of US$1.00 per share, and Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet this requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days. Based on the closing bid price of the Company from March 21, 2024 to May 6, 2024, the Company no longer meets the requirement of the Minimum Bid Price Rule. In accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been provided 180 calendar days, or until November 4, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule. To regain compliance, the Company's securities must have a closing bid price of at least US$1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days during the 180-day period or prior to November 4, 2024. In the event that the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule by November 4, 2024, the Company may be eligible for additional time.

The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of its securities between now and November 4, 2024.

The Notice is only notification of deficiency, not of imminent delisting, and has no current effect on the listing or trading of the Company's securities on the Nasdaq Global Market.
