NASDAQ DELISTING NOTICE AND COMPANY APPEAL
On March 19, 2025, Zapp Electric Vehicles Group Limited (the “Company”) received a Staff Delisting Determination (the “Staff Determination”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), notifying the Company that Nasdaq has initiated the process of delisting the Company’s securities from the Nasdaq Capital Market as a result of the Company’s non-compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”), which requires primary securities listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market to maintain a minimum bid price of at least $1.00 per share. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet the minimum bid price requirement exists if a deficiency under the Listing Rule continues for a period of consecutive 30 business days. The Company is not eligible for a 180 day grace period under Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), in which to regain compliance, due to the fact that the Company cured a prior failure to comply with the Minimum Bid Price Rule by means of a reverse stock split in the previous twelve months.
On March 25, 2025, the Company appealed the Staff Determination by filing a request for oral hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5815. Per Rule 5815(a)(1)(B), this request has stayed the suspension of trading or delisting of the Company’s securities pending the hearing and the Panel’s decision. According to the Staff Determination, hearings are typically scheduled to occur approximately 30-45 days after the date of the issuer’s hearing request. In the meantime, the Company’s securities will continue to trade in the normal manner on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “ZAPP” and “ZAPPW.”
Per Listing Rule 5815(a)(5), the Company will submit to the Hearings Panel a written plan of compliance, including if necessary a commitment to effect a reverse stock split, and request that the Panel grant an exception to the listing standards for a limited time period, as permitted by Rule 5815(c)(1)(A). There can be no assurance, however, that the Panel will approve the Company’s plan to regain compliance and/or grant the requested exception, nor can there be any assurance that such plan will be successful if brought into effect.
The Company furnishes this report on Form 6-K to satisfy its obligation under Listing Rule 5810(b) to make public disclosure of the subject deficiency and of the Staff Determination within four business days thereof.
Forward-Looking Statements
