Item 8.01 | Other Events. |
As previously disclosed, on March 8, 2024, Plus Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), notifying the Company that it no longer complied with the requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) to maintain a minimum of $2.5 million in stockholders’ equity (the “Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement”) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market or the alternative requirements of having a market value of listed securities of $35 million or net income from continuing operations of $500,000 in the most recently completed fiscal year or two of the last three most recently completed fiscal years.
On September 5, 2024, Nasdaq notified the Company that it had not regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) and that, as a result, unless the Company timely requested an appeal of this determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), Nasdaq would move to suspend trading of the Company’s common stock and to have the Company’s shares of common stock delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company timely requested a hearing before the Panel, and the hearing was held on October 22, 2024.
On October 30, 2024, the Company received a decision from the Panel, notifying the Company that it had until March 4, 2025, to demonstrate compliance with the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement, subject to Nasdaq’s right to reconsider the terms of the Panel’s decision.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to demonstrate compliance with the applicable Nasdaq listing rules.
