| Item 3.01 | Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing. |
On October 4, 2024, Trevena, Inc. (the “Company”) received notice that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) had determined to delist the Company’s common stock from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) due to the Company’s failure to comply with the minimum stockholder’s equity requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Equity Standard Rule”). As previously disclosed, the Panel had provided the Company until October 2, 2024, to regain compliance with the Equity Standard Rule.
Trading in the Company’s common stock will be suspended on Nasdaq effective with the open of business on October 8, 2024. As a result, the Company expects its common stock to begin trading on the Pink Open Market operated by the OTC Markets Group, Inc. (commonly referred to as the “pink sheets”). There can be no assurance that a broker will continue to make a market in the Company’s common stock or that trading of the common stock will continue on an over-the-counter market or elsewhere.
| Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
On October 4, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing, among other things, the Panel’s delisting determination.
A copy of the press release is furnished hereto as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The information set forth in this Item 7.01 and furnished hereto as Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any other filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
