BUENA PARK, Calif., March 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Yoshiharu Global Co. (NASDAQ:YOSH) ("Yoshiharu" or the "Company"), a restaurant operator specializing in authentic Japanese ramen & rolls, today announced that it has received a notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") notifying the Company that it has regained compliance with the minimum stockholders' equity requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). The Company's security will continue to be listed and traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market.
As previously disclosed, the Company was notified by Nasdaq that it was out of compliance with Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires that the Company maintain stockholders' equity of at least $2,500,000 for continued listing, or to meet the alternatives of market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations. The Company did not originally regain compliance within the applicable timeframe to cure such deficiency and had scheduled an appeal of its delisting with a Hearings Panel for April 1, 2025.
On March 27, 2025, Nasdaq notified the Company that it had regained compliance with Rule 5550(b)(1). As a result, the hearing scheduled for April 1, 2025 has been cancelled and the Company's securities will continue to be listed and traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market.
Based on the Company's financing commitments, debt restructuring and additional financing commitments announced on March 20, 2025, and March 26, 2025, respectively, Nasdaq has determined that the Company complies with the Minimum Stockholder's Equity Requirement and this matter is now closed.
