Peregrine
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) recently attended a hearing before the
NASDAQ Hearings Panel (the “Panel”)
pursuant to its previously disclosed intent to request a hearing before the Panel in order to (i) present its plan to regain compliance
with the $1.00 minimum closing bid price requirement set forth in the NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(a)(2)
(the
“Minimum Bid Price Requirement”)
and (ii) request that the Panel allow the Company additional time to implement
the plan. On June 1, 2017, the Company received a decision letter from the NASDAQ Office of General Counsel stating that the Panel
has granted the Company until no later than July 21, 2017 to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, subject
to certain conditions, including but not limited to, having evidenced a closing bid price of $1.00 or more for a minimum of ten
prior consecutive trading days.
As
previously disclosed, the Company’s stockholders approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock at a
ratio of up to 1-for-7, to be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in its sole discretion. However, if the Company
chooses to effect a reverse stock split in order to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, it must do so no
later than July 7, 2017, in order to
evidence a closing bid price of $1.00 or more for a minimum of ten prior consecutive
trading days on or before July 21, 2017.
