The Registrant was provided 180 calendar days, or until April 9, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule.

 

Since then, Nasdaq has determined that for 10 consecutive business days, from December 26, 2023 through January 9, 2024, the closing bid price of the Registrant’s ordinary shares has been at $1.00 per share or greater. On January 10, 2024, Nasdaq notified the Registrant that the Registrant has regained compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) and the matter is now closed.
