FOXO Technologies Inc. Announces Receipt of Second Notice of Non-Compliance from NYSE American
August 18 2023 - 04:15PM
Business Wire
On August 16, 2023, FOXO Technologies Inc. (NYSEAM: FOXO) (the
“Company”) received a second written notice (the “Notice”) from the
NYSE American LLC (the “NYSE American”) stating that it is not in
compliance with the continued listing standard set forth in Section
1003(f)(v) of the NYSE American Company Guide (the “Company Guide”)
because the Company’s Class A common stock was selling for a low
price per share for a substantial period of time, which NYSE
American determined to be a 30-trading day average of less than
$0.20 per share.
The Notice stated that the Company’s continued listing is
predicated on it effecting a reverse stock split of its Class A
common stock or otherwise demonstrating sustained price improvement
within a reasonable period of time, which NYSE American has
determined to be no later than February 16, 2024. However, NYSE
American may take accelerated delisting action that would pre-empt
the cure period in the event that the Class A common stock trades
at levels viewed to be abnormally low.
As previously disclosed, on June 12, 2023, the Company received
a notice from the NYSE American stating that it is not in
compliance with the continued listing standards set forth in
Section 1003(a)(i) of the Company Guide since the Company reported
stockholders’ deficit of $(30,000) at March 31, 2023, and losses
from continuing operations and/or net losses in its two most recent
fiscal years ended December 31, 2022. Section 1003(a)(i) of the
Company Guide requires a listed company to have stockholders’
equity of $2 million or more if the listed company has reported
losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in two of its
three most recent fiscal years. On July 12, 2023, the Company
submitted a plan of compliance (the “Plan”) addressing how it
intends to regain compliance with the stockholders’ equity
requirement by December 12, 2024. If the Plan is not accepted by
NYSE American, or if the Company does not make progress consistent
with the Plan, or if the Company fails to regain compliance by
December 12, 2024, the NYSE American may commence delisting
procedures.
The Company’s Class A common stock will continue to be listed on
the NYSE American while the Company evaluates its various
alternatives to regain compliance with Section 1003(f)(v) of the
Company Guide, including to effect a reverse stock split of its
issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock, which
corporate action was previously approved by stockholders at the
Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held on May 26, 2023. The
Company will also continue to be included in the list of NYSE
American noncompliant issuers, and the below compliance (“.BC”)
indicator will continue to be disseminated with the Company’s
ticker symbol. The Company’s receipt of the Notice from the NYSE
American does not affect the Company’s business, operations or
reporting requirements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission.

statements other than statements of historical fact contained
herein, including statements regarding the Notice, the Plan,
whether the Company will effect a reverse stock split of its issued

Company will regain compliance with the NYSE American’s continued
listing standards, and other statements identified by words such as
“will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “is
anticipated,” “estimated,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,”
“projection,” “outlook” or words of similar meaning, but the
absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not
forward-looking. Any such forward-looking statements are based upon
the current beliefs and expectations of the Company’s management
and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and
competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are
difficult to predict and generally beyond the Company’s control.
Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially
from the forward-looking statements in this press release,
including but not limited to the possibility that the Plan will not
be accepted by NYSE American, the Company will be unable to satisfy
other continued listing requirements of NYSE American for its Class
A common stock to maintain the listing of the Class A common stock
on NYSE American; the risk of changes in the competitive and highly
regulated industries in which FOXO operates; variations in
operating performance across competitors or changes in laws and
regulations affecting FOXO’s business; the ability to implement
FOXO’s business plans, forecasts, and other expectations; the
ability to continue as a going concern and obtain financing; the
risk that FOXO has a history of losses and may not achieve or
maintain profitability in the future; potential inability of FOXO
to establish or maintain relationships required to advance its
goals or to achieve its commercialization and development plans;
the enforceability of FOXO’s intellectual property, including its
patents and the potential infringement on the intellectual property
rights of others; and the risk of downturns and a changing
regulatory landscape in the highly competitive biotechnology
industry or in the markets or industries in which FOXO operates,
including the highly regulated insurance industry. The foregoing
list of factors is not exhaustive. Readers should carefully
consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and
uncertainties discussed in FOXO’s most recent reports on Forms 10-K
and 10-Q, particularly the “Risk Factors” sections of those
reports, and in other documents FOXO has filed, or will file, with
the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to
differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date
they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on
forward-looking statements, and FOXO assumes no obligation and do
not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events, or
otherwise.
