Notice of Delisting or Failure
to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of
Listing |
On February 21, 2023, Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corporation (“Adamis”
or the “Company”) received formal notice from The Nasdaq Stock
Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel
(the “Panel”) had granted the Company’s request for continued
listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to the Company
evidencing compliance with all applicable criteria for continued
listing, including the $1.00 bid price requirement set forth in
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5500(a)(2) (the “Rule”), by no later than June
26, 2023 (the “Compliance Period”). The Company’s continued listing
is subject to the Company’s satisfaction of certain interim
milestones, including the timely undertaking of certain corporate
actions during the Compliance Period, including seeking stockholder
approval for a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock,
and effecting the reverse stock split if required to achieve a
closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten
consecutive business days prior to the expiration of the Compliance
Period. While the Company is taking definitive steps to timely
evidence compliance with the terms of the Panel’s decision, there
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to do so.
As disclosed by the Company in Current Reports on Form 8-K filed on
January 4, 2022, and June 30, 2022, the Company was previously
notified by Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Department that the
Company failed to satisfy the Rule and, in accordance with the
Nasdaq Listing Rules, was granted two consecutive 180-calendar day
grace periods, ultimately through December 27, 2022, to regain
compliance with the Rule. The Company did not evidence compliance
with the Rule by December 27, 2022, and thereafter requested a
hearing before the Panel to address the deficiency. The Panel’s
February 21, 2023, decision follows such hearing.

Item 7.01 |
Regulation FD Disclosure. |
On February 22, 2023, Adamis issued a press release announcing the
Company’s receipt of the Panel’s decision, which granted the
Company an extension through June 26, 2023, to evidence compliance
with all applicable criteria for continued listing on The Nasdaq
Capital Market, including the $1.00 bid price requirement set forth
in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5500(a)(2). A copy of the press release
regarding receipt of the Panel’s notice is attached hereto as
Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The press
release and the information set forth therein shall not be deemed
to be filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise be
subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed
to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
Cautionary Note Regarding
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements
within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995, that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors
that may cause such forward-looking statements not to be realized.
These forward looking statements include, but are not limited to,
statements concerning the Panel’s decision to grant the Company
additional time to regain compliance with the Rule and the
Company’s ability to timely comply with the terms of the extension
and regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing requirements within
the Compliance Period. Such forward-looking statements reflect the
Company’s current views and assumptions and are not guarantees of
future performance. Risks and uncertainties that could cause future
events to differ from those anticipated by such forward-looking
statements include, without limitation: whether the Company will be
able to take the actions required to timely comply with the terms
of the extension; whether the Company’s stockholders will approve a
reverse stock split of the Common Stock; and other developments
affecting the Company. These risks, uncertainties and other factors
could cause actual results to differ materially from those referred
to in the forward-looking statements. There are no assurances that
we will be able to regain compliance with the Rule within the
applicable extension period. You should not place undue reliance on
any forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking
statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and
except as may be required by applicable law, we undertake no
obligation to update or release publicly the results of any
revisions to these forward-looking statements or to reflect events
or circumstances arising after the date of this Report. Certain of
these risks and additional risks, uncertainties, and other factors
are described in greater detail in the Company’s filings from time
to time with the SEC, including its annual report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2021 and subsequent filings with the
SEC, which Adamis strongly urges you to read and consider, all of
which are available free of charge on the SEC's web site at
