Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On March 20, 2023, Vyant Bio, Inc. (the “Company”) received a written notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the $1.00 Minimum Bid Price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Bid Price Requirement”). The Notice does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company’s common stock from The Nasdaq Capital Market.

 

The Nasdaq Listing Rules require listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share and, based upon the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the last 30 consecutive business days, the Company no longer meets this requirement. The Nasdaq rules provide the Company a compliance period of 180 calendar days from the date of the Notice in which to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement. As a result, the date by which the Company has to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement is September 18, 2023. If at any time prior to September 18, 2023 the bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days (or longer at Nasdaq’s discretion), the Nasdaq staff (the “Staff”) will provide the Company with a written confirmation of compliance and the matter will be closed.

 

Alternatively, if the Company fails to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement prior to the expiration of the initial period, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period, provided (i) it meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market (except for the Bid Price Requirement) and (ii) it provides written notice to Nasdaq of its intention to cure this deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement prior to the expiration of the initial period, and if it appears to the Staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is not otherwise eligible, the Staff will provide the Company with written notification that its securities are subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market. At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a hearings panel.

 

The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and is considering its options with respect to compliance with the Bid Price Requirement. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement during the 180-day compliance period, secure a second period of 180 days to regain compliance, or maintain compliance with any other Nasdaq listing requirements.
