Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
As previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K on August 4, 2023, Clene Inc. (the “Company”) received a notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock was below the minimum $1.00 per share per share requirement for the last 30 consecutive business days (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company had a period of 180 calendar days, or until January 29, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
On January 30, 2024, the Company received a notice from Nasdaq that, while the Company has not regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), it is eligible for an additional 180 calendar day period, or until July 29, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement (the “January Notice”). The January Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock and its common stock will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “CLNN.”
Nasdaq’s determination to grant an additional 180 calendar day period for the Company to regain compliance is based on the Company meeting the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and on the Company’s written notice to Nasdaq on January 16, 2024 of its intention to cure the deficiency during the additional 180-day compliance period, including by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If at any time during this additional 180-day compliance period, the bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company with a written confirmation of compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by July 29, 2024, Nasdaq will provide written notification to the Company that its common stock will be delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel.
The Company intends to actively monitor the bid price for its common stock between now and July 29, 2024, and will consider its available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. There can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement or maintain compliance with any of the other Nasdaq continued listing requirements.
