Item 3.01

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

On December 22, 2023, DBV Technologies S.A. (the “Company”) reported that it had received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) on December 20, 2023 regarding the Company’s failure to comply with Nasdaq Continued Listing
Rule 5550(a)(2) (“Rule 5550(a)(2)”), which requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. A failure to comply with Rule 5550(a)(2) exists when listed securities fail to maintain a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. Under Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company automatically was provided a period of 180 calendar days, until June 17, 2024, to regain compliance.

On June 18, 2024, the Company was notified by the Listing Qualifications Department that Nasdaq granted the Company’s request to transfer the listing of its American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) from The Nasdaq Global Select Market tier to The Nasdaq Capital Market tier, and that Nasdaq granted the Company’s request for a second 180-calendar day period, or until December 16, 2024 (the “Second Compliance Period”), to regain compliance with the $1.00 bid price requirement, as set forth in Rule 5550(a)(2). To regain compliance with such minimum price requirement, the Company must evidence a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. The transfer of the listing of the ADSs from The Nasdaq Global Select Market tier to The Nasdaq Capital Market tier will take effect with the open of business on June 20, 2024. The transfer is not expected to impact trading in the ADSs, which will continue to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol “DBVT.”

In the event that the Company is not able to cure the bid price deficiency during the Second Compliance Period, Nasdaq will provide written notice that the ADSs will be delisted; however, the Company may request a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), which request, if timely made, would stay any further suspension or delisting action by Nasdaq pending the conclusion of the hearing process and expiration of any extension that may be granted by the Panel.

Although the Company will use all reasonable efforts to achieve compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2), there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with that rule or will otherwise be in compliance with other Nasdaq listing criteria.
