Exhibit 99.1
AirNet Has Regained Compliance with
Nasdaq’s Minimum Bid Price Requirement
BEIJING, November 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/
-- AirNet Technology Inc., formerly known as AirMedia Group Inc. (“AirNet” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:
ANTE), an in-flight solution provider on connectivity, entertainment, and digital multimedia in China, today announced that
it received a notification letter (the “Notification Letter on Compliance”) from the Listing Qualifications Department
of The Nasdaq Stock Market Inc. (the “Nasdaq”) dated November 13, 2020, indicating that the Company has regained compliance
with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Rule 5550(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules (the “Minimum Bid Price
Requirement”).
As previously announced, the Company received
a notification letter from Nasdaq (the “Notification Letter on Deficiency”) on March 30, 2020, indicating that
the closing bid price per American depositary share (“ADS”), each representing ten ordinary shares of the Company,
had been below $1.00 for a period of 30 consecutive business days and that the Company did not meet the Minimum Bid Price
Requirement. The Notification Letter on Deficiency also noted that the Company has a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or
until September 28, 2020, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. Given the extraordinary market conditions,
the Company received a notification letter from Nasdaq (the “Notification Letter on Tolling of Compliance Periods”)
on April 17, 2020, stating Nasdaq’s determination to toll the compliance periods for bid price and market value of publicly
held shares requirements (collectively, the “Price-based Requirements”) through June 30, 2020. Given that the Company
had 163 calendar days remaining in its bid price compliance period as of April 16, 2020, the Company has 163 days since the reinstatement
of the Price-based Requirements on July 1, 2020, or until December 10, 2020 (the “Compliance Period”), to regain compliance
with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
Based on the Notification Letter on Deficiency
and the Notification Letter on Tolling of Compliance Periods, if at any time during the Compliance Period, the closing bid price
per ADS is at least $1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company a written confirmation
of compliance and the matter will be closed.
According to the Notification Letter on Compliance,
the staff of Nasdaq has determined that for the 20 consecutive business days, being from October 16 through November 12, 2020,
the closing bid price of the Company’s ADS has been at $1.00 per ADS or greater, and the Company has regained compliance
with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and the matter is now closed.
