Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On June 14, 2024, Nutex Health Inc. (the “Company”) received notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that a Nasdaq Hearings Panel had granted the Company an exception until July 22, 2024 (the ”Exception”) to effect a reverse stock split of its common stock (“Common Stock”), once approved by the board and the Company’s stockholders, and regain compliance with the $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). In the event the Company fails to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by July 22, 2024, its securities will be delisted. The Exception was granted following the Nasdaq Hearings Panel’s review of a questionnaire (the “Expedited Review Questionnaire”) submitted by the Company to Nasdaq on May 29, 2024. On June 17, 2024, the Company’s stockholders approved a reverse stock split in the range of 1-2 to 1-16, with the ratio within the range to be determined by the board within one year of stockholder approval.
As previously disclosed, on May 22, 2023, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq indicating that, for thirty consecutive business days prior to the date of such letter, the bid price for the Common Stock had closed below the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. Subsequently, on November 21, 2023, the Company was provided an additional 180 calendar day period, or until May 20, 2024, to regain compliance. On April 10, 2024, the Company effected a reverse stock split at a ratio of 1-15. However, on May 21, 2024, the Company received a letter from the staff of Nasdaq (“Staff”) stating that the Company has not regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
On May 23, 2024, the Company submitted a request for a hearing to appeal the Staff’s delisting determination and Nasdaq notified the Company that the delisting action has been stayed, pending a final decision by the Nasdaq Hearings Panel. The Nasdaq Hearings Panel offered the Company an expedited review process, which required the Company to complete the Expedited Review Questionnaire regarding the Company’s plan to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
There can be no assurance that effecting a reverse stock split will result in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and the Company cannot predict the effect that a reverse stock split would have on the market price for shares of its Common Stock.
