Item 8.01 Other Events.
As previously reported, on July 17, 2023, Staffing 360 Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, based upon the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the 30 consecutive business day period between June 1, 2023, through July 14, 2023, the Company did not meet the minimum bid price of $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). The letter also indicated that the Company would be provided with a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until January 15, 2024 (the “Compliance Period”), in which to regain compliance pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A).
On January 16, 2024, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that the Company has been granted an additional 180-day period, or until July 15, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. The new compliance period is an extension of the initial Compliance Period provided for in Nasdaq’s deficiency notice to the Company, dated July 17, 2023. Nasdaq’s determination was 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 the Company’s written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.
If compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement cannot be demonstrated by July 15, 2024, Nasdaq will provide written notification that the Company’s common stock could be delisted. In such event, Nasdaq rules permit the Company to appeal any delisting determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing rules or maintain its listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
