On July 2, 2024, Alpine 4 Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) received written notification from the Listing Qualifications Department Staff (“Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) granting the Company’s request for an additional 180-day extension to regain compliance under the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), the bid price requirement. The Company now has until December 23, 2024, to meet this requirement.

Nasdaq’s granting of the additional 180-day period to regain compliance with the bid price requirement has no immediate effect on the continued listing status of the Company’s Class A common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market LLC under the trading symbol “ALPP.” If at any time during the additional 180-day extension, the bid price of the Company’s Class A common stock closes at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten (10) consecutive business days, the Nasdaq Listing staff may provide the Company with written confirmation of compliance and the bid price issue may be resolved.

The Company was first notified by Nasdaq of its failure to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share under Rule 5550(a)(2) on December 27, 2023, and was given until June 24, 2024, to regain compliance. On June 12, 2024, the Company sought an additional 180-calendar-day period in which to regain compliance with the bid price requirement, which request was granted on July 2, 2024.

The Company intends to continue to monitor the bid price for its shares of Class A common stock between now and the expiration of the second compliance period and will consider all available options to resolve the deficiency including a reverse stock split, if necessary. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain or maintain compliance with the Nasdaq listing criteria or meet the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market.

The Staff indicated that its determination to grant the additional 180-day period is based on the Company meeting the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and other applicable requirements for initial listing on the Capital Market, 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 the Company does not meet the minimum bid requirement during the additional 180-day extension, Nasdaq will provide written notification to the Company that its Class A common stock will be subjected to delisting. At such time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (“the Panel”). There can be no assurance that if the Company does appeal a subsequent delisting determination, that such appeal would be successful.

On a separate note, the Company participated in its Hearing with the Nasdaq Panel on July 2, 2024, in relation to its delinquent public reports, namely the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024. The Company was informed at the Hearing that the Panel’s determination can take several weeks. As such, the Company will provide additional information to Shareholders upon receipt by the Company of the Panel’s decision.

As stated previously, the Company is working diligently with its auditors to complete the Annual and Quarterly Reports and to file them with the SEC as soon as possible to regain full compliance with the reporting requirement.
