Nasdaq Notifications of Noncompliance

 

On October 28, 2022, the Company received a letter from the Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Staff (“Staff”) indicating that it no longer complied with the $50 million in market value of listed securities standard for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A) and that it also did not comply with either of the two alternative standards of Listing Rule 5450(b), the equity standard and the total assets and total revenue standard. On April 19, 2023, Nasdaq approved the Company’s application to transfer the listing of its common stock and warrants from the Nasdaq Global Market to the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Capital Market”), effective April 21, 2023, on the basis that the Company complied with the Net Income standard for the Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(3) for the year ended December 31, 2022. The transfer of the listing resolved the October 28, 2022 noncompliance notification.

On November 2, 2022, the Company received a letter from the Staff indicating that it did not meet the requirement to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share, which is imposed by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market and by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Bid Price Requirement”) and that the Company had until May 1, 2023 to regain compliance. On May 2, 2023, as a result of not regaining compliance with the Bid Price Requirement, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq notifying us that the Company’s common stock would be subject to delisting from Nasdaq unless it timely requested a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) and submitted a plan of compliance. The Company submitted a Plan, which was approved by the Panel, giving Leafly until October 30, 2023 to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement. On September 12, 2023, the Company implemented a one-for-twenty reverse split of the Company’s common stock (Note 11), and on September 29, 2023, the Company received formal notice from Nasdaq confirming that the Company regained compliance with the Bid Price Requirement, would continue to be listed and traded on the Capital Market and the listing matter was closed.

 

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550 requires a Company listed on the Capital Market to continuously meet at least one of the following requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b) (the “Continued Listing Standards”):

 

Continued Listing Standard

 

Requirement

 

Leafly's Position as of December 31, 2023

 

 

 

 

 

“Stockholders’ Equity”

 

Minimum $2.5 million

 

Negative $12.5 million

 

 

 

 

“Market Value of Listed Securities”

 

Minimum $35 million

 

$10.8 million

 

 

 

 

“Net Income”

 

Minimum $500 thousand from continuing operations – most recent fiscal year or in two of three of last three fiscal years

 

Loss of $9.5 million

 

 

 

 

Although we have not yet received a notification from Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Staff ("Staff") confirming noncompliance, as shown above, the Company did not comply with the Continued Listing Standards at December 31, 2023. Should we receive the Staff’s notification of noncompliance, the Company will have the right to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s Stockholders’ Equity and/or Market Value of Listed Securities standards. As provided in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(2)(D), the Staff will not accept a compliance plan for deficiencies in net income from continuing operations since compliance requires stated levels of net income during completed fiscal years and therefore can only be demonstrated through audited financial statements. If the Company submits a compliance plan, and if it is accepted by Nasdaq, the Staff may grant the Company an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the Staff’s notification for the Company to evidence compliance.

 

To comply with the Stockholders’ Equity standard, the value of Leafly’s stockholders’ equity must exceed $2.5 million on or before the end of any extension period the Company may receive from the Staff. To comply with the Market Value of Listed Securities standard, the total market value of Leafly’s listed securities, calculated as Leafly’s total shares outstanding multiplied by the daily closing bid price, must be $35.0 million or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days at any time before the end of any extension the Company may receive from the Staff. If the Company does not comply with the Continued Listing Standards prior to the expiration of any extension that may be granted by the Staff, or if the Staff declines to grant an extension after reviewing the Company’s compliance plan submission, or if the Company does not submit a compliance plan after receiving the Staff’s notification, the Nasdaq Listing Rules require the Staff to provide written notification to us that Leafly’s securities will be delisted, subject to the right to appeal any such delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.
