JE Cleantech Holdings Limited Announces Share Consolidation/Reverse Stock Split to Regain NASDAQ Compliance
SINGAPORE - (NewMediaWire) - November 1, 2023 - (ACN Newswire) - JE Cleantech Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: JCSE) (“JE Cleantech” or the “Company”), a Singapore-headquartered cleantech company, announced today that it has received formal notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that the Company has regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550 (a)(2) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital market. The Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) requires listed securities to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share for at least 10 consecutive business days.
To regain compliance, the Company initiated a 1-for-3 Share Consolidation so that each outstanding ordinary share became 1 share (“Reverse Stock Split”), and the total number of authorized Ordinary Shares was reduced from 15,020,000 to 5,006,666 and the par value per share increased from $0.001 to S$0.003.
Following the Reverse Stock Split, the daily closing bid price of the Company’s ordinary shares remained above $1.00 per share for ten consecutive business days from October 16, 2023 to October 27, 2023. Consequently, the Company is now in compliance with all applicable Nasdaq listing standards and the prior bid price deficiency matter is now closed.
