- Received delisting notice from Nasdaq
- Risk of potential delisting from Nasdaq Capital Market
- Failed to regain compliance within initial 180-day period
Insights
This Nasdaq delisting notice represents a significant development that threatens SIMPPLE’s market accessibility and investor confidence. The company’s failure to maintain the $1 minimum bid price requirement over an extended period indicates deeper financial challenges. The upcoming panel hearing is important but historically, companies in similar situations face an uphill battle. Key concerns include:
- Potential forced transition to over-the-counter markets, resulting in reduced liquidity
- Risk of institutional investor exodus due to investment mandate restrictions
- Increased difficulty in raising future capital
While the temporary stay provides breathing room, without a concrete plan for share price improvement – possibly through reverse stock split or fundamental business enhancement – the delisting risk remains substantial. This situation typically triggers increased volatility and warrants careful investor consideration.
Singapore, Oct. 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SIMPPLE LTD. (Nasdaq: SPPL) (the “Company” or “SIMPPLE”), an advanced technology solution provider in the emerging property-technology (“PropTech”) space, today announced that on April 26, 2024, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that based on the closing bid price of the Company for the period from March 14, 2024 to April 25, 2024, the Company no longer meets the continued listing requirement of Nasdaq under Nasdaq Listing Rules 5550(a)(2) (the “Rule”), to maintain a minimum bid price of $1 per share. The Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until October 23, 2024, to regain compliance.
On October 24, 2024, the Company received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Staff of Nasdaq notifying the Company that, the Company has not regained compliance with the Rule and was not eligible for a second 180 day period.
The Company intends to request a hearing before the Panel. Such a request will stay any delisting action in connection with the notice and allow the continued listing of the Company’s Ordinary Shares on The Nasdaq Capital Market until the Panel renders a decision and any extension the panel grants. At the hearing, the Company intends to present a plan to regain compliance with the Rule and request that the Panel allow the Company additional time within which to regain compliance. While the Company believes that it will be able to present a viable plan to regain compliance, there can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, or that the Company’s plans to exercise diligent efforts to maintain the listing of its common stock on Nasdaq will be successful.
