Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On March 15, 2024, Atossa Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) informing the Company that it had regained compliance with the minimum closing bid price requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
As previously disclosed, on September 26, 2023, the Company was notified by Nasdaq that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because its common stock failed to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. The Company was initially given until On March 25, 2024 to regain compliance.
To regain compliance, the Company was required to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share for at least 10 consecutive trading days. This requirement was met on March 14, 2024. As a result, the Company’s common stock will continue to be listed and traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
