Regulatory News:
Aptorum Group Limited (Nasdaq: APM, Euronext Paris: APM)
(“Aptorum Group” or “Aptorum”), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical
company dedicated to meeting unmet medical needs in oncology,
autoimmune diseases and infectious diseases, today announced that
it has received two notifications from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC
(“Nasdaq”) Listing Qualifications Department informing the Company
that (i) it has regained compliance with the minimum bid price
requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), and (ii) it does
not currently meet the minimum market value of publicly held shares
(MVPHS) of $5,000,000 under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(C).
The Nasdaq deficiency letter under Rule 5450(b)(1)(C) has no
immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s Class A Ordinary
Shares, and its Class A Ordinary Shares will continue to trade on
The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “APM” at this time. In
accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(D), the Company has
been given 180 calendar days, or until August 7, 2023, to regain
compliance with Rule 5450(b)(1)(C). If at any time before August 7,
2023, the Company’s MVPHS closes at $5,000,000 or more for a
minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide
written confirmation that the Company has achieved compliance and
the matter will be closed.
If the Company does not regain compliance with Rule
5450(b)(1)(C) by August 7, 2023, the Company will receive written
notification that its securities are subject to delisting and the
Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Hearing’s
Panel. Alternatively, the Company may consider applying to transfer
the Class A Ordinary Shares to The Nasdaq Capital Market. The
Company intends to remain on the Nasdaq Global Market and will
actively monitor its MVPHS and will consider available options to
resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with Rule
5450(b)(1)(C).
