Smart for Life Provides Update Following Nasdaq Delisting Due to Audit Delays; Reports Plans to Reapply to Nasdaq Upon Full Compliance
September 20 2024 - 4:40PM
Smart for Life, Inc. (OTC: SMFL) (“Smart for Life” or the
“Company”), a distinguished leader in the Health & Wellness
sector specializing in the marketing and manufacturing of
nutritional supplements and foods, today provided an update
following its delisting from Nasdaq, which was primarily due to
delays in the completion of its audit. The Company’s common stock
continues to be quoted on the OTC Markets, and the ticker symbol
“SMFL” remains unchanged. Management believes this move to the OTC
Markets is temporary and the Company plans to reapply for listing
as soon as it is fully compliant with the listing requirements.
“We are working diligently to complete our audit
and believe that several key factors contributing to the delay were
outside the control of management and the Company,” stated Darren
Minton, CEO of Smart for Life. “Despite these challenges, we are
committed to addressing the outstanding issues and returning to
Nasdaq as soon as possible. The Company continues to execute its
previously announced strategic plan including the prospective
acquisitions in our pipeline, as well as the completion of our
successful restructuring program which resulted in a significant
improvement in the Company’s balance sheet and net stockholders’
equity. We remain confident in our long-term strategy for growth in
the health and wellness market.”
The management team is working closely with
auditors and advisors to complete the filing of its annual report
on Form 10-K, which is expected in the coming days. The Company
will provide further updates to shareholders on its progress.
