Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On February 22, 2024, Forward Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) received notice (the “Equity Deficiency Notice”) from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that the Company’s stockholders equity as reported in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2023 (the “Form 10-Q”), did not satisfy the continued listing requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires that a listed company’s stockholders’ equity be at least $2,500,000 (“Nasdaq Stockholders’ Equity Rule”). As reported in the Company’s Form 10-Q, the stockholders’ equity of the Company was $2,312,852 as of December 31, 2023.

 

As previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K on February 5, 2024 (the “Current Report”), the Company received notice from Nasdaq that it had failed to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) by failing to maintain a minimum bid price for its common stock of at least $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days during the 180 day grace period to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Also as previously disclosed on the Current Report, unless the Company timely requested a hearing before an independent Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), the Company’s securities would be subject to delisting. On February 6, 2024, the Company timely requested a hearing and the hearing is scheduled for April 9, 2024.

 

The Equity Deficiency Notice informed the Company that the Panel will be considering the Company’s non-compliance with the Nasdaq Stockholders’ Equity Rule in rendering its decision regarding the Company’s continued listing with Nasdaq. Nasdaq also informed the Company that it is instructed to present its views with respect to its failure to meet the Nasdaq Stockholders’ Equity Rule pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(d) to the Panel at the hearing.

 

While the appeal process is pending, the Company’s common stock will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market until the hearing process concludes and the Panel issues a written decision. There are no assurances that a favorable decision will be obtained from the Panel or that we will regain compliance with the requirements to remain listed on Nasdaq.
