Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
As previously reported, Soligenix, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) on June 23, 2023, stating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”) because the Company’s common stock failed to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 for 30 consecutive trading days. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was afforded an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until December 20, 2023, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule. The Company was unable to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule prior to the expiration of the 180 calendar day period.
On December 21, 2023, the Company received written notice (the “Notice”) from Nasdaq stating that the Company has not complied with the Minimum Bid Price Rule and is not eligible for a second 180 day period because the Company does not comply with the $5,000,000 minimum stockholders’ equity initial listing requirement for The Nasdaq Capital Market. In that regard, the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 reported stockholders’ equity of $4,221,155. As a result, the Notice indicated that the Company’s common stock would be suspended from trading on Nasdaq unless the Company requests a hearing before a hearings panel by December 28, 2023. The Company intends to timely request a hearing, which will stay any trading suspension of the Company’s common stock until completion of the Nasdaq hearing process and expiration of any additional extension period granted by the panel following the hearing.
The Company expects the hearing to be held within 45 days of the Company’s request for the hearing, pursuant to the Nasdaq Listing Rules. At or prior to the hearing, the Company intends to present its plans to Nasdaq to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rules.
There continues to be no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock, which continues to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “SNGX.” The Company is working diligently to satisfy, and intends to regain compliance with, the Minimum Bid Price Rule. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule prior to the hearing date or at all or that Nasdaq will grant the Company an extension of time to achieve compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule. The Company intends to continue to monitor its closing bid price for its common stock and will continue considering all available options to comply with the Minimum Bid Price Rule as may be necessary.
