SHANGHAI, May 30, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hywin Holdings Ltd. (“Hywin”, or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: HYW) today announced that it has received a notification letter dated May 28, 2024 (the "Notice") from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market Inc. (the "Nasdaq"), indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Rule 5450(a)(1) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules as the closing bid price of the Company's American depositary shares ("ADSs") has been below US$1.00 per ADS for a period of 30 consecutive trading days.

In the event the Company does not regain compliance by November 25, 2024, subject to the determination by the staff of Nasdaq, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180-day compliance period if it meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards, with the exception of the minimum bid price requirement. In this case, the Company will need to provide a written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, including by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.
