JX Luxventure Limited Receives Nasdaq Delisting Notice for Failing to Maintain a $1.00 Share Price and Requested and Granted a Hearing Scheduled for May 25, 2023.
Earlier, on October 24, 2022, the Company received its first letter from Nasdaq (the "Notice"), notifying the Company that based upon the closing bid price of its common stock for the last 30 consecutive business days preceding the Notice, the Company was not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement. The Notice provided the Company a period of 180 calendar days from the date of the Notice, or until April 24, 2023, as set forth in Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) (the "Compliance Period"), to regain compliance with Minimum Bid Requirement. The Company did not regain compliance with Minimum Bid Requirement by April 24, 2023, and, as stated in the Determination Letter, the Staff believes that the Company is not eligible for an additional 180-day cure period.

On April 26, 2023, the Company submitted a request for a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel to present its plan to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement. On April 27, 2023, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq granting the appeal and scheduling the hearing for May 25, 2023. This hearing request will stay the suspension of the Company's securities and the filing of Form 25-NSE pending the Nasdaq Hearings Panel's decision.
The Company is implementing its plan to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement and is working to meet all other continued listing requirements for the Nasdaq Capital Market. In that regard, on April 26, 2023, the Company effected a one-for-ten (1-for-10) reverse stock split (the "Reverse Stock Split") of its common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company believes that it will be able to regain the Minimum Bid Requirement prior to the date of the hearing if the closing bid price of its common stock is at or above
In the meantime, the Company's common stock will continue to be listed and traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market, pending a final decision by the Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
