ReTo Eco-Solutions (Nasdaq: RETO) announced receiving a delisting determination notice from Nasdaq on January 29, 2025. The notice states that RETO's Class A shares failed to maintain the minimum bid price requirement of $1 over the previous 30 consecutive business days, violating Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).

Due to a reverse stock split conducted within the past year, the company is not eligible for any compliance period. The shares are scheduled for delisting on February 7, 2025. However, RETO plans to appeal this determination to a hearings panel, which will temporarily stay the suspension and delisting process. During the appeal, RETO shares will continue trading on Nasdaq, though there's no guarantee the panel will grant an extension or that the company will regain compliance.

ReTo Eco-Solutions (Nasdaq: RETO) ha annunciato di aver ricevuto un avviso di determinazione di delisting da Nasdaq il 29 gennaio 2025. L'avviso specifica che le azioni di Classe A di RETO non sono riuscite a mantenere il requisito di prezzo minimo di offerta di $1 per i precedenti 30 giorni lavorativi consecutivi, violando la Regola di Quotazione 5550(a)(2).

A causa di uno split azionario inverso effettuato nell'anno passato, l'azienda non è idonea per alcun periodo di conformità. Le azioni sono programmate per il delisting il 7 febbraio 2025. Tuttavia, RETO intende fare ricorso contro questa determinazione a un comitato di udienza, che sospenderà temporaneamente il processo di sospensione e delisting. Durante l'appello, le azioni RETO continueranno a essere negoziate su Nasdaq, sebbene non ci sia alcuna garanzia che il comitato concederà un'estensione o che l'azienda recupererà la conformità.

ReTo Eco-Solutions (Nasdaq: RETO) anunció la recepción de un aviso de determinación de exclusión de Nasdaq el 29 de enero de 2025. El aviso indica que las acciones de Clase A de RETO no lograron mantener el requisito de precio mínimo de oferta de $1 durante los últimos 30 días hábiles consecutivos, violando la Regla de Cotización 5550(a)(2).

Debido a una división de acciones inversa realizada en el último año, la empresa no es elegible para ningún período de cumplimiento. Las acciones están programadas para ser excluidas el 7 de febrero de 2025. Sin embargo, RETO planea apelar esta determinación ante un panel de audiencias, lo que detendrá temporalmente el proceso de suspensión y exclusión. Durante la apelación, las acciones de RETO continuarán cotizando en Nasdaq, aunque no hay garantía de que el panel conceda una extensión o de que la empresa recupere el cumplimiento.

ReTo Eco-Solutions (Nasdaq: RETO)는 2025년 1월 29일 Nasdaq으로부터 상장폐지 통지서를 받았다고 발표했습니다. 통지서에 따르면 RETO의 A급 주식은 지난 30일 연속으로 최소 입찰가인 $1을 유지하지 못해 상장 규정 5550(a)(2)를 위반했습니다.

지난 1년 간 진행된 액면분할로 인해 회사는 준수 기간에 대한 자격이 없습니다. 주식은 2025년 2월 7일 상장폐지가 예정되어 있습니다. 그러나 RETO는 이 결정을 청문회 패널에 항소할 계획이며, 이에 따라 일시적으로 정지 및 상장폐지 과정이 중단됩니다. 항소 기간 동안 RETO의 주식은 Nasdaq에서 계속 거래되지만, 패널이 연장을 승인하거나 회사가 준수를 회복할 것이라는 보장은 없습니다.

ReTo Eco-Solutions (Nasdaq: RETO) a annoncé avoir reçu un avis de détermination de radiation de Nasdaq le 29 janvier 2025. L'avis indique que les actions de Classe A de RETO n'ont pas réussi à maintenir le prix d'offre minimum de 1 $ pendant les 30 derniers jours de bourse consécutifs, violant ainsi la Règle de Cotation 5550(a)(2).

En raison d'une division inversée des actions effectuée au cours de l'année écoulée, l'entreprise n'est pas éligible à une période de conformité. Les actions doivent être radiées le 7 février 2025. Cependant, RETO prévoit de faire appel de cette décision devant un panel d'audition, ce qui suspendra temporairement le processus de suspension et de radiation. Pendant l'appel, les actions de RETO continueront à être négociées sur Nasdaq, bien qu'il n'y ait aucune garantie que le panel accordera une prolongation ou que l'entreprise retrouvera la conformité.

ReTo Eco-Solutions (Nasdaq: RETO) gab am 29. Januar 2025 bekannt, dass sie eine Mitteilung über die Abmeldung von Nasdaq erhalten haben. In der Mitteilung steht, dass die Klasse-A-Aktien von RETO es nicht geschafft haben, den Mindestgebotskurs von 1 $ über die letzten 30 aufeinander folgenden Handelstage aufrechtzuerhalten, was gegen die Zulassungsregel 5550(a)(2) verstößt.

Aufgrund eines durchgeführten aktienumgekehrten Splits im letzten Jahr ist das Unternehmen nicht für einen Compliance-Zeitraum berechtigt. Die Aktien sind für eine Abmeldung am 7. Februar 2025 vorgesehen. RETO plant jedoch, gegen diese Entscheidung vor einem Anhörungsgremium Berufung einzulegen, was den Suspendierungs- und Abmeldungsprozess vorübergehend aussetzen wird. Während des Berufungsverfahrens werden die RETO-Aktien weiterhin an der Nasdaq gehandelt, es gibt jedoch keine Garantie, dass das Gremium eine Verlängerung gewährt oder dass das Unternehmen die Compliance wiedererlangt.

Insights

The receipt of a Nasdaq delisting notice for RETO represents a critical development with severe implications for both the company and its investors. The situation is particularly grave as RETO is not eligible for the standard 180-day compliance period due to having executed a reverse stock split within the past year - a clear indication of ongoing financial distress.

The technical aspects of this situation are concerning: RETO's inability to maintain the minimum bid requirement even after a reverse split suggests fundamental market skepticism about the company's value proposition and future prospects. While the appeal to the Panel will temporarily stay the delisting process, historical precedents show that companies in similar situations face an uphill battle to maintain their listing status.

For current shareholders, this development presents multiple risks:

  • Potential forced selling by institutional investors with mandates requiring Nasdaq-listed securities
  • Reduced liquidity and wider bid-ask spreads if trading moves to over-the-counter markets
  • Decreased access to capital markets for future fundraising
  • Heightened volatility during the appeal process

The timing is particularly challenging given the broader context of increased scrutiny of Chinese companies listed on U.S. exchanges. The company's status as a manufacturer of eco-friendly materials equipment in China adds another layer of complexity to its market position and regulatory compliance requirements.

The accelerated timeline for potential delisting (February 7, 2025) and lack of standard compliance period options significantly constrain RETO's strategic alternatives. While the appeal process provides a temporary reprieve, the company faces substantial challenges in presenting a viable plan to regain and maintain compliance with Nasdaq's listing requirements.

BEIJING, Feb. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ReTo Eco-Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: RETO) ("ReTo" or the "Company"), a manufacturer of equipment for production of eco-friendly materials in China, today announced that the Company received a delisting determination notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") on January 29, 2025, notifying the Company that given its Class A shares, par value US$0.10 per share (the "Class A Shares"), had a closing bid price at less than $1 over the previous 30 consecutive business days, the Company is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement as set forth in Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Further, because the Company is not eligible for any compliance period since the Company has effected a reverse stock split over the prior one-year period, pursuant to Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iv), the Class A Shares will be scheduled for delisting from Nasdaq at the opening of business on February 7, 2025, unless the Company requests an appeal of such determination to a hearings panel (the "Panel").

The Company intends to timely request a hearing before the Panel. The request will stay the suspension of the Company's securities and the delisting process pending the Panel's decision. While the appeal is pending, the Class A Shares will continue to trade on Nasdaq under the symbols "RETO." There can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company an extension period or that the Company will ultimately regain compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing on Nasdaq.
