- None.
- The company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) due to not timely filing the Form 10-Q with the SEC, which may lead to potential negative repercussions in the future.
The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq.
The Notice indicated that the Company must submit a plan to regain compliance with the Listing Rule within 60 calendar days and, following receipt of such plan, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the Form 10-Q due date, or until May 20, 2024, for the Company to regain compliance.

The Restatement is more fully described in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 24, 2023.
While the Company can provide no assurances as to timing, the Company is working diligently to complete the Restatement and plans to file the Form 10-Q as soon as practicable to regain compliance with the Listing Rule.
