Insights

Yunhong Green CTI Ltd.'s non-compliance notification from Nasdaq is a significant event for investors to pay attention to. The inability to file the 10-Q due to the prior auditor's suspension puts the company at risk of delisting, which could severely impact the stock price. Investors should note that the company is required to present a plan to regain compliance by July 22, 2024 and if accepted, they may have until November 18, 2024 to rectify the situation. Failing to do so could lead to delisting from Nasdaq, making the stock harder to trade and potentially reducing its value significantly.

From a financial perspective, the delay in filing the 10-Q creates uncertainty regarding the company's current financial health. This is particularly concerning for retail investors who rely on timely filings to assess the company's performance. Investors should be cautious until more clarity is provided, as the current situation introduces both short-term volatility and potential long-term risks.

The suspension of the company's prior auditor and the ensuing requirement for additional audit procedures significantly impacts Yunhong Green CTI Ltd.'s compliance and regulatory standing. The fact that the company can no longer use audit reports from BF Borgers CPA PC underscores the complexity and potential legal ramifications of this scenario. Investors should understand that any delay in filing required documents like the 10-Q increases the risk of regulatory penalties and legal challenges.

Moreover, the need to present a compliance plan by July 22, 2024 and the possibility of an exception being granted until November 18, 2024 means that the company is under legal scrutiny. This duration adds to the uncertainty and may influence investor sentiment negatively. It's important for retail investors to stay updated on the company's progress in meeting these deadlines, as failure to comply could result in delisting and further legal complications.

Prior Auditor Suspended from Practicing, Requiring Additional Work to be Performed Prior to issuing 2024 Filings

LAKE BARRINGTON, IL / ACCESSWIRE / May 28, 2024 / Yunhong Green CTI Ltd. (Nasdaq: YHGJ) ("Yunhong Green CTI" or the "Company"), a leading manufacturer of custom film products, foil and latex novelty balloons, and flexible packaging products, today announced its receipt of a May 22, 2024 notice from The Nasdaq Capital Market indicating the Company's non-compliance with Listing Standard 5250(c)(1), as the Company has not filed its 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024 as required.

Because of this, the Company may no longer use audit reports or consent from BFB in future filings. Without the 2023 audit report, the Company's new auditors will need to perform procedures related to 2023 balances in order to be able to perform an effective review of required 2024 filings, including the Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024. The Company is working with its new audit firm to perform this work. Until this is completed, the Company will not be able to issue filings during 2024.

The Company must present its plan to regain compliance to Nasdaq no later than July 22, 2024, at which time the Nasdaq may grant an exception to later than November 18, 2024.
