Allarity Granted Hearing Before Nasdaq Panel to Present Plan of Regaining Compliance
Boston (June 27, 2024) — Allarity Therapeutics, Inc. (“Allarity” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ALLR), a Phase 2 clinical-stage pharmaceutical company dedicated to developing personalized cancer treatments, today announced that it received notice from the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) that it was granted a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”).
This upcoming hearing, occurring in approximately 5 weeks, is scheduled for the Company to present its plan for regaining compliance following Nasdaq’s notification, disclosed in Allarity’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 21, 2024, of Allarity’s non-compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), also known as the Bid-Price Rule. This rule requires that a company’s stock maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share for at least 30 consecutive business days.
As previously disclosed in Allarity’s preliminary proxy statement filed with the SEC on June 21, 2024, Allarity intended to appeal the determination, and the Company’s request for hearing was formally submitted on June 25, 2024.
Allarity now intends to proceed through the hearings appeal process with Nasdaq.
The Company has already started preparing diligently for the hearing, with a preparation schedule in place to ensure thorough readiness.
The Company plans to issue an update on the Nasdaq hearings process as soon as substantive updates are available.
