Blue Hat Regains Compliance with Nasdaq Minimum Bid Price Requirement
XIAMEN, China, April 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Blue Hat Interactive Entertainment Technology (“Blue Hat” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BHAT), a Cayman Islands company, today announced that on April 2, 2025, it received a letter (the “Letter”) from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it has regained compliance with the Nasdaq Capital Market’s minimum bid price requirement and the matter is closed.
As previously reported, on September 6, 2024, Nasdaq notified the Company that the bid price of its listed securities had closed at less than $1.00 per share over the previous 30 consecutive business days and, as a result, did not comply with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). The Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until March 5, 2025, to regain compliance with this rule. On January 24, 2025, the Company received a delisting determination (the “Delisting Determination”), as the Company’s securities had a closing bid price of $0.10 or less for ten consecutive trading days. Delisting Determination ended the aforementioned compliance period before its expiration. The Company timely requested an appeal of the Delisting Determination to the hearing panel and was granted until March 31, 2025 to cure such Minimum Price Deficiency.
The Letter noted that as of March 28, 2025, Blue Hat evidenced a closing bid price of its ordinary shares at or greater than $1.00 per share minimum requirement for the past 10 consecutive trading days. Accordingly, Blue Hat has regained compliance with Nasdaq Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
The Company will be subject to a mandatory panel monitor for a period of one year from the date of the Letter, or until April 2, 2026 to monitor the Company’s continued compliance with Minimum Bid Price Requirement, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5815(d)(4)(B). Should the Company fail to meet the Minimum Bid Price Requirement for a period of 30 consecutive trading days, the Company will not be permitted to provide the Staff with a plan of compliance with respect to that deficiency and Staff will not be permitted to grant additional time for the Company to regain compliance with respect to that deficiency, nor will the Company be afforded an applicable cure or compliance period. The Staff will issue a delist determination letter and the Company will have an opportunity for a new hearing with the initial panel or a newly convened hearings panel if the initial panel is unavailable.
