1. Global Engine Group is at risk of Nasdaq delisting. 2. Company must maintain a $1 bid price by April 2026. 3. Options to regain compliance may include a reverse stock split. 4. Current trading of shares continues unaffected by the notice. 5. The company is assessing its market position and compliance strategies.
The notification of non-compliance typically signals market uncertainty about the company's future, leading to potential sell-offs. Similar scenarios in history show stocks often decline when faced with delisting risks.
The Nasdaq notice directly affects GLE's market perception and compliance status, making it pivotal for investors. The company's response will likely dictate future performance.
The 180-day compliance period poses a long-term pressure on stock price due to uncertainty. Historical data indicates companies often experience sustained declines during extended compliance assessments.
Hong Kong, Oct. 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global Engine Group Holding Limited (the "Company"), a Hong Kong-headquartered integrated solutions provider in information communication technologies ("ICT"), today announced that it has received a notice (the "Notice") from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq"), dated October 27, 2025, stating that the Company is not in compliance with the requirement to maintain a minimum bid price of $1 per share as set forth under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "Minimum Bid Price Rule") for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet the minimum bid price requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days. Based upon the closing bid price of the Company's Class A ordinary shares (the "Shares") for the last 30 consecutive business days, the Company no longer satisfies this requirement.
The Notice indicated that the Company has 180 calendar days, or until April 27, 2026 (the "Compliance Period"), to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule. To regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule, the closing bid price of the Company's Shares must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days at any time prior to the expiration of the Compliance Period.
The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company's Shares, which will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "GLE."
The Company is monitoring the closing bid price of the Shares and evaluating options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule, including by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain or maintain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule.
