Cambodia, Dec. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kandal M Venture Limited (NASDAQ:FMFC) ("Kandal" or the "Company"), a contract manufacturer of affordable luxury leather goods with manufacturing operations in Cambodia, today announced it has received a letter of noncompliance from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq"), dated December 22, 2025, notifying the Company that based on Kandal's closing bid price for the last 30 consecutive business days, the Company no longer meets the continued listing requirement of Nasdaq, under Nasdaq Listing Rules 5550(a)(2), to maintain a minimum bid price of $1 per share.
However, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a compliance period of 180 calendar days in which to regain compliance. If at any time during this 180-day period the closing bid price of the Company's security is at least $1 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide Kandal with written confirmation of compliance and this matter will be closed.
In the event the Company does not regain compliance, Kandal may be eligible for additional time.
To qualify, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.
If the Kandal meets these requirements, Nasdaq will inform the Company that it has been granted an additional 180 calendar days. However, if it appears to Nasdaq that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq will provide notice that its securities will be subject to delisting.
The Nasdaq notification letter does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company's class A ordinary shares, and the said shares will continue to trade uninterrupted under the symbol "FMFC."
Kandal is currently evaluating options to regain compliance and intends to timely regain compliance with Nasdaq's continued listing requirement. Although Kandal will use all reasonable efforts to achieve compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2), there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with that rule or will otherwise be in compliance with other Nasdaq continued listing requirement.
