, /PRNewswire/ -- Lichen China Limited (Nasdaq: LICN) ("Lichen China" or the "Company"), a dedicated financial and taxation service provider in China today announced that it has received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq"), notifying that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iii) (the "Low Priced Stocks Rule"), as the Company's securities had a closing bid price of $0.10 or less for eleven consecutive trading days from January 28, 2025 through February 11, 2025. The letter indicated that, as a result, the Nasdaq staff has determined to delist the Company's ordinary shares from The Nasdaq Capital Market (the "Delisting Determination"). As previously reported, on January 23, 2025, 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 Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until July 22, 2025, to regain compliance with this rule. The Delisting Determination ended the aforementioned compliance period before its expiration because the Company's stock prices have triggered the Low Priced Stocks Rule. The Company was provided until February 19, 2025 to request an appeal of the Delisting Determination to the hearing panel. The Company intends to request such hearing to appeal the Delisting Determination before that date, which will stay the suspension of its securities from the date of the request, during which time such securities will continue to be listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market. If the Company fails to request an appeal of the Delisting Determination by February 19, 2025, trading of the Company's ordinary shares will be suspended at the opening of business on February 21, 2025, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which will remove the Company's securities from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market. The Company is considering all potential options available to it to regain compliance with the aforementioned rules, including seeking shareholders' approval for a reverse stock split.
