Newegg Commerce Inc (NEGG) shares are soaring, up by a remarkable 42% to $0.79 in afternoon trading on Monday. This surge follows the company’s reception of a notice from Nasdaq indicating non-compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, as the common shares closed below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days.
The company has a 180-day compliance period, extending until May 6, 2024, to rectify the situation. Given that the closing bid price reaches or exceeds $1.00 for ten consecutive business days within this period, Nasdaq will affirm compliance.
If compliance is not achieved by May 6, there is a provision for an additional 180-day grace period.
