The letter stated that, based on the closing bid price of the company's common stock over the 30 consecutive business day period ended October 27, 2026, the company no longer satisfies the $1.00 per share minimum bid price required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1).

If the company does not regain compliance within the compliance period, including any extensions Nasdaq may grant, the Nasdaq staff would provide written notice that the common stock would be subject to delisting. The company noted that it could appeal any such delisting determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel, but stated "there can be no assurance that... such appeal would be successful."

The company disclosed that it "intends to actively monitor the closing bid price" and may consider available options, including a reverse stock split if necessary, to resolve the deficiency.
