On March 14, 2024, MediaCo Holding Inc. (the “Company”) received a notification letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it had been granted an additional 180 days, or until September 9, 2024, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2), requiring a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”), based on the Company meeting the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market with the exception of the bid price requirement, and the Company’s written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period.

 

As previously disclosed by the Company in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 15, 2023, the Company received a notification letter from the Staff notifying the Company that, because the closing bid price for the Company’s Class A common stock (the “Common Stock”) listed on Nasdaq was below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days, the Company no longer met the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.

 

If at any time before September 9, 2024, the bid price of the Common Stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, the Staff will provide written confirmation that the Company has achieved compliance.  If the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by the end of the second compliance period, the Common Stock will become subject to delisting. In the event that the Company receives notice that the Common Stock is being delisted, the Nasdaq listing rules permit the Company to appeal a delisting determination by the Staff to a hearings panel.

 

The Nasdaq deficiency letter has no immediate effect on the listing of the Common Stock, and the Common Stock will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “MDIA” at this time.

 

The Company intends to continue to monitor the closing bid price of the Common Stock between now and September 9, 2024, and will consider available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, including initiating a reverse stock split. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement or will otherwise be in compliance with other Nasdaq Listing Rules.

 

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
