Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “predicts,” “projects,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. These statements relate to future events or to our future financial performance, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, including, our ability to spin off our subsidiary focused on financial reporting software and take it public through an IPO, and when such event could occur, if at all. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements since they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which are, in some cases, beyond our control and which could, and likely will, materially affect actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and those discussed in other documents we file with the SEC, including, our ability to stay listed on Nasdaq, and our ability to continue as a going concern. Any forward-looking statement reflects our current views with respect to future events and is subject to these and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to our operations, results of operations, growth strategy and liquidity. We assume no obligation to publicly update or revise these forward-looking statements for any reason, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future, unless required by law. The safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 protects companies from liability for their forward-looking statements if they comply with the requirements of such Act.

Focus Universal Inc. Regains Compliance

with Nasdaq Listing Requirement

 

Ontario, California, February 20, 2025 -- Focus Universal Inc. (NASDAQ: FCUV) (“Focus” or the “Company”), a provider of patented hardware and software design technologies for Internet of Things (IoT), 5G and SEC Financial Reporting AI-Driven Automation Software developer, today announced that it received formal written confirmation from The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”), confirming that Nasdaq has determined that for the last 13 consecutive business days, from January 31, 2025 to February 19, 2025, the closing bid price of the Company’s shares has been at $1.00 per share or greater. Accordingly, the Company has regained compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The Company has regained compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement, noting that this matter is now closed.

 

“Regaining compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price is an important requirement for Focus Universal,” said Dr. Desheng Wang, CEO of Focus Universal Inc. ”, and as we reflect on the market and growing business potential, we remain focused on creating long-term shareholder value through our fundamental research and development, which aims to address the core challenges in IoT and labor-intensive data entry. Our universal smart instrumentation platform provides a common hardware foundation that allows IoT engineers to start with 90% of the work completed, rather than from scratch. Our universal smart instrumentation software platform can replace any IoT app globally, eliminating the need for app developers to create individual apps.”

 

Dr. Desheng Wang continued, “Furthermore, with our AI-driven SEC financial reporting software, with a single click, automatically retrieves financial data from accounting systems and generates consolidated financial statements and SEC reports in WORD, PDF, HTML, and XBRL formats -- all without human involvement and free of errors -- reducing up to 2,000 person-days of work for public companies to 20 minutes. We showcased these technologies at CES 2025 in Las Vegas. We are committed to our shareholders to spin off the subsidiary focused on the SEC financial reporting software and take it public through an IPO.”
