Intellipharmaceutics Regains Compliance with Nasdaq Minimum
Shareholders' Equity Listing Requirements
Toronto, Ontario, October
26, 2018
Intellipharmaceutics International Inc. (NASDAQ and TSX:
IPCI)
(“Intellipharmaceutics” or the “Company”), a pharmaceutical company
specializing in the research, development and manufacture of novel
and generic controlled-release and targeted-release oral solid
dosage drugs, today announced that it has received a letter from
the Hearings Advisor from the Nasdaq Office of General Counsel
notifying the Company that it had regained compliance with
Nasdaq’s stockholders’ equity requirement. The letter
also informed the Company that the Company will remain subject
to a “Panel Monitor” under Nasdaq Listing Rule
5815(d)(4)(A) until October 22, 2019. The letter noted that
while the Company is not out of compliance with Nasdaq’s
minimum bid price rule because its common shares have not traded
below $1.00 for 30 consecutive trading days, the Company’s
shares have closed below $1.00 since October 11, 2018, and
indicated that if at any time during the monitor period the Company
fails any Nasdaq listing standard, the Nasdaq Staff will issue a
Staff Delisting Determination and the Hearings Department will
schedule a hearing.
As background, at a
hearing held on May 17, 2018, the Company presented its plan to
regain and maintain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements.
The Panel then granted the Company’s request for continued listing,
provided that by September 28, 2018, the Company (i) comply with
Nasdaq’s $1.00 bid price requirement by having a closing bid
price of over $1.00 for ten prior consecutive trading days, (ii)
have a stockholders’
equity position of over $2.5 million and (iii) provide the Panel
with updated financial projections demonstrating its ability to
maintain compliance with the stockholders’ equity rule for the coming year. On
September 12, 2018, the Company filed articles of amendment to
effectuate a 1-for-10 reverse split, and the Company’s common
shares began trading on each of Nasdaq and the Toronto Stock
Exchange on a post-reverse split basis on September 14, 2018. As a
result of the closing bid price of the Company’s common
shares exceeding $1.00 for the period from September 14 to 27,
2018, the Company regained compliance with the minimum bid price
requirement. On September 29, 2018, the Company was advised that
its request that the Panel grant a further extension through
October 17, 2018 had been granted.
There is no
assurance that the Company will be able to maintain compliance with
the Nasdaq continued listing standards, including Nasdaq’s
minimum stockholders’ equity, minimum bid-price or other
requirements during the Monitoring Period or
thereafter.
