Nasdaq Grants Second 180-Day Window
On October 20, 2026 Nasdaq's listing qualifications staff extended the minimum bid price cure period to April 19, 2027, after the initial 180-day period expired October 19, 2026 without compliance.
-
Cure Hinges on Reverse Split
The extension was granted partly on the company's written notice that it intends to cure the deficiency by effecting a reverse stock split if necessary; a 1-for-12 split already took effect September 30, 2026 and the stock remains near $0.13.
-
Compliance Requires 10 Straight Days Above $1.00
The closing bid price must hold at least $1.00 for 10 consecutive business days at any point before April 19, 2027 for Nasdaq to confirm compliance and close the matter.
-
Delisting Risk If Deadline Missed
If compliance is not regained by April 19, 2027, Nasdaq will issue a delisting notification; an appeal to a Hearings Panel would not stay suspension of trading.
Analysis · SHFS · Finance
The company was on the clock to get its share price back above $1.00 by October 19, 2026 and missed it — the stock trades around $0.13. Nasdaq's grant of a second 180-day window to April 19, 2027 buys roughly six more months before a delisting determination, but it is a stay of execution, not a cure. The company told Nasdaq it intends to use a reverse stock split if needed, and it already executed a 1-for-12 split on September 30, 2026 that failed to hold the price above $1.00. Against a going-concern warning and thin cash disclosed in the Q2 10-Q, the listing overhang remains the binding constraint on the equity.
