60 Degrees Pharmaceuticals, Inc. faces an immediate delisting from Nasdaq, a critical event for a micro-cap company. The delisting notice stems from the company's failure to maintain the minimum $1.00 bid price. Crucially, Nasdaq denied a compliance period due to a prior 1-for-5 reverse stock split in February 2025, making the delisting effective immediately. While the company has appealed the decision, there is no guarantee of a favorable outcome, creating significant uncertainty for investors. This event severely impacts the company's ability to access capital markets and maintain investor confidence, especially following a recent 1-for-4 reverse stock split on January 20, 2026, which was likely an attempt to regain compliance.
