Assertio Holdings, Inc. Regains Compliance With Nasdaq Listing Requirements

Key Terms

minimum bid price rule regulatory

A minimum bid price rule is a stock market requirement that a listed company's share must trade above a set minimum price over a specified period to remain listed on an exchange. It matters to investors because falling below that threshold can trigger warnings, potential delisting, and reduced liquidity—similar to a student needing a passing grade to stay enrolled—making the shares harder to buy, sell, or value accurately.

common stock financial

Common stock represents ownership shares in a company, giving investors a stake in its success and a say in important decisions through voting rights. It is the most common type of stock traded on markets and can provide income through dividends, as well as potential for value growth. For investors, holding common stock means sharing in the company’s profits and risks.

reverse stock-split financial

A reverse stock split reduces the number of a company's outstanding shares by combining multiple existing shares into one new share (for example, five old shares become one new share), which raises the per-share price without changing the overall value of an investor’s holdings. Investors care because it can make a stock look healthier or meet exchange listing rules, but it does not by itself improve the company’s business or the total value of their investment—think of repackaging many small coins into fewer larger coins.
