The functionality aims to help students study more efficiently by tailoring content to their specific classroom needs and learning challenges.

Chegg (NYSE:CHGG) has received a notice from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on April 1, 2025, indicating non-compliance with listing standards due to its average closing share price falling below $1.00 over a consecutive 30-day trading period ending March 31, 2025.

The company has a six-month cure period to regain compliance by achieving a closing share price of at least $1.00 and maintaining an average closing price of $1.00 over a 30-day trading period. During this time, Chegg's stock will continue trading on the NYSE, subject to other listing standards compliance.

To address this issue, Chegg plans to evaluate available options, including the possibility of implementing a reverse stock split, which would require board and stockholder approval. Failure to regain compliance could result in NYSE suspension and delisting procedures.
