The Company Intends to Cure Deficiency and Return to Compliance with NYSE Listing Standard
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Gelesis Holdings Inc. (NYSE: GLS) (“Gelesis” or the “Company”) today noted that the Company received a notification letter from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) advising that because the average closing price of the Company’s common stock was less than $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period, it is not in compliance with Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. The Company’s common stock will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE, subject to the Company’s compliance with other NYSE continued listing standards.
The Company can regain compliance at any time within the six-month period following receipt of the NYSE notice if on the last trading day of any calendar month during such six-month cure period the Company has a closing share price of at least $1.00 and an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of that month. The Company intends to consider all available alternatives in order to regain compliance within the six-month cure period and will pursue those alternatives that are in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.
The Company will provide a timely response to the NYSE’s letter to confirm its intent to return to compliance.

In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts, or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements.

Gelesis is a consumer-centered biotherapeutics company advancing a novel category of treatments for weight management and gut related chronic diseases. Its non-systemic superabsorbent hydrogels are the first and only made entirely from naturally derived building blocks, and they are inspired by the composition (i.e., water & cellulose) and mechanical properties (e.g., elasticity or firmness) of raw vegetables. They are conveniently administered in capsules to create a much larger volume of small, non-aggregating hydrogel pieces that become an integrated part of the meals, and act locally in the digestive system. Its portfolio includes Plenity®, an FDA-cleared product to aid in weight management, as well as potential therapies in development for patients with Type 2 Diabetes, Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)/Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH), and Functional Constipation.
