Mint Announces Receipt of Nasdaq Notification Regarding Minimum Bid Price Deficiency
Rhea-AI Summary
Mint (Nasdaq: MIMI) received a Nasdaq notification dated December 19, 2025, for failure to meet the minimum $1.00 bid price requirement after the closing price remained below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days from November 6, 2025 to December 18, 2025.
The notice has no immediate effect on trading and the Company continues to trade under MIMI. Mint has a 180-calendar-day compliance period until June 17, 2026 to regain compliance by achieving a $1.00+ closing bid for 10 consecutive business days.
If not cured, Mint may request an additional 180-day period by meeting Nasdaq market-value listing standards (except bid price) and notifying Nasdaq, which could include completing a reverse stock split no later than 10 business days before June 17, 2026.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oct 02 | Shareholder lock-ups | Positive | -2.8% | Key shareholders voluntarily locked up significant Class A and Class B stakes. |

Recent positive corporate updates, including lock-ups and new contracts, were followed by negative price reactions, showing a pattern of divergence between news tone and short-term trading.
Over recent months, Mint reported shareholder lock-ups covering 4,811,800 Class A and 7,000,000 Class B shares and secured a maintenance contract with Pop Mart’s Hong Kong operations. Additional 6-K filings detailed subsidiary formations and corporate restructuring focused on software, smart facility management, and robotics. Despite generally constructive corporate developments, the stock saw negative reactions to prior news. Today’s Nasdaq minimum bid price deficiency notice follows this backdrop of strategic expansion alongside sustained share price pressure well below the $1.00 threshold.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement highlights that Mint fell out of compliance with Nasdaq’s $1.00 minimum bid price after 30 consecutive business days below that level, triggering a formal notice and a 180-day window to cure the deficiency. The company indicated operations are unaffected and outlined options such as a potential reverse stock split. Investors may track whether the closing bid meets the 10-consecutive-day requirement, along with any further Nasdaq correspondence or corporate actions related to maintaining the listing.
