Baijiayun Group Ltd Announces Receipt of Nasdaq Delisting Notification Regarding Minimum Bid Price Deficiency

Rhea-AI Summary

Baijiayun Group (Nasdaq: RTC) has received a delisting notification from Nasdaq on March 14, 2025, due to non-compliance with the minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share for the past 30 consecutive business days.

Unlike standard cases where companies receive a 180-day compliance period, RTC is not eligible for this grace period due to having executed a reverse stock split in the past year. The company has requested a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel, scheduled for April 24, 2025, to appeal the delisting determination.

During the appeal process, RTC's Class A ordinary shares will continue trading on the Nasdaq Global Market. While the company will evaluate options to regain compliance, there are no guarantees of success in maintaining Nasdaq listing standards or winning the appeal.

BEIJING, March 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Baijiayun Group Ltd ("Baijiayun" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: RTC), a one-stop AI video solution provider, today announced that it had received a written notification (the "Notice") from the Listing Qualifications (the "Staff") of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") on March 14, 2025, indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the "Minimum Bid Price Requirement"), as the Company's closing bid price for its Class A ordinary shares, par value US$0.0001 per share (the "Class A ordinary shares"), was below $1.00 per share for the prior thirty (30) consecutive business days. Pursuant to the Notice, normally, a company would be afforded a 180-calendar day period to demonstrate compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. However, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iv), the Company is not eligible for any compliance period specified in Nasdaq Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) due to the fact that the Company has effected a reverse stock split over the prior one-year period. As a result, the Staff determined to delist the Company's securities from the Nasdaq Global Market, unless the Company requests an appeal of the Staff's determination to a Hearings Panel (the "Panel") by March 21, 2025, pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5800 Series.

The Company has requested a hearing before the Panel to appeal the Notice and to address compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, which hearing date has been set as April 24, 2025. While the appeal process is pending, the suspension of trading of the Class A ordinary shares will be stayed and the Class A ordinary shares will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Global Market until the hearing process concludes and the Panel issues a written decision. The Company will evaluate available options to regain compliance with the aforementioned rule. However, there are no assurances that the Company will be able to regain or maintain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement or any other Nasdaq listing standards, that Nasdaq will grant the Company any extension of time to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, or that any such appeal to the Panel will be successful, as applicable.
