Analysis

The stock moved -5.3% in the session following this news. A negative reaction despite the company noting unchanged operations would have fit the elevated regulatory risk from Nasdaq’s minimum bid price deficiency. With shares at $0.72, well below the US$1.00 threshold and the 200-day MA of $2.99, the market may have focused on the delisting risk if compliance were not regained within the 180-day window, and on the possibility of measures such as a reverse share split.

6 terms

american depositary shares financial

"Based on the closing bid price of the Company’s American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”)"

American depositary shares (ADSs) are a way for investors in the United States to buy shares of foreign companies without dealing with international markets directly. They represent ownership in a foreign company's stock and are traded on U.S. stock exchanges, making it easier for American investors to buy, sell, and own parts of companies from around the world.

nasdaq capital market regulatory

"The Notification Letter does not impact the Company’s listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market"

The Nasdaq Capital Market is a platform where smaller, emerging companies can list their shares for trading by investors. It provides these companies with access to funding and visibility, helping them grow, much like a local marketplace where new vendors can introduce their products to potential customers. For investors, it offers opportunities to discover early-stage companies with growth potential.

reverse share split financial

"including, but not limited to, implementing a reverse share split of its outstanding ADSs"

A reverse share split is when a company reduces the number of its shares outstanding by combining multiple shares into one, effectively increasing the price of each share. For investors, this can help improve the company's image or meet stock exchange listing requirements, but it does not change the total value of their investment. It’s similar to turning many small pieces of a puzzle into fewer larger pieces—nothing new is added or lost, just rearranged.

minimum bid price requirement regulatory

"it is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rules"

A minimum bid price requirement is a rule that a stock must trade above a set price for a specified period to stay listed on an exchange. It matters to investors because falling below that threshold can trigger warnings or removal from the exchange, which can cut liquidity, reduce visibility, and often lead to sharper declines in share value—think of it like a venue’s minimum dress code that, if not met, can bar a performer from the stage.

delisting regulatory

"may be eligible for additional time to regain compliance or may face delisting"

Delisting occurs when a company's stock is removed from a stock exchange and is no longer available for trading there. This can happen voluntarily or because the company no longer meets the exchange's requirements. For investors, delisting means they can no longer buy or sell shares of that company on the exchange, which may make it more difficult to sell their investments or affect the stock's value.

closing bid price financial

"the Company’s ADSs must have a closing bid price of at least US$1.00"

The closing bid price is the last price that a buyer was willing to pay for a security at the end of the trading day. It reflects the final visible demand for the stock — like the last offer someone makes for a used car before a yard closes — and helps investors gauge market interest, set valuations, and mark portfolios to market for that day.

Guangdong, China, Dec. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wing Yip Food Holdings Group Limited (the “Company” or “Wing Yip”) (Nasdaq: WYHG), a meat product processing company in mainland China, today announced that the Company received a written notification (the “Notification Letter”) from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) on December 22, 2025, notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rules for continued listing on the Nasdaq.

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of US$1.00 per share, and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet the minimum bid price requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days. Based on the closing bid price of the Company’s American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) for the 30 consecutive business days from November 7, 2025 to December 19, 2025, the Company no longer meets the minimum bid price requirement.

The Notification Letter does not impact the Company’s listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market at this time. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been provided 180 calendar days, or until June 22, 2026, to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). To regain compliance, the Company’s ADSs must have a closing bid price of at least US$1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. In the event the Company does not regain compliance by June 22, 2026, the Company may be eligible for additional time to regain compliance or may face delisting.

The Company’s business operations are not affected by the receipt of the Notification Letter. The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its ADSs and may, if appropriate, consider implementing available options, including, but not limited to, implementing a reverse share split of its outstanding ADSs, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under the Nasdaq Listing Rules.
