Public listing and SPAC business combination

Nasdaq listing and minimum bid price notice
Able View has disclosed that it received a notification letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department stating that it was not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The notification related to the closing bid price of the company’s ordinary shares being below USD $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive trading days within a specified period.

According to the company, these partnerships are intended to support the development of its business on the TikTok platform, strengthen its market position, and provide brand partners with marketing solutions and service support that incorporate live-streaming and social commerce.
