Nasdaq warns Advantage Solutions (NASDAQ: ADV) on $1 bid price

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Advantage Solutions Inc. reported that on January 7, 2026 it received a notice from Nasdaq that its common stock no longer meets the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for the Nasdaq Global Select Market.

The company has 180 calendar days, until July 6, 2026, to regain compliance by having its closing bid price at or above $1.00 per share for at least ten consecutive business days. The notice does not immediately affect the current Nasdaq Global Select Market listing.

If compliance is not regained by July 6, 2026, the company may seek a transfer to the Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to meeting other listing standards, paying an application fee, and detailing its plan to cure the deficiency. Failure to regain compliance within available periods could lead to delisting, although the company would have the right to appeal. Advantage Solutions intends to monitor its stock price and consider options to restore compliance.

Negative

• Nasdaq minimum bid deficiency and delisting risk: Advantage Solutions’ stock has fallen below the $1.00 minimum bid price, triggering a Nasdaq non-compliance notice and setting a July 6, 2026 deadline to avoid potential delisting.

Insights

Equity markets and listing standards analyst

Nasdaq minimum bid deficiency introduces delisting risk if ADV cannot lift its share price.

Nasdaq has notified Advantage Solutions that its stock no longer satisfies the $1.00 minimum bid requirement for the Nasdaq Global Select Market. The company has 180 days through July 6, 2026 to achieve a closing bid at or above $1.00 for at least ten consecutive business days to regain compliance. The listing remains unchanged for now, so there is no immediate trading venue disruption.

If the company fails to regain compliance by July 6, 2026, it could apply to transfer to the Nasdaq Capital Market, provided it meets other initial listing standards and pays an application fee. Otherwise, the stock may face delisting, with only an appeals process remaining. The company states it will monitor its closing bid price and consider options to address the deficiency, so subsequent disclosures around any chosen remedy will be important for understanding listing outcomes.

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On January 7, 2026, Advantage Solutions Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Select Market, as set forth in Listing Rule 5450(a)(1). In accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a period of 180 calendar days, or until July 6, 2026, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during this 180-day period. The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market.

If the Company is not in compliance by July 6, 2026, the Company may be eligible for additional time to regain compliance. To qualify, the Company would be required to submit an application to transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market, which would require the Company to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, except for the minimum bid price requirement. In addition, the Company would be required to pay an application fee to Nasdaq and notify Nasdaq of its intent to cure the minimum bid price deficiency.

If the Company does not regain compliance within the allotted compliance periods, including any extensions that may be granted by Nasdaq, Nasdaq will provide notice that the Company’s common stock will be subject to delisting. The Company would then be entitled to appeal Nasdaq’s determination, but there can be no assurance that Nasdaq would grant the Company’s request for continued listing.

The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and consider options to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.
