Rhea-AI Filing Summary

HeartBeam, Inc. has received a Nasdaq notice that its common stock is out of compliance with the exchange’s $1.00 minimum bid price requirement, after trading below this level for 30 consecutive business days.

The company has 180 calendar days, until December 28, 2026, to regain compliance by maintaining a closing bid of at least $1.00 for 10 consecutive business days. A second 180-day period may be available if other Nasdaq listing standards, including market value of publicly held shares, are met.

The notice does not immediately affect HeartBeam’s Nasdaq Capital Market listing, but failure to regain compliance could ultimately lead to delisting, subject to possible appeal to a Nasdaq hearings panel.

Insights

HeartBeam faces a Nasdaq bid-price deficiency with a defined cure window.

HeartBeam has fallen below Nasdaq’s $1.00 minimum bid price for 30 consecutive business days, triggering a formal deficiency notice. This is a common early-stage compliance issue for smaller issuers, but it signals sustained share-price weakness.

The company now has 180 days, until December 28, 2026, to restore a closing bid at or above $1.00 for 10 straight business days. A second 180-day period is possible if all other initial Nasdaq Capital Market standards, including market value of publicly held shares, are satisfied.

If compliance is not regained, Nasdaq may move to delist the stock, with an appeal path to a hearings panel. The practical impact will depend on management’s chosen remedies and whether the share price recovers within the allowed timeframe.

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing Securities
The company received a delisting notice or transferred its listing to a different exchange.
Minimum bid price threshold $1.00 per share Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) requirement
Noncompliance period 30 consecutive business days Closing bid below $1.00 before notice
Initial compliance window 180 calendar days From notice date to December 28, 2026
Compliance trading requirement 10 consecutive business days Bid must be at or above $1.00
Compliance deadline December 28, 2026 End of initial 180-day period
Minimum Bid Price Requirement regulatory
"not currently in compliance with the requirement to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share"
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.
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) regulatory
"as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”)"
Nasdaq Capital Market regulatory
"for continued 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.
Listing Qualifications Department regulatory
"received a deficiency letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC"
A listing qualifications department is the part of a stock exchange that checks whether a company meets the exchange’s rules for being listed and staying listed. Think of it as a gatekeeper or building inspector: it reviews financial statements, disclosure practices and corporate governance, flags problems and can require fixes or remove a company’s shares. Investors care because its decisions affect whether a stock remains tradable and how much trust to place in a company’s reporting.
market value of publicly held shares financial
"required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares"
The market value of publicly held shares is the total dollar worth of a company’s shares that are available to outside investors, calculated by multiplying the current market price by the number of shares held by the public (the “float”). It matters because it tells investors how much of the company is actually tradable and how the market is pricing that tradable portion—like a price tag on the items on a store shelf, it affects liquidity, volatility and how easy it is to buy or sell a meaningful stake.

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

 

On June 30, 2026, HeartBeam, Inc. (the “Company”) received a deficiency letter (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, based upon the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), for the last 30 consecutive business days, the Company is not currently in compliance with the requirement to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”).

 

The Notice has no immediate effect on the continued listing status of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market, and, therefore, the Company’s listing remains fully effective.

 

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company is provided a compliance period of 180 calendar days from the date of the Notice, or until December 28, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Common Stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days prior to December 28, 2026.

 

If the Company is not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by December 28, 2026, the Company may be afforded a second 180 calendar day compliance period. To qualify for this additional compliance period, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price requirement.

 

The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of the Common Stock and will evaluate available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the 180-day compliance period, secure a second period of 180 days to regain compliance, or maintain compliance with the other Nasdaq listing requirements. If the Company does not regain compliance within the allotted compliance period, including any extensions that Nasdaq grants, Nasdaq will provide notice that the Common Stock will be subject to delisting. The Company would then be entitled to appeal that determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel.

Can HeartBeam (BEAT) get more time beyond December 28, 2026 to fix the bid price issue?
