Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Celularity Inc. reported that Nasdaq notified the company on June 9, 2026 that its Market Value of Listed Securities has been below the required $35 million minimum for 30 consecutive business days, triggering a continued listing deficiency under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2).

The company has 180 calendar days, until December 7, 2026, to regain compliance by maintaining a market value of listed securities of at least $35.0 million for 10 consecutive business days. Celularity is evaluating potential actions and may also consider raising stockholders’ equity to at least $2.5 million to meet an alternative Nasdaq standard, but there is no assurance it will maintain its Nasdaq Capital Market listing.

Insights

Nasdaq has flagged Celularity for low market value, creating delisting risk if compliance is not restored.

Celularity received a Nasdaq notice that its Market Value of Listed Securities has stayed below the $35 million threshold for 30 consecutive business days. This puts the company out of compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2), although trading continues for now on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

The company has 180 calendar days, until December 7, 2026, to lift its market value and keep it at or above $35.0 million for at least 10 consecutive business days. Management is evaluating options, including potentially boosting stockholders’ equity to at least $2.5 million, which could satisfy an alternative continued listing standard.

If Celularity does not regain compliance by the deadline, Nasdaq may move to delist its securities, though the company would be able to appeal. Actual impact will depend on whether the company can execute actions that restore compliance within the grace period.

Market Value of Listed Securities financial
"the Company’s minimum Market Value of Listed Securities was below the minimum of $35 million"
The market value of listed securities is the total worth of stocks, bonds and other tradable instruments quoted on an exchange, measured using the prices investors are willing to pay right now. It’s calculated by multiplying each security’s current market price by the number of units outstanding and adding those amounts together, like totaling the value of every item in a store at today’s prices. Investors watch this because it shows the size, liquidity and overall health of the market or a company’s publicly traded portion, and it influences index weights, fund allocations and perceived risk.
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) regulatory
"required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2)"
Nasdaq Capital Market regulatory
"required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2)"
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.
continued listing standard regulatory
"other options to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing standard such as by increasing its stockholders’ equity"
Continued listing standards are the ongoing rules a stock exchange or trading venue requires a company to meet to keep its shares listed, such as minimum share price, market value, shareholder equity, and timely financial reporting. For investors, these standards matter because failure to meet them can trigger warnings or removal from the exchange, which can reduce a stock’s visibility, trading liquidity, and value—similar to how failing building inspections can limit a business’s ability to operate publicly.
emerging growth company regulatory
"Emerging growth company Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule"
An emerging growth company is a recently public or smaller public firm that qualifies for temporary, lighter regulatory and disclosure rules to reduce the cost and effort of being public. For investors, it means the company may provide less historical financial detail and face fewer reporting requirements than larger firms, so it can grow more quickly but also carries higher uncertainty—like buying a promising early-stage product with fewer user reviews.

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

 

On June 9, 2026, Celularity Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that for the last 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the Notice, the Company’s minimum Market Value of Listed Securities was below the minimum of $35 million required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) (the “MVLS Requirement”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), Nasdaq has provided the Company with 180 calendar days, or until December 7, 2026 (the “Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement. If the Company regains compliance with the MVLS Requirement, Nasdaq will provide written confirmation to the Company and close the matter.

 

The Notice does not result in the delisting of the Company’s common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market. To regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement, the market value of the Company’s common stock must meet or exceed $35.0 million for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days during the 180-day grace period ending on the Compliance Date, unless the Staff exercises its discretion to extend this ten consecutive business day period pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(H). The Company is evaluating potential actions to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement and intends to actively monitor the market value of its listed securities. The Company may also, if appropriate, consider other options to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing standard such as by increasing its stockholders’ equity to at least $2.5 million.

 

In the event the Company does not regain compliance prior to the Compliance Date, the Company will receive written notification that its securities are subject to delisting, at which point the Company may appeal the delisting determination.

 

There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in maintaining its listing of its common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
