Nasdaq bid-price noncompliance puts Inspire Veterinary Partners’ listing at risk.

Inspire Veterinary Partners disclosed that its common stock has failed to meet Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement under Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for 30 consecutive business days. Nasdaq indicated trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market would be suspended on November 24, 2025, with a Form 25-NSE to remove the securities from listing and registration.

The company requested a hearing with Nasdaq’s Hearings Panel by November 20, 2025, which stays any suspension or delisting while the process is pending. On November 21, 2025, it was advised that the hearing is scheduled for January 13, 2026. The company explicitly notes there is no assurance the Panel will grant continued listing or that it will regain compliance.

Loss of a Nasdaq listing can affect liquidity and accessibility for investors, as trading may move to less visible markets. The scheduled January 13, 2026 hearing is therefore a key procedural milestone, but outcomes will depend on the company’s ability to demonstrate a credible path back to compliance under Nasdaq’s rules.
