Insights

Jaguar lifts its public float above Nasdaq’s minimum but awaits confirmation.

Jaguar Health describes how a 1-for-35 reverse stock split temporarily reduced publicly held shares to about 401,226, below Nasdaq’s 500,000-share requirement. This triggered a notice that the company was non-compliant with the Publicly Held Shares Requirement and the minimum $1.00 bid price standard.

Following the exercise of existing pre-funded warrants by third-party investors, Jaguar now reports 513,974 common shares issued and outstanding and 513,939 publicly held shares, above the threshold. The filing notes the company is awaiting Nasdaq staff’s formal confirmation of compliance, and future trading must still evidence a closing bid of at least $1.00 per share for 10 consecutive business days as required.

reverse stock split financial
"as a result of the 1-for-35 reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares"
A reverse stock split reduces a company's number of outstanding shares while raising the price per share proportionally, so the total value of each investor's holding is unchanged; a 1-for-10 split turns 100 shares worth $1 each into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to regain compliance with an exchange's minimum price rule or to attract investors who avoid very low-priced stocks.
Publicly Held Shares Requirement regulatory
"did not comply with the minimum 500,000 Publicly Held Shares requirement for continued inclusion"
pre-funded warrants financial
"Following the exercise by certain third-party investors of existing pre-funded warrants to purchase Common Stock"
Pre-funded warrants are financial instruments that give investors the right to purchase a company's stock at a set price, but with most or all of the purchase price paid upfront. They function like a coupon or gift card for stock, allowing investors to buy shares later at a fixed price, which can be beneficial if they want to avoid future price increases. This makes them important for investors seeking flexibility and certainty in their investment plans.

FAQ

What Nasdaq issue does Jaguar Health (JAGX) describe in this 8-K?

Jaguar Health explains that a 1-for-35 reverse stock split left it with about 401,226 publicly held shares, below Nasdaq’s 500,000 minimum. This triggered non-compliance with the Publicly Held Shares Requirement and affected its status under the minimum $1.00 bid price rule.

How did the reverse stock split affect Jaguar Health’s publicly held shares?

The April 30, 2026 1-for-35 reverse stock split reduced Jaguar Health’s publicly held common shares to approximately 401,226. That figure fell short of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(4), which requires at least 500,000 publicly held shares for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.

What is Jaguar Health’s current share count after warrant exercises?

After certain third-party investors exercised existing pre-funded warrants on May 4, 2026, Jaguar Health reports 513,974 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Of these, 513,939 are publicly held shares, which is above Nasdaq’s 500,000 publicly held shares requirement for continued inclusion.

Has Jaguar Health regained compliance with Nasdaq’s Publicly Held Shares Requirement?

Jaguar Health states that after warrant exercises, it has 513,939 publicly held shares, exceeding Nasdaq’s 500,000-share threshold. The company adds that it is awaiting formal written confirmation from Nasdaq staff that this updated share count satisfies the Publicly Held Shares Requirement for continued listing.

What additional Nasdaq condition must Jaguar Health meet on its stock price?

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), Jaguar Health must show a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. This price condition applies after curing the publicly held shares issue and can be extended to 20 days at Nasdaq’s discretion.

What role did pre-funded warrants play in Jaguar Health’s Nasdaq compliance?

Pre-funded warrants allowed certain third-party investors to acquire additional Jaguar Health common shares on May 4, 2026. Their exercise increased total issued and outstanding shares to 513,974 and publicly held shares to 513,939, helping the company exceed Nasdaq’s 500,000 publicly held shares minimum requirement.

Item 8.01.

Other Events.

As previously disclosed, on May 1, 2026, Jaguar Health, Inc. (the “Company”) received a written notification (the “Notice”) from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, as a result of the 1-for-35 reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), effected on April 30, 2026, the Company had a post reverse stock split number of publicly held shares of Common Stock of approximately 401,226. As a result, the Company did not comply with the minimum 500,000 Publicly Held Shares requirement for continued inclusion set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(4) (the “Publicly Held Shares Requirement”). In addition, Staff noted that under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company would remain non-compliant with both the minimum $1.00 bid price requirement and the Publicly Held Shares Requirement until the failure to meet the Publicly Held Shares Requirement is cured and, thereafter, the Company evidences a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, unless Staff exercises its discretion to extend the 10-day period, up to 20 days, as discussed in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(H).

Following the exercise by certain third-party investors of existing pre-funded warrants to purchase Common Stock on May 4, 2026, the Company has 513,974 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and 513,939 publicly held shares. The Company is awaiting the Staff’s formal confirmation that the Company has evidenced compliance with the Publicly Held Shares Requirement.
