Positive

Insights

Equity listing & capital markets analyst

Nasdaq minimum-bid noncompliance introduces delisting risk if not cured.

Tivic Health Systems has fallen below Nasdaq’s $1.00 minimum bid price for 30 consecutive business days, triggering a formal noncompliance notice. The shares remain on the Nasdaq Capital Market, but the company now operates under a defined cure timetable.

Under Nasdaq rules, Tivic has 180 days from March 19, 2026 to restore a closing bid at or above $1.00 for at least 10 straight trading days. If it satisfies all other initial listing standards, it may receive a second 180‑day period.

If compliance is not regained within the allowed periods, Nasdaq can move to delist the stock, though Tivic would have the right to appeal to a hearings panel. Actual outcomes will depend on future share-price performance and any actions the company undertakes within these stated windows.

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

On March 19, 2026, Tivic Health Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notification letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, because the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock was below $1.00 per share for at least 30 consecutive business days, the Company is not currently in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”).

The notification has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s 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 has a period of 180 calendar days from March 19, 2026 or until September 15, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If at any time before September 15, 2026, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and the matter would be resolved. If the Company does not regain compliance during the compliance period ending on September 15, 2026, then Nasdaq may grant the Company a second 180 calendar day grace period to regain compliance, provided the Company (i) meets 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, and (ii) the Company notifies Nasdaq of its intent to cure the deficiency.

The Company intends to continue actively monitoring the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock between now and September 15, 2026, and will consider available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If the Company does not regain compliance within the allotted compliance period, 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 that determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel. 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.
