Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard.
As previously disclosed on Form 8-K filed on February 4, 2025, Processa Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, for the previous 30 consecutive business days, the bid price for the Company’s common stock had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Requirement”).
On August 7, 2025, the Company received a letter from the Staff notifying that the Company is eligible for a second 180-day period, or until February 2, 2026 (the “Second Grace Period”) to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement. According to the notification from Nasdaq, the Staff’s determination was based on (i) the Company meeting the continued listing requirement for market value of its publicly held shares and all other Nasdaq initial listing standards, with the exception of the minimum bid price requirement, and (ii) the Company’s written notice to Nasdaq of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If at any time during this Second Grace Period, the closing bid price of the common stock is at least $1 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company with written confirmation of compliance.
The letter has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s common stock, which will continue to be listed and traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to the Company’s compliance with the other continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company will consider implementing a reverse stock split to regain compliance with the continued listing requirements.
