LAVAL, QC, Feb. 24, 2023 /CNW/ - Neptune Wellness Solutions Inc. ("Neptune" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: NEPT) ), a consumer-packaged goods company focused on plant-based, sustainable and purpose-driven lifestyle brands, today announced that the Company has received written notification from the Listing Qualification Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC on February 23, 2023, notifying the Company that it is no longer in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), as a result of Neptune not having timely filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2022 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Nasdaq notice has no immediate impact on the listing or trading of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The notice provides that the Company has until April 24, 2023 (that is, 60 calendar days from the date of the Nasdaq notice) to submit to Nasdaq a plan (the "Compliance Plan") to regain compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules. If Nasdaq accepts the Compliance Plan, Nasdaq can grant the Company an exception to extend for an additional 180 calendar days from the extended due date of the Form 10-Q filing date, or August 21, 2023, to regain compliance.
The Company is working diligently to file its Form 10-Q. While the Company can provide no assurances as to timing, Neptune expects to file its fiscal third quarter 2023 Form 10-Q in the near future, which would eliminate the need for the Company to submit a formal plan to regain compliance. Following the release of Form 10-Q, the Company will host a conference call to discuss and provide a business update. The conference call details will be announced in advance.
This announcement is made in compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt of a notification of deficiency.
