Blue Hat Meets Nasdaq’s Minimum Bid Price Requirement Again
XIAMEN, China, April 07, 2025 — Blue Hat Interactive Entertainment Technology (“Blue Hat” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BHAT), a company based in the Cayman Islands, announced today that it received a letter (the “Letter”) from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) on April 2, 2025, confirming its compliance with the Nasdaq Capital Market’s minimum bid price requirement, effectively closing the matter.
Previously, on September 6, 2024, the Company was informed by Nasdaq that its listed securities’ bid price had fallen below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days, thus violating Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). Blue Hat had until March 5, 2025, to regain compliance. However, on January 24, 2025, the Company received a delisting notice (the “Delisting Determination”) because its securities’ closing bid price was $0.10 or less for ten consecutive trading days, prematurely ending the compliance period. The Company appealed the Delisting Determination and was granted an extension until March 31, 2025, to rectify the price deficiency.
The Letter stated that, as of March 28, 2025, Blue Hat had maintained a closing bid price of its ordinary shares at or above the $1.00 minimum requirement for the preceding 10 consecutive trading days. As a result, Blue Hat has successfully regained compliance with the Nasdaq Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
The Company will be under mandatory monitoring by a panel for one year from the Letter’s date, until April 2, 2026, to ensure continued compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, as per Nasdaq Listing Rule 5815(d)(4)(B). Should the Company fail to meet the Minimum Bid Price Requirement for 30 consecutive trading days, it will not be allowed to submit a compliance plan to the Staff, nor will the Staff grant additional time to regain compliance. A delisting determination letter will be issued, and the Company will have the opportunity for a new hearing with the original panel or a newly formed hearings panel if the original is unavailable.
