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

 

On September 26, 2023, Alzamend Neuro, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notice from the staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, for the previous 30 consecutive business days, the minimum Market Value of Listed Securities (“MVLS”) for the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), was below the $35 million minimum MVLS requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) (the “MVLS Rule”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company will have 180 calendar days, or until March 25, 2024, to regain compliance with the MVLS Rule. To regain compliance with the MVLS Rule, the MVLS for the Company’s Common Stock must close at $35 million or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days at any time during this 180-day period. If the Company regains compliance with the MVLS Rule, Nasdaq will provide the Company with written confirmation and will close the matter.

 

If the Company does not regain compliance with the rule by March 25, 2024, Nasdaq will provide notice that the Company’s Common Stock will be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market. In the event of such notification, the Nasdaq rules permit the Company an opportunity to appeal Nasdaq’s determination.

 

The foregoing letter received from Nasdaq 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 under the symbol “ALZN.”, subject to the Company’s compliance with the other listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market.
