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

 

On March 4, 2024, Accelerate Diagnostics, Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that for the last 31 consecutive business days prior to the date of the Notice, the Company’s Market Value of Listed Securities (as defined under Nasdaq rules) was below the minimum of $35 million required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) (the “MVLS Requirement”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), Nasdaq has provided the Company with 180 calendar days, or until September 3, 2024 (the “Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement. If, at any time before the Compliance Date, the market value of the Company’s common stock (calculated in accordance with Nasdaq rules) closes at $35 million or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide written confirmation to the Company and close the matter.

 

The Notice does not result in the delisting of the Company’s common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market. However, in the event the Company does not regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement prior to the Compliance Date, the Company will receive written notification that its common stock will be subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the Staff’s delisting determination to a Nasdaq Hearing Panel.

 

The Company is evaluating potential actions to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement and intends to actively monitor the market value of its common stock. The Company may also, if appropriate, consider other options to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing standards, such as by increasing its stockholders’ equity to at least $2.5 million. There can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement or otherwise maintain compliance with any of the other Nasdaq listing requirements.
