BANGKOK, May 28, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NewGenIvf Group Limited (NASDAQ: NIVF) (“NewGen” or the “Company”), today announced that on May 24, 2024, the Company received two letters from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it is currently not in compliance with certain requirements under the relevant Nasdaq Listing Rules.

The first letter (the “MVPHS Deficiency Letter”) notified the Company that, for the preceding 35 consecutive business days of the MVPHS Deficiency Letter, the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares (the “Class A Shares”) did not meet the minimum $15,000,000 Market Value of Publicly Held Shares (“MVPHS”) requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rules 5450(b)(2)(C) (the “MVPHS Requirement”).

The second letter (the “MVLS Deficiency Letter”) notified the Company that, for the preceding 35 consecutive business days, the Class A Shares did not meet the minimum $50,000,000 Market Value of Listed Securities (“MVLS”) requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rules 5450(b)(2)(A) (the “MVLS Requirement”).

This press release is issued pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt(s) of a deficiency notification(s). The MVPHS Deficiency Letter and the MVLS Deficiency Letter have no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s Class A Shares, which will continue to trade uninterrupted on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “NIVF.”

Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(D), the Company has an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until November 20, 2024 (the “Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with the MVPHS Requirement. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company also has an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until the Compliance Date, to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement. If at any time the (i) MVPHS for the Class A Shares is at least $15,000,000 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days or (ii) MVLS for the Class A Shares is at least $50,000,000 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, the Staff will provide the Company written confirmation of compliance with such requirements, as applicable.

In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the above requirements prior to the expiration of the compliance period, it will receive written notification that its securities are subject to delisting. Alternatively, the Company may apply to transfer the Company’s securities to The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company intends to monitor the MVPHS and MVLS of the Class A Shares and may, if appropriate, consider available options to regain compliance with the MVPHS and MVLS requirements.
