Current report

Our failure to maintain compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing requirements could result in the delisting of our Class A common stock.

Current report

Our Class A common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). In order to maintain this listing, we must satisfy minimum financial and other requirements. On September 20, 2023, we received notice from the NYSE that the average per share trading price of our Class A common stock was below the NYSE’s continued listing standard rule relating to minimum average share price. Rule 802.01C of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual requires that a company’s common stock trade at a minimum average closing price of $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. On June 12, 2024, the Company effected a 1-for-30 reverse stock split (“Reverse Split”) of its issued and outstanding shares of Class A and Class B common stock. On July 26, 2024, we were notified by the NYSE that our Class A common stock had an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on July 26, 2024, and therefore we had regained compliance with the applicable NYSE continued listing standard. However, we cannot assure you that the stock price of our Class A common stock will continue to remain in compliance with this standard or that we will remain in compliance with any of the other applicable NYSE continued listing standards. The stock price of our Class A common stock may be adversely affected due to, among other things, our financial results, market conditions and market perception of our business.

Current report

In addition, the NYSE requires us to maintain an average global market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading-day period in excess of $50.0 million or, at the same time, stockholders’ equity equal or greater than $50.0 million. If our average global market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading-day period falls below $50.0 million and, at the same time, our shareholders’ equity is less than $50.0 million, we will not be in compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing financial criteria requirements. If the Company’s average global market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading-day period falls below $15.0 million, the NYSE will promptly initiate suspension and delisting proceedings. Given our current market capitalization, there is no guarantee that we will be in compliance with these financial criteria requirements in future periods.

Current report

The perception among investors that we are at a heightened risk of delisting could negatively affect the market price and trading volume of our Class A common stock. If our Class A common stock is delisted from the NYSE, the delisting could: substantially decrease trading in our Class A common stock; adversely affect the market liquidity of our Class A common stock as a result of the loss of market efficiencies associated with the NYSE and the loss of federal preemption of state securities laws; adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future on acceptable terms, if at all; result in the potential loss of confidence by investors, suppliers, partners and employees and fewer business development opportunities; and result in limited news and analyst coverage. Additionally, the market price of our Class A common stock may decline further, and stockholders may lose some or all of their investment.

Current report

The ultimate effect of the Reverse Split on the market price of our Class A common stock cannot be predicted with any certainty and shares of our Class A common stock have likely experienced decreased liquidity as a result of the Reverse Split.

Current report

On June 12, 2024, the Company effected the Reverse Split. The liquidity of our Class A common stock has likely been adversely affected and may continue to be adversely affected by the Reverse Split given the reduced number of shares of our Class A common stock that are now outstanding following the Reverse Split. As a result of the lower number of shares outstanding following the Reverse Split, the market for our Class A common stock may also become more volatile, which may lead to reduced trading and a smaller number of market makers for our Class A common stock. There can be no assurance that our share prices will attract new investors, including institutional investors. In addition, there can be no assurance that the market price of our Class A common stock will satisfy the investing requirements of those investors. The trading liquidity of our Class A common stock may not improve.
