Delisting of common stock and warrants
Current report
On December 22, 2023, the Company received a notice (the “Notice”) from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq indicating that, unless the Company timely requested a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), the Company’s securities (common stock and warrants) would be subject to suspension and delisting from Nasdaq on January 3, 2024, due to the Company’s failure to satisfy the initial listing standards of The Nasdaq Capital Market upon closing of the Company’s previously announced business combination in accordance with Nasdaq Rule 5101-2. Specifically, the Company was unable to demonstrate compliance with the Stockholders Equity, Publicly Held Shares, Market Value of Listed Securities and Market Value of Publicly Held Shares requirements set forth in Nasdaq Rule 5505. The Company timely requested a hearing before the Panel, which resulted in a stay of any suspension or delisting action pending the hearing. The Company was granted until June 20, 2024 to demonstrate compliance with the above-referenced listing rules but was unable to do so by such date. As a result, on June 21, 2024, the Company received notice that the Panel had determined to delist the Company’s securities from Nasdaq and would suspend trading in its securities on the exchange effective at the open of business on June 25, 2024. Since the delisting, the Company’s common stock and warrants have been trading on the OTC market, OTCQB, with trading symbol “HGAS” and “HGASW”, respectively.
