To provide context, discuss (i) the May 20, 2024 notice from the NYSE stating that the Company is no longer in compliance with the NYSE continued listing standards due to the fact that the Company’s average total market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading-day period was less than $50 million and, at the same time, its stockholders’ equity was less than $50 million and (ii) the April 2, 2024 notice stating that the average closing price of the Company’s common stock was less than $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period and that failure to regain compliance with these standards may result in the delisting of your securities.
