As previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K, on October 14, 2022, DatChat, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notification from The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company initially had 180 calendar days, or until by April 12, 2023, to regain compliance, and that if the Company was unable to regain compliance by April 12, 2023, an additional 180-days may be granted, so long as the Company meets the Nasdaq continued listing requirements (except for the bid price requirement) and notifies Nasdaq in writing of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period.

 

In accordance with the Notification Letter and Rules, on April 7, 2023, the Company notified Nasdaq in writing of its intention to cure the deficiency and requested an additional 180-calendar days in order to do so. On April 13, 2023, the Company was notified (the “Second Notification Letter”) by the Staff that the Company is eligible for an additional 180 calendar day period, or until October 9, 2023 to regain compliance and cure the deficiency, so long as the Company meets the Nasdaq continued listing requirements (except for the bid price requirement).

 

On October 4, 2023, the Company received notice from Nasdaq that the Company has regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
