Nasdaq Grants Guardion Health Sciences an Extension to March 15, 2021 to Regain Compliance with the $1.00 Minimum Bid Price Rule

SAN DIEGO, Jan. 27, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Guardion Health Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: GHSI) (“Guardion” or the “Company”), a specialty health sciences company that develops clinically supported nutrition, medical foods, nutraceuticals and medical devices, with a focus in the ocular health marketplace, announced that it has received a letter from Nasdaq granting it an exception until March 15, 2021 to evidence compliance with Nasdaq’s $1.00 Minimum Bid Price Rule.

President and Chief Executive Officer Bret Scholtes remarked, “We are pleased that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel granted the Company’s request to extend our opportunity to regain compliance with respect to Nasdaq’s $1.00 Minimum Bid Price Rule. We are encouraged by the recent increase in the Company’s share price, and we hope to be in a position in the near-term to be able to announce further progress in our business plans and strategies that could provide additional momentum to the trading price of the Company’s shares prior to March 15, 2021. If the Company’s share price does not reach the minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days as required to regain compliance with Nasdaq rules, the Company will effect an appropriate reverse stock split, which was previously approved by the Company’s shareholders, in order to regain compliance on or before March 15, 2021. Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Hearings Panel may monitor the bid price for up to 20 trading days before making its final compliance determination.”
