As previously disclosed, on April 3, 2024, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), because (i) the stockholders’ equity (deficit) of the Company of ($6,403,000) as of December 31, 2023, as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, was below the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement of $2,500,000 and (ii) the Company did not, as of April 3, 2024, meet the alternatives standards of market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations for compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). The letter indicated that the Company had a period of 45 calendar days from the date of the letter to submit a plan to regain compliance. The Company submitted its plan to regain compliance to Nasdaq on May 20, 2024.
On May 29, 2024, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that Nasdaq had reviewed the Company’s plan for regaining compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) and granted the Company a 180-calendar day extension from April 3, 2024 (or until September 30, 2024) to evidence compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1).

However, there can be no assurance that, if the Company does appeal any delisting determination by Nasdaq to the panel, that such appeal would be successful.
The Company intends to take all reasonable measures available to regain compliance under the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) and remain listed on Nasdaq. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), maintain compliance with the other Nasdaq listing requirements or be successful in appealing any delisting determination.

Iterum Therapeutics Receives FDA Acceptance of Resubmission of NDA for Oral Sulopenem for the treatment of Uncomplicated Urinary Tract Infections
--Oral Sulopenem NDA has been assigned a PDUFA action date of October 25, 2024--
DUBLIN, Ireland and CHICAGO, May 31, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Iterum Therapeutics plc (Nasdaq: ITRM) (the Company), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on developing next generation oral and IV antibiotics to treat infections caused by multi-drug resistant pathogens in both community and hospital settings, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has acknowledged receipt of the resubmission of the New Drug Application (NDA) for sulopenem etzadroxil/probenecid (oral sulopenem) for the treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infections (uUTIs) in adult women. Under the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (“PDUFA”), the FDA has deemed the Company’s NDA resubmission to be a Class II complete response which has a six-month review period from the date of resubmission. As a result, the FDA has assigned a PDUFA action date of October 25, 2024.
“We are very pleased that the FDA has accepted the resubmission of the NDA for oral sulopenem,” said Corey Fishman, Chief Executive Officer. “This significant milestone brings us one step closer to the potential approval of oral sulopenem for uUTIs providing patients and physicians with a much-needed treatment option for this underserved market. We look forward to continuing to work with the FDA during its review."
The resubmission includes additional evidence from the REASSURE (REnewed ASsessment
of Sulopenem in uUTI caused by Resistant Enterobacterales) clinical trial, conducted under Special Protocol Assessment agreement from the FDA, comparing oral sulopenem to oral Augmentin® in adult women with a uUTI, demonstrated that oral sulopenem was non-inferior to Augmentin® for the primary efficacy endpoint of clinical and microbiologic response at the test-of-cure visit for patients with an Augmentin® susceptible pathogen, with the difference in the overall success rate demonstrating statistically significant superiority of oral sulopenem versus Augmentin®.
