Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On September 10, 2024, Shuttle Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), received a letter (the “Notification”) from The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”), dated September 10, 2024, notifying the Company that it is no longer in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) requires listed companies to maintain stockholders’ equity of at least $2,500,000. In the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2024, the Company reported stockholders’ equity of $801,434, which is below the minimum stockholders’ equity required for continued listing pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). In addition, presently, the Company does not meet the alternatives of market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations.

 

This Notification has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq has provided the Company with 45 calendar days, or until October 25, 2024, to submit a plan to regain compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity standard. If the Company’s plan to regain compliance is accepted, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from September 10, 2024 for the Company to regain compliance.

 

The Company is presently evaluating various courses of action to regain compliance and intends to timely submit a compliance plan to Nasdaq. However, there can be no assurance that the Company’s plan will be accepted or that, if it is, the Company will be able to regain compliance and maintain its listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If the Company’s plan to regain compliance is not accepted or if Nasdaq does not grant an extension and the Company does not regain compliance by October 25, 2024, or if the Company fails to satisfy another Nasdaq requirement for continued listing, Nasdaq could provide notice that the Company’s securities will become subject to delisting. In that event, the Company will have an opportunity to appeal Nasdaq’s decision to a hearings panel.
