BANGKOK, Feb. 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NewGenIvf Group Limited (NASDAQ: NIVF) (“NewGen” or the “Company”) today issued a clarification that, in the press release titled “NewGen Receives Continued Nasdaq Listing Approval and Announces New Business Development Director” issued on February 20, 2025, the Company did not intend to imply that it has already achieved compliance with the Nasdaq Capital Market’s $2.5 million minimum stockholders’ equity requirement (the “Equity Rule”). However, during its 1st quarter to date, certain NewGen debtholders converted $2.3 million of debt to equity and the Company has drawn down approximately $4.3 million from its Equity Line of Credit with White Lion Capital. Therefore, the Company believes it has in excess of $2.5 million in stockholders’ equity as of this date. The Company is awaiting confirmation from Nasdaq that it has evidenced compliance with the Equity Rule. However, there can be no assurance that Nasdaq will determine that the Company has regained compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing rules.
NewGen further confirms that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the "Panel") granted an extension, allowing the Company additional time to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements, subject to meeting specific compliance criteria within designated timeframes. In accordance with the Panel’s extension, the Company has already made progress on its compliance plan (along with the update on the Equity Rule already noted above), including carrying out a reverse split on February 11, 2025 in order to regain compliance with the $1.00 bid price requirement (NewGen’s closing bid price has traded above $1.00 for six consecutive trading days as of February 19, 2025). The Company also intends to apply for transition to the Nasdaq Capital Market on or before February 26, 2025.
