Salt Lake City, Utah, May 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TruGolf Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUG), a leading golf technology company, has clarified its plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq listing rules in response to shareholder inquiries. On August 19, 2024, TruGolf Holdings, Inc. received a written notification from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, the Company’s stockholders’ equity was ($10,508,104), and therefore, the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(A), which requires a $10,000,000 minimum stockholders’ equity standard (the “Equity Rule”). On May 15, 2025, the Company presented a plan to the Nasdaq Hearings panel on how it plans to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s listing rules and requested an extension to execute on the plan. To date the Hearings panel has not rendered a determination. There can be no assurance that it will provide an extension or move to delist. The key provisions of the plan were:

  • The Company converted approximately ⅔’s of the accrued dividends payable owed to the company’s founders to common stock.

  • The PIPE note holders agreed to exchange their outstanding notes and associated warrants for new preferred shares and warrants. All unissued notes would be canceled.

  • The Company has entered into an Equity Line of Credit for $20 million that could provide liquidity without reducing shareholder equity if additional funds to operate the business are required.

  • A reverse split would be approved by the Board, subject to shareholder authorization, if necessary to regain compliance with Nasdaq minimum pricing rules.

Chris Jones, CEO of TruGolf, had this to say about the plan. “The Company will be holding a special meeting of shareholders on May 30th to vote on actions relating to this plan. However, since disclosure of all details of the plan, the Company has received multiple inquiries requesting clarification of the purpose of the Equity Line of Credit that was entered into as part of the plan.” As reported in the Company’s first quarter Form 10-Q on May 15th. “TruGolf has a strong cash position of greater than $10 million which is more than adequate to satisfy its current operating needs. The line was put in place in the event that a special situation or opportunity may arise in the future so the Company could avoid debt when financing its actions.”
