Item 3.01, Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
On October 4, 2019, Kodiak Sciences Inc. (the “Company”) notified the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(2)(A), which requires that the Company’s Audit Committee be comprised of at least three directors who meet certain independence and other requirements, due to the expiration of the initial public offering phase-in period for compliance provided in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615(b)(1).
The Company has been in discussions with Nasdaq regarding compliance and expects to receive a Notice of Delisting from Nasdaq, indicating that the Company’s common stock will be subject to delisting by Nasdaq unless the Company timely requests an appeal before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
The Company will promptly make a request for an appeal, which will automatically stay any suspension or delisting action pending the issuance of the decision of the Nasdaq Hearings Panel following the hearing and the expiration of any additional extension granted by the Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
The Company is committed to satisfying Nasdaq Listing requirements relating to the composition of the Audit Committee before any formal delisting. The Company is actively searching for a qualified candidate to join as a third member of its Audit Committee.
