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

 

On September 3, 2019, Intec Pharma Ltd. (the “Company”) was notified (the “Notification Letter”) by The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) that it is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share, and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet the minimum bid price requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days. Based on the closing bid price of the Company’s ordinary shares for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the Notification Letter, the Company no longer meets the minimum bid price requirement. The Notification Letter has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market and, at this time, the ordinary shares will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “NTEC”.

 

The Notification Letter provides that the Company has 180 calendar days, or until March 2, 2020, to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). To regain compliance, the bid price of the Company's ordinary shares must have a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. If the Company does not regain compliance by March 2, 2020, an additional 180 days may be granted to regain compliance, so long as the Company meets the Nasdaq Capital Market continued listing requirements (except for the bid price requirement) and notifies  Nasdaq in writing of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period. If the Company does not qualify for the second compliance period or fails to regain compliance during the second 180-day period, then Nasdaq will notify the Company of its determination to delist the Company's ordinary shares, at which point the Company will have an opportunity to appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.

 

The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its ordinary shares and is considering its options to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under the Nasdaq Listing Rules.
