MACA Moringa Acquisition Corporation

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

On June 15, 2023, Moringa Acquisition Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), received a written notice (the “Notice”) from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) (the “MVLS Rule”), which requires the Company to have at least $35 million market value of listed securities (the “MVLS”) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Notice is only a notification of deficiency, not of imminent delisting, and has no current effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Notice states that the Company has 180 calendar days, or until December 12, 2023, in which to regain compliance with the MVLS Rule. The Notice states that if at any time before December 12, 2023, the Company’s MVLS closes at $35 million or more for a minimum of ten (10) consecutive business days, the Nasdaq staff will provide written confirmation that the Company has regained compliance with the MVLS Rule.

If compliance is not achieved by December 12, 2023, the Company expects that Nasdaq would provide written notification to the Company that its securities are subject to delisting. At that time, the Company could appeal the delisting decision to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel. The Company will continue to monitor its MVLS and consider its available options to regain compliance with the MVLS Rule.
