Exhibit 99.1

 

MyMD Pharmaceuticals Regains Compliance with Nasdaq Minimum Bid Price Requirement for Continued Listing

 

BALTIMORE, MD – March 5, 2024 – MyMD Pharmaceuticals, Inc.® (Nasdaq: MYMD) (“MyMD” or “the Company”), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company committed to developing novel therapies for age-related diseases, autoimmune and inflammatory conditions, today announced that it received notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) on March 4, 2024 informing the Company that it has regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (“Listing Rule”) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

 

On October 11, 2023, MyMD received notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq indicating that the Company was not in compliance with the Listing Rule, as its common shares had failed to meet a closing bid price of $1.00 or more for 30 consecutive business days. The Company conducted a 1-for-30 reverse split of its common stock on February 14, 2024, with the goal of increasing the trading price of the common stock. The common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on February 15, 2024, under the new CUSIP number 62856X201.

 

For the Company to regain compliance with the Listing Rule, the Company’s common stock was required to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 or more for at least 10 consecutive business days. This requirement was met on March 1, 2024.
