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

 

On July 19, 2024, Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notified New Horizon Aircraft Ltd. (the “Company”) that for at least the last 30 consecutive business days, the bid price for the Company’s Class A ordinary shares had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Rule”).

 

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until January 15, 2025, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. If at any time before January 15, 2025, the bid price of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company with a written confirmation of compliance with the Bid Price Rule and the matter deemed closed.

 

If the Company does not regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule by January 15, 2025, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180-day compliance period. To qualify, the Company would be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Bid Price Rule, and would need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the bid price deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.

 

If the Company does not regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule when required, Nasdaq will provide written notification to the Company that its Class A ordinary shares are subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel.

 

The notice from Nasdaq has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, and its Class A ordinary shares will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “HOVR”. The Company is currently evaluating its options for regaining compliance. While there can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule, the Company expects to cure this deficiency within the 180 day period.

This Current Report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties intended to be covered by the safe harbor for “forward-looking statements” provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. All statements other than statements of current or historical fact contained in this Current Report, including statements regarding the Company’s expected timeline for compliance with the Bid Price Rule and its intention to continue to comply with other Nasdaq’s Corporate Governance Rules, are forward-looking statements.

The Company has based these forward-looking statements on the current expectations about future events held by management. While the Company believes these expectations are reasonable, such forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company’s control.
