SAB Biotherapeutics Regains Compliance with Nasdaq Minimum Bid Price Requirement
SIOUX FALLS, S.D., Jan. 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SAB Biotherapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: SABS), (SAB), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company with a novel immunotherapy platform that is developing fully-human anti-thymocyte immunoglobulin (hIgG) for delaying the onset or progression of type 1 diabetes (T1D), today announced that it received notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ( Nasdaq ) on January 23, 2024 informing the Company that it has regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the Rule ) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
On January 23, 2023, SAB received notice from Nasdaq that the Company was not in compliance with the Rule, as its common shares failed to meet a closing bid price of $1.00 or more for 30 consecutive business days.

To regain compliance with the Rule, the Company's common shares were 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 January 23, 2024.
