Item 3.01 Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard
On May 2, 2018, vTv Therapeutics Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the requirement of NASDAQ Rule 5450(b)(2)(A) as a result of the market value of the Company’s listed securities (“MVLS”) being below $50 million for 30 consecutive business days. This notification has no effect on the listing of the Company’s Class A common stock (“Class A Common Stock”) on The NASDAQ Global Market at this time.
In accordance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company has 180 calendar days, or until October 29, 2018, to regain compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A). Compliance can be achieved automatically and without further action if the MVLS is at or above $50 million for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days at any time during the 180-day period. If the Company does not regain compliance during such period, subject to an appeals process, the Class A Common Stock may be removed from The NASDAQ Global Market.
The Company intends to monitor its MVLS actively and is currently evaluating its available options to regain compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A).
