DIH Holding US, Inc. Receives Additional Nasdaq Staff Determination Letter

DIH Receives Notice of Additional Basis for Delisting from The Nasdaq Stock Market

DIH Has Requested Hearing to Appeal before Nasdaq Hearing Panel

NORWELL, Mass., Sept. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DIH Holding US, Inc. (“DIH” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: DHAI) received a notice on September 12, 2025, from the Listing Qualifications Staff (“Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that it had failed to regain compliance under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A) (the “Bid Price Rule”) and, accordingly, the Staff notified the Company that this matter would serve as an additional basis for delisting. As previously disclosed, on March 11, 2025, DIH Holding US, Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice (the “Bid Price Notice”) from the Staff which notified the Company that the bid price of its Class A common stock had closed at less than $1.00 per share for the previous 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the Bid Price Notice, as required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market the Bid Price Rule. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company was provided a compliance period of 180 calendar days in which to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule, or until September 8, 2025 (the “Compliance Date”). The Company did not regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule by the Compliance Date, and, accordingly, by letter dated September 12, 2025, the Staff notified the Company that this matter would serve as an additional basis for delisting, so it would need to address it before the Nasdaq Hearing Panel (the “Panel”).

The Company has requested a hearing before the Panel, which has stayed the suspension of the Company’s Common Stock for a period of 15 days. In connection with this request, the Company also requested an extended stay of any further action pending the hearing (the “Additional Stay”) due to its non-compliance with the Reports Rule. At the hearing, the Company will present its plan to evidence compliance with all applicable listing criteria, including the MVLS Rule, the Bid Price Rule and the Reports Rule, and request an extension of time. The Panel has the authority to grant the Company an extension of up to 180 days from the date of the Staff’s delist determination for the MVLS and Bid Price Rules and 360 days from the initial filing delinquency. The Company is considering all options available to it to regain compliance with the MVLS Rule, the Bid Price Rule and the Reports Rule; however, there can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing or that the Company will be able to evidence compliance within the period of time that may be granted by the Panel.
