As reported in an earlier alert, in April 2020, Nasdaq proposed, and the SEC approved, a rule enabling the delisting of securities with a closing bid price below $0.10 for 10 consecutive trading days or securities that have undergone reverse splits with a cumulative ratio of 1:250 during the preceding two years. However, the SEC has now approved another rule change that would delay the effectiveness of the earlier rule until September 2020.
